On the worlds longest FZJ80 hunt, still. Each day I look at various internet sites for new listings in a few nearby states. During the past 3 weeks I twice had plane tickets in my hand to travel to Cali to buy two different cruisers, each time I missed them by a day or two as they had sold before I could get there. Major dissapointment!
When looking at online ads, often times the vehicle color is not listed or there are no pics. Also, it's hard for me to tell in some pics if the vehicle is green or black versus blue or grey... the former two Im not interested in.
Can I tell the color of the 80 by the VIN#? Example: JT3DJ81W4R0048375
Also, is there anything else I can tell from looking at the VIN? I realize a VIN can be read by a toyota dealer to see what options it came with but is there anything I can see on my own without a dealer lookup.
Regards,
Larry
