Hey everyone,

I'm new to IH8MUD but not to the world of 4x4s or offroading, but I am new to the FZJ80 world. I am in the market for one and found this ad: PRICE REDUCEUD TOYOTA LAND CRUISER 1996

Once I started communicating with the seller, it got sketchy. Wouldn't answer questions straight, gave me a VIN that was off the first time (by one digit, so it may have been a mistake), gave me the wrong date of ownership twice, etc. But other than it just seeming off, I can't find any evidence of fraud. Has anyone seen this vehicle before? I have a couple of the pics saved in case the ad gets taken down. If anyone knows this vehicle or has better investigative skills, I can PM you the VIN that I was sent.

Thanks!
 
If it gives you a bad vibe, pass.

Honest sellers are upright and willing to answer questions about their trucks.
 
That's a great looking truck but unfortunately the wife has drawn a line in the sand and it must have airbags...so that eliminates the early models

It's definitely well equipped. A little higher mileage than I was looking for though...and the whole thing about being a state away.
