Lowest Mileage 70 Series

[Gun Runner 5]

Is this the lowest mileage 70 Series in North America?

It's not the number of miles, it's the type that counts, along with how well it was maintained. I've always been wary of too good to be true, low mileage vehicles

Looks nice though

I believe that cruiser was imported to Texas. Had some window rot on the sides and window frame was pretty rough. Needed a new one.

I wasn't interested in buying it but thanks for the advice any way.

No. I meant history on it. Was posted a bit ago. May be able to dig up more info on actual miles

I think Wayne has got an even lower mileage 70 Series but 41,000kms is incredibly low mileage for a vintage Cruiser.

Greg Miller has a number of 7x cruisers in his museum with less than 1,000KMs.

Ok .... Let me re-phrase.
What is the lowest mileage 70 Series in North America that ISN'T in a museum?

I cant believe I was offered a 89 BJ74 JDM with 9000klms for $9000 in 2003 by a local importer.It still had the plastic on the doors
I often wonder whose driveway it is in now.

This is in kilometers so 9030 miles.

That is some awesome low mileage,is it verified? Best check is to look at the pedals,carpet,driver seat,steering wheel and shifter knob.

After dealing in Cruisers for over 20 years now I know that at many different places in the world turning the odometers back seemed like "must do" for many shady sellers.I look at the odometers but the condition of the before mentioned parts is where I make my decision on.

Awesome to see there are still many low miles cruisers around,lowest one I own is a 1994 KZJ70 with 130k km or about 81 k miles on it.

I have the French inspection papers from year to year which back up the mileage. I was overly skeptical but couldn't disprove the mileage. The 70 was a vehicle that lived its entire life at a second home of a gentleman on Corsica island. He wheeled it so I'm sure it took some abuse but couldn't accumulate many miles on the 114 mile long island. I have all kinds of receipts for "rodent deterrent" and radiator flushes over the years!

Sorry for the hijack but do you perhaps have a part number for that cluster ? I would love a rev counter cluster for my 99 model

G'Day Fella's,

LZFJ40, looking at the smooth/worn finish on the steering wheel, the mileage/Km's or the steering wheel, may not original?

D'oh!
