Eric, Is there some tech to this? Otherwise, I will have to move it.
 
Rare? FZJ80

If this is rare.... thats cool.
If it had leather, it would be exactly like mine ,year, color, toyota bush bar, glass, hitch, locked... even mileage, Mine is no. 301
 
I love the exterior color. Looks great!

Um, brown carpet with grey seats???? WTF?

The dash looks... muddy????

The damage multiplier would have to go!

267,000 miles? With that paint? Its been repainted I'd bet.

I'd be scared to death of that interrior mismatch on a car in Florida or Louisiana or Missouri or Mississippi... you get the idea.
 
I have been looking and looking at the auction. There is no description, nowhere does it say it runs.

They go out of their way to not show the driver's side except the speedo, so no tach at idle as most car auctions show to show it runs. Nothing of the rear area nor mention of third row seats. All in all my spidey sense is tingling and says stay away (not that I was in the market)

It does not say it is locked, maybe they were removed? don't work?

I missed the brown carpet, that is odd. My grey velour interior has grey carpet.
 
ZERO feedback - run far, run fast.

The seats are WAY too perfect for as nasty as the dash is.

The carpet could be just a strange anomaly in color but I would ask for more pics.

Ditto what 94LC mentioned, seems strange that they neglected to show the whole dash or the engine bay.
 
Even trade, but the shipping of the rack is going to be more expensive.

PM me if you're serious and are willing to give me the shipping difference. I.e. toss me a working factory clock w/ alarm & stopwatch + $15 and we have a deal.

Fair notice... You know that roofracks kinda suck, right?

I'll trade my clock for your roof rack.

lol
 
That is really strange the dash is SO F-d up and the rest of the interior is clean... unless the owner vomited every morning all over the dash, something is wrong w/ that truck
 
romer, i think the tech was originally a rare locked cloth 80 example which is kind of techy, but now it is spot the danger signs in an ebay auction tech..

one non warning sign is it is a Toyota dealer!

i agree the seats don't seem to match the dash. dash looks like it has mold/water damage. look at the wear on the shifter and shift console as well and the carpet looks discoloured.

otoh the body looks great. quite surprising for 267k.

I was kidding. I hate the clock but it's better than a hole. I figured you would not want to trade. Sorry.

Tha 0 fb did not bother me until I looked closer. They have 50% on two deals the negative cancels the positive so 0 fb. Another reason I dislike ebay.

I took the rack off today and spent the last hour rubbing off the first two of the four rows of gummy snot that the rails were held on with. I'm POed enough to just want it gone tonight. :-) If you have the clock with alarm, then it doesnt suck 1/2 as bad as the one without. To Linex the whole roof or just the have to cover sections? That is the question. Unless I were there local and could test drive this to a trusted mechanic, I'd stay far away from it. Curtains not matching drapes is livable. Oak floor with gray interior... Something isn't right. Throw on the too new paint, miles, stained console... Bad signs indeed.
 
You guys need new monitors. On my snazzy new 24" Apple theatre monitor the carpet looks like faded stock carpet - on the beige side of grey, but in the range. It also stands to reason that it would be more likely to see mismatched seats added from another car to a flood car. Putting in used carpet from another car is a huge amount of time to screw around with on a car with over a quarter million on it. I'd call the dealer and ask what's up with the filthy water spotted dash and remain wary but wouldn't instantly condemn it due to the faded/dirty carpet. I'd also ask about the locker switch and if it's not there or something other is strange THEN I'd be running, not walking. Also, the slider rr windows came with the third row and I think I see the outline of one folded up in a shot.

You guys dont live close enough to florida do ya? :) ....my guess would be sun damage on the dash. My 80 series that I parted out had the dash looking that after it sat in the sun with the roof off for a few weeks. Just my guess, because I dont think a dealership would not clean mud off a dash if they are going to ebay it. Also most mud wipes off plastic, unless its from GA....
