Why is the Rear Panhard bar perch hacked away at?

I think the issue a few are taking with this posting is that the title says "100% rust free" yet clearly there is some rust on the undercarriage. And you can see that some stuff has been rattle canned underneath, even if it was done prior to your ownership. Gives people an initial feeling of being mislead, even if that isn't the case. Clean rig, and good luck with your sale!

If I could change the ad title to virtually rust free after 21 years, I would.

I only have one negative, but it's my own thing. Black and green tend to be my least favorite colors on the LC/LX. The Sage color on the 40th Anniversary edition LC has to be my all-time favorite, though.

That said your LX is one of the CLEANEST and STRAIGHTEST rigs I have seen in some time. I think I may have to sell my LX and buy yours. WOW. Hmmmmm.... ride the motorcycle out and tow it back. LOL...

Actually black and white are the only 2 colors on the 80-series that have the clear coat mixed into the paint rather than over the base coat. This means deeper shine and no clear coat peeling off or burning ever! I do agree that black is harder to keep shiny but also easier to make it shine through again. I must admit this is a nice rig. The seats are in very good shape too, not as new as mine ... lol, but no major rips.
To be fair, surface rust is to be expected in ANY truck unless it has never seen water/ humidity. Toyota bolts can rust even in Arizona, Toyo doesn't coat bolts with zinc or other anti-corrosives. Unless they were made of aluminum, they will all rust eventually. If I were the owner, I would hose off the snow or whatever before taking those pics just to avoid any misunderstanding. OVERALL, a very nice truck. GLWTS.

Thank you so much for this post, very genuine and appreciated by me. It has sold and went to a very good home.
 
Thanks for taking the time to reply, even after it was sold and you didn't have to. That was very nice of you!
I'm glad it went to a good home. Good luck to you.

Nice looking truck man, congrats on the sale. Also, you did a waaaay better job than I would of responding to all of the "I think I see a fleck of rust" posts...
