So, thanks to all of your advice, I wound up buying a one owner, clean Carfax 2002 LX 470 w/187000 miles (timing belt and water pump replaced at 90,821 miles) for $7800 (including tax, title and license fees).
Everything seems to work with the exception of some issues around the multi-CD changer, DVD and Navigation system. It also has a couple of dings on the body. But ZERO RUST. It's a Texas truck that according to the Carfax report has spent it's entire life in Texas.
I'll probably wind up either replacing the passenger side running board or just removing the running boards altogether.
The passenger door has a little damage so I may or may not wind up addressing that. It's not really that noticeable.
Any recommendations for LX 470 parts will be greatly appreciated.
In the meantime, thanks so much for all of your advice.
