I've had a few 80 series, and one hundie Lexus before, and we just found ourselves with another hundy. A 99 with 215k, that spent most of it's life as a mall crawler in California as evidenced by the ht tires, wedding ring damage on the steering wheel, and the cleanest undercarriage I have ever seen on a car. Immaculate. It also has had a lot of preventative maintenance performed on it including 2 timing belts, the last one including the water pump and other goodies, heater Ts, fuel pump, etc...
These rigs really are a great size, perfect for long hauls with the family and all the gear.
This thread will serve as a photo dump and diy blog as I get around to doing stuff on it.
This link will take you to the full album with all 99 cruiser related photos and videos.

First up, delivered...
Had to replace the tired shocks. I don't know what was on there, they had a yellow shrader valve on them. Replaced with some lower mileage used Bilstein HD I got from a fellow mud member, thanks Mark! Installation was a piece of cake. Yeah the pass side rear top not was a little tedious, but really pretty easy. Great improvement in the ride.
Had to go for a quick test drive of course right around the corner from home...
