Ooo this is tempting. Any additionalI just got a killer deal on a '96 LS swap candidate (oil starved and seized 1fz). So, my 296k mile stock 1997 80 just became extra. Anyone local interested in it?
I bought it in Charlotte last summer, put tires on it, drove it through New England visiting family, and canonballed home. 3000 miles without a hitch. I'd do it again tomorrow. Very reliable stock white 99% rust free K292 1fz-fe. No evidence of ever having seen road salt. Suspension feels tight, and it handles great. Leaks some oil. Has a dent in the rear passenger quarter. Antenna broken. Needs a power steering gear installed (I have it) because the PO nicked it when he replaced the PS pump, so it makes a clicking noise. Half inch or so of receipts. Brake master at 255k, PHH and head gasket replaced at 230kish IIRC. Seats are worn but not ripped, but get this, it still has both seat tilt adjustment nubs, and all seat electrics work. New rear brakes last summer, and I have front pads for it. Older double-din bluetooth head unit wired to stock speakers. $10k firm local mud price.

Thanks so much,
