Looking for an 80 series...

[wcrowlen]

Hey guys,

I'm (hopefully) soon to be on the market for an 80 series LandCruiser. I'm new to this - grew up with a Ford Bronco, then drove a Camry for a looooong time, and now I'm ready to transition back into an SUV type vehicle. Wife and I decided a LandCruiser would be the best option.

We have to sell her car (2004 Honda Accord, btw) first, but we're hoping to get $4500 for it. So hopefully in the next few weeks, we'll be in position to make a move on something. We've found a few around that would fit into that budget, but any help being on the lookout would be great. I'm looking for something relatively stock as well - I've never really done a lot of work on cars, but I've always been interested in doing it.

Really looking forward to following the board. Heard great things about the CottonLand group!

Welcome!

This is a good group of guys, with a ton of knowledge.

Looking forward to seeing you with a nice 80!

Got one you are looking at?

Found one in Brookhaven for around $4000, and the one you sent me in Jackson.

Post the details here when you get them.

Whats your budget? I will have to part with one soon. Its either my 80 or 100.

I can't coment on your 100 as I've never seen it but I have seen your 80 and it is extremely well done.

Hows the search coming along, C?

Sorry for the hit and run post from a few weeks ago - we thought we had a buyer lined up for my wife's car, then it fell through, then it looked like we had one, then it fell through, now it finally looks like it's going through.

So I'm looking for either a 60 or 80 series. Budget is $4500. We're in Brookhaven, MS.

 

[MScruiser]

So 60 series now?

That's a whole different kind of animal. Maybe a little too Spartan for the Mrs.

Still thinking 80, but wouldn't be opposed to a 60 if one turned up.

But yeah - 80.
