Hi, my 97 lx450 is for sale! I have posted it previously in various forums, so you may have seen this ad before.
I have owned this one for a few years. Two owners before me, of which the last had it since early 2000s.
Quick details:
1997
100k miles
Triple locked
2.5 inch lift with more or less brand new tires (33s)
Prinsu roof rack
Asking price: 17,500
As I have mentioned in the other sales ads (I suspect some members here will have seen my other ad), this is a NY truck, and it has always been in NY. It has, however, not become a rust victim. Understood, it takes an inspection to trust that statement, and I welcome that. I am not against shipping this to out of state buyers, but again, I recommend having a look at it first, alternatively sending a friend over to check it out.
I have tried to list all that I know below, and in my other ad (in one of the Land Cruiser facebook groups) I wrote a lot of details.
It runs really well, shifts perfectly, no smoke, AC works really well, all windows go up and down.
You will not find any rot on this truck. Of course it has had some surface rust, any car in a state that has rain will have surface rust. But that is easily treated and I would consider this one to be very good from a rust perspective.
I have plenty of photos and video clips, happy to send them over!
A lot of maintenance done
Knuckles
Radiator
PPH
Valve cover gasket
New master brake cylinder
Coolant flush
Tie rod ends
all fluids of course
And other things I can’t recall right now
Good to know:
I have brushed surface rust off certain areas, and put rust converter on. I have not painted the frame with a thick covering paint.
I have videos of the type of rust I have brushed off, and I have a video of underneath when I put the car on a lift
I had a small accident about 10-12 years ago, which resulted in some clear coat peel and scratches. I have had those areas repainted.
The ABS light goes on and off, and I feel the ABS working. I managed to tear the wiring off for both the ABS and the rear locker, hence a buyer should think about putting new connectors there.
Airbag light is on
The front seats look a little weird. I put some surface filler on them a while back, which darkened when it dried, and I have not yet re dyed the seats. Also a seam had partially opened up in the drivers seat, and I have temporarily stitched it together.
Rear doors do not lock and unlock using the central locking function.
Driver side rear view mirror is wobbly
I do not have the third row seat
I think the brakes are a bit soft, but they bite really well.
