Hey all, I have a pretty big move potentially coming up and it’s time for me to let go of my toy as I just got into a Tundra.

It’s a 23 year old truck with 23 year old truck problems. It’s not new, it’s not mint, but I daily drove it for the last 6 months without issue and just drove it to Utah and back to Houston, Texas where it is located.

Please don’t waste my time, I’ll expect phone calls after the first few messages from each individual to prove their serious and not just window shopping.

Here are the details:

1997 Toyota Land Cruiser 40th Anniversary

- 267,000 miles - Head Gasket Job done by previous owner

- Working front center and rear lockers

- Old Man Emu Heavy Lift

- Blue Fan Clutch

- Knuckles rebuilt by previous owner

- Re Geared to 4:88 Gears

- 35” Cooper Mud Terrains

- Custom sliders

- Rear 4x4 labs swing out bumper

- Front Ironman4x4 bumper with smittybilt winch

- new front rotors and pads


The Bad:

- it was an Oregon truck so there is some rust underneath, not bad and mainly surface. (Video provided to serious inquiries)

- Exhaust leak on the Y pipe, partially wrapped. Doesn’t throw codes and passes emissions. Just a slight audible annoyance. (Once again, video provided to serious inquiries.)

- It’s 23 years old with 267,000 miles, yes it leaks. Doesn’t drip as of yet, only seeps

- Could use a Heater control valve (fairly cheap and super easy to install) Please message me if seriously interested.



Truck is in Houston Texas. I’m asking $14,000. Thank you for your time.

Edit: Price lowered to $13,500

As someone from Texas, I’ve always been taught that northern vehicles get rusty due to salted roads during the winter. Oregon is pretty north haha.

What I’m telling you is you can run vehicle history reports with the license plate now. You can even find the vin with the license plate.
The Vin Number is JT3HJ85J4V0173662

Oregon does not typically equal rust, just the opposite usually. Midwest and northeast states throw down tons of road salt that eats cars for breakfast, so you need to be diligent if buying from there. Even here in Utah we don’t use near the amount of salt as “the rustbelt” so our rust is very minimal

Hmm, ya learn something new every day! Well, it received it rust from somewhere! I’m not sure where else it has lived in the last 23 years.
