Plus both heads were "done" ?!?

Another rare v6 80 i guess. So what was done? Rebuilt head is nice but im guessing it just had the HG replaced.

That one has been around a while too.

Its people like @jamesurq driving the prices up :flipoff2:
 
I had a hard time with this one .... post it in the For Sale section or the Funny picture thread.

Yup just ignore the rust that is under the diamond plate I used to hide the holes and rust that is destroying the body but then maybe it is a rare diamond edition and that was factory goes along with the rare FJ40 Safari edition that was posted on craigslist out here several times.
 
Looks pretty good to me. Price seems a wee bit high and the pics don't show much. The dash could be an overlay. No pic of the driver seat (wear point). This truck has most likely been painted. I don't think Mr. T used base/clear on the 60's. Mine is single stage.
 
Does the A/C work? Yeah, as Johnny said it'll need paint sooner than later. Rust on the roof is not something you want to play around with. Get some paint on it.
 
Alright, I probably will regret this along with at least 3 of my other 9 previous Land Cruiser sales but I know that my favorite color for the 62 series is the Charcoal Grey color and that's what I want to own long term so the red will need to go despite the protests of the females in the family. I have my sights on another ONSC member's grey 62 to buy sometime next year TBD if all goes well, so putting out feelers now for "Mario" as my oldest daughter named him. We have owned him since Sept. 2011 and my understanding is that we are 4th owners. Purchased new in Savannah, GA and then owners #2 and #3 were in Atlanta. Mario was taken care of by my good friend Peter Merriam and that's where i found him....sitting for 9+ months behind Peter's shop. At the time my oldest daughter was in the throes of battling Lyme's disease and one day i happened to ask her what her "dream" vehicle was, expecting to hear a pickup truck as at the time she had been into horseback riding. She surprised me by describing a red land cruiser with automatic transmission (she had struggled learning how to drive a stick) but with manual windows. Well we got 90% right and surprised her with it for her 18th birthday on 10/17/11: 173k miles and running pretty good.

Happy day, one i will cherish forever! She hadn't done much smiling in the few years before that. She drove it her senior year and then attended college locally and drove it a second year. Her Sophomore year she wanted to go out of state and it was best to get her a more economical and dependable vehicle...well the Volvo wagon proved not to be as dependable but the Subaru Forrester later did! So for the past 2.5 years dad has "suffered" driving the 62, fighting off passive aggressive attempts by wife and daughter #2 to drive it! So just hit 199k miles but very recently had top head rebuilt by Trollhole's and Marshall has been taking care of him since I met him about 2.5+ years ago. Front end has been rebuilt, new power steering pump....Marshall says it's the cleanest, nicest 62 he's ever worked on but I am suspect....I've seen some pretty sweet vehicles at his shop. Here are some pics from today:

Hit me up with a price you are looking for with a pm please.
 
This looks like a pretty decent truck for sale in Charlotte. Price seems to be at market and not too overinflated. Wish it had a factory soft top but it looks like a Bestop.

Wish I were in the market ...
