Not my car, no affiliation, just saw the ad. Everybody wants a Troopy outfitted for "overlanding", and here's one that looks ready to go at not a terrible price. Seller claims 150k miles on it, no rust, well maintained, lots of maintenance already done, and it's outfitted for camping with a seemingly tidy layout and execution.
Listed price is 26000 Euro, which is about US$28000 today. The exchange rate is pretty good right now. Figure maybe $4-5k all-in to get it from seller's driveway in France to yours in the USA.
Here's the photos from the ad:
The seller's description is lengthy, and in French (of course), so here's a Google Translate version:
"TOYOTA HZJ 75, very good general condition, monitored and maintained, no costs to be expected, African model (air conditioning), 4.2 liter naturally aspirated diesel engine, 6 cylinders, distribution by cascades of gears, raid equipped, never crossings, used only for walks 4x4
