Not mine, but here you go... There's some history on it if that helps.
I nearly bought it for $7K from another gentleman in IA and the frame along with it that needed swapped. I should have done it, but I didn't. That's a mistake on my part. He swaps the frame and tries to sell it with that same bent from bumper for $13K. It didn't sell and now it has a fresh bit of paint and plenty of undercoating to cover up the nasties... And you guessed it, it's doubled again to $29.5K. His description:
"1973 Land Cruiser. Runs like a top, starts extremely fast and easy. Holley carb, KW struts, brand new paint job and rust repair work. Completely rust free! The paint has beautiful metallic that didn’t come through with the lighting. Seats in rough shape, but have leather and materials to reupholster them to better-than-new condition. I may get around to that before we sell, but if I do price will go up slightly (probably to 31-32 with it being a 95% show truck after seats). PM me if interested. Shoot me offers, but I’m pretty firm on price."
Take a good look at the "hood up" pic and the shot of the front end looking up. Everything appears to be taped off and a poor job at that... "95% showtruck" is 95% BS...
I understand this is a free market and people will pay what they wish to pay and buy what they wish to buy, but after speaking with the prior owner, we both agreed this vehicle has been continually misrepresented, so please look at it thoroughly.
I resisted posting on this vehicle and seller for months, but if we can't be part of a community that approaches each interaction with an ethical foundation, then why bother, right? If this commentary from me is inappropriate I can edit or remove it. Just be careful folks...
