Buying a cruiser and looking for some help (1 Viewer)

[cruiser_hopeful]

I am going to check out a used Land Cruiser in Vista on Saturday. I was wondering if anybody would be willing to come and check it out with me. I would provide lunch of course.

Here's the craigslist ad

1993 toyota land cruiser

Thanks in advance.

I can't make it, but make sure to check out Slee Off Road's newbie guide. It will give you the majority of stuff to look forward. That and don't forget your "gut instinct."

When I showed up to check out the cruise, I received a pleasant surprise. It was equipped with factory lockers. The carfax said it only had three owners. I test drove it, did a quick look around then offered the guy $2600. He took it. It looks like it has 283k miles, but I feel I stilll got a good deal. I will be taking it to SD Trux this week or next week to have them check it out.

Good deal. Keep an eye on the classifieds for an ECU from a 94 as I think the 93 ECUs have quirks. Post up some more pics when you get it checked out and cleaned up.

You didn't buy it if there are no pictures! Contrats!!
