I am starting a new job and will be spending more time away from the property where what is left of the 80 is located, this part out has about run its course, It is time to start a parts thread and showcase only whats left, if you want to contact me about small easy to ship parts, or if you can pick up in N FL i may be able to work something out but be prepared response time will be slow.
I want to Thank all of you who purchased parts, my 80 lives on in your 80 and between the proceeds of this sale combined with other funds we will be getting mom another Toyota, unfortunately not a land cruiser, just not in the budget.
Thank you

A few months ago my LX450 was crushed by a tree in the driveway, after looking at several options a part out is the best course.

Drive parts now available
This is a rust free 1996 Lexus LX450 with 261K miles, black and grey exterior and a oak/tan/brown interior,
Most of the LX450 parts will also fit 95 -97 Toyota land cruisers, there are a few differences center console, radio, AC, body cladding, grille and headlights, some parts will also work on 93/94 cruisers though the interior is different, and a select few LX 450 body parts will fit on all 80 series 1991 to 1997
If you have a question about part interchange shoot me a PM, I know quite a bit but not everything.

Lift gate, passenger side rear sliding window, rear passenger side door, pass side 2nd row seat, sun roof, head liner and windshield were destroyed by the tree , the hood got some small dents, it is usable depending on your standards,
The interior of this one has seen better days, drivers seat, steering wheel, are not in good shape, carpet is rough, the reaming straight body parts are in very good shape,
Unfortunately I am in desperate need of a replacement vehicle that can safely and reliably get my mom to her treatments every three weeks and also tow my trailers, this LX450 was designated for that role and its loss has made logistics difficult for both of us, I apologize in advance but I cannot sell these parts quick on the cheap, my family needs what funds can be salvaged from this vehicle to procure another one, for like new parts I am looking for about %40 of new part price, or what the market will bear whichever is lower, less if it is not like new, I parted out a 97 LX450 here several years ago and everyone seamed happy with the customer service I provided, I will do my best to take care of any problems after the sale. i want you to be happy with your purchase, for payments paypal is easy, I will also accept personal checks from long standing members.
Shipping will be my best estimate of actual shipping cost, small parts that will flat rate ship may be quoted with a shipped price, I am mainly using USPS, other services may be used if needed. I live out in the sticks, a trip into town soaks up the better part of a day, so I would like to keep shipping days to twice a week, Monday and Thursday, I apologize in advance for any delay this causes in receiving your parts.
If you are interested in a part post here or send me a PM, I can take pictures of part condition as needed so you know exactly what you are buying.
Larger parts that cannot be shipped (anything that will not fit, or that I do not want in the trunk of my LS400) will have to be picked up in person here in Dixie county FL. I am about an hour west of Gainsville near the coast and the Suwannee river.
I will keep the following post up to date with what is available and not available,
Highlights of available parts:
Check back often I have some interesting and unusual 80 series parts that will be going up. prices are without shipping unless noted. "shipped" prices are for continental US.
