Spoke with the supposed Owner. Something is off. May be using pics from another ad. Google VIN and results indicate truck was in NV.

Very likely indeed. I spoke to the true (at the time) owner a few years ago when it was listed for sale here, and BAT shortly before that. It was located in Needham, MA at the time. I don't know if he actually sold the truck, but the photos are the same ones from the original listing. Note that the photos showing the tailgate with the MA plate are curiously missing from the ebay auction...

Hey party people, anyone in the area that could do an "inspection" for me? I can shoot you some cash via paypal. I would love this ride and have been in contact with the seller, just want to ensure it is legit before i have them ship it out to me.

Good eye rusty77, trying to get my in to the land cruiser love. Just drove a beautiful 2018 v-8 turbo diesel for 6 months while i was deployed and need my fix stateside. The 60s are the sweet spot for me.
 
Talk to the dude, talked to the shipping guy, all seemed legit. Wired the money. I will let you guys know when it gets here and throw up some pictures. Wish me luck!
 
Seems *TOTALLY* legit.

Going on a hunch here... was the guy's last name "Marks" by any chance?

Did the seller handle the shipping arrangements?
 
Four weeks have passed since wiring the money. I hope @dodgingwords is simply too busy enjoying his new 60 to post back in this thread.
