cruiser mechanic in Ottawa to inspect a 100 series (1 Viewer)

[geetarking]

Looking for a mechanic shop in Ottawa to inspect a 100 series cruiser I've found for sale.

I'm in Calgary and would like someone to go through it before I commit to shipping it out here.

Would need an out of province inspection for plates, and would hate to find out it needed a bunch of work.

Any suggestions?

Send it to the nearest Toyota dealer.

Belair Lexus is the place I would recommend. They have a mechanic there very familiar with Land Cruisers and LX's. Because this is Ottawa be aware these vehicles can develop significant chassis rust if they have driven in winter snow-salt here, with no rust protection. Good luck.

Did you post the question in the True North club chapter, there hasn't been a lot of activity on their site but someone will likely respond.

I second the Lexus dealer, very few Landcruisers in the 100 series are in Canada.

p.s. if it's a 99 LC you're considering, I looked at it a few weeks ago and can give you my impressions if you PM me.
