Selling my 97 LX450 - Not Locked

I'm the second owner. Bought it about 7 years ago in Texas with 115k miles. Carfax was clean and showed one prior owner and had been in Texas it's whole life. Partial service history through Carfax and Lexus showed regular maintenance.

Drove it to Montana and put it into use as a daily driver.
It now has 183k miles. Has been Mud (over) maintained since I've had it.

Details on the truck then maintenance I've done.

Silver
Loaded like all LX's are.
Original stereo and CD changer - works fine, few lights out.
Running boards removed - OEM Lexus mudflaps added.
Sunroof works properly, tilt and slide.
3rd row seat included.
No Lockers - added center diff switch.
Power seat functions work properly.
Leather in good shape, no tears, some cracking on driver
Underside is clean, everything comes apart nice and easy.
Few hail dents on the roof from a storm last summer. I think it's had some paint work on the passenger side. Color match is excellent. Carfax is clean so IDK.


Maintenance:

-Tune up when I bought it - plugs, wires, dist cap and rotor, dist o-ring, valve cover gasket, all fluids, belts and idlers, intake tube.
