JT3HJ85JXV0178414
1997 Toyota Land Cruiser
Triple Locked, 282k miles
Clean title, pink slip ready
California car
No Rust
Stock minus a few small upgrades (2" Dobinson lift & drawers)
2 previous owners (1st owner 5 years, 2nd owner 18 years) - purchased from an older gentleman (grandpa owned!)
Head gasket was done in my ownership - paperwork included
This is my second 80 that I bought to refresh it to the ih8mud standards and ideally I'd like to sell to another fellow enthusiast who can appreciate the work. I bought the trucking during the summer of 2021 and most of the work below was done during my ownership. The truck was a disaster. It was well taken care from the mechanical side as the previous owner took it to a mechanic in Mountain View, CA - Yarnells. The bad part was the interior was bad. The majority of the work was cleaning, redoing the interior, head gasket, and the lift.

No low balls. Please make reasonable offers. I won’t just take $5k off just because you messaged me.
