I bet Will payed more then that for it. I didn’t bid because I figured the reserve would have been higher.
High bidder stole it !!!
Resent LJs have gone for that money
On Bring a Trailer.

As an owner of another diesel pickup (not NEARLY as nice as yours), I really had no idea of the market value. Guess a lot of people are holding their purses a bit more tightly these days...

Well, it was a fun project.
Congrats to Mr. Osama. He flew into town this morning and is driving the truck back home to Chicago! He is a true Toyota enthusiast.
It was hard to see the truck go, but the correct decision for myself and my family.
I am going to take a little break from the Toyota scene for a while. But I really appreciate all of the great people I have met through the Land Cruiser community.
Thanks for following along. Adios!

Congrats to the both of you!
Probably listed 6 months or even a year too late. Prices have been dropping and on Bring a Trailer a lot or ending in reserve not met.

Diesel land cruisers are the best land cruisers.
Why?

Sometimes twice the miles per gallon is their gasser colleagues.
Add a turbo and they sound amazing and sometimes even go faster.
Best part: not a carburetor or spark plug in sight.

Just got the diesel swapped lx450 (1hd-fte, gturbo red wheel, +70% injectors, PDI FMIC, h152 5-speed, 37s) back to ATX. Drove it in from MD.
Big fun for 1500 miles. Want to pass someone? Just squeeze the throttle a bit.
558 ft-lbs @ 3000 rpm on tap puts a grin on my face every time.
Taking it to OKC this weekend. Denver for Christmas.
Only gets 16mpg doing 80-85mph though.
Since this is the 70-series forum, I’m putting the same combo (but 35s) in a 75.

Are you also going to convert the 75 to an automatic?

No, but it has a h151f in it now.
Turned the Unichip down to a lean AFR. Maybe the mpg will improve.
