1997 Land Cruiser, Mild Build, Locked, in SoCal - $8950

SOLD!!!!!!!!

Clean title in my name. Clean Car Fax too.

I purchased this from the original owner back in 2010. He used it as a DD, but moved on to a BMW X5. I bought it stock, added some mods and used it for trips out to the desert. It has not seen any hard core wheeling, and passes California smog testing with no issues. I thought about putting in a Supercharger, but decided to move to a 100 series that can better handle towing my pop-up trailer. And because my wife said I could.



Current mileage is 152,426

Located in Menifee, CA (92585)


Recent maintenance:

Radiator

Radiator Hoses

Heater Valve

LandTank Blue Fan Clutch

Plug Wires, Plugs, Cap, Rotor

After I purchased it, I did a complete baseline of fluids including:

285/75/16 MT's have at least 50% tread remaining. (The spare is worn however).

No, the head gasket has not been replaced and it is not leaking.

I DO have a complete service history notebook that is about two inches thick. The first owner spared no expense when servicing this truck at the dealership. I have also done my best to retain receipts during my ownership.


The Not So Good:
There are some scuffs, scratches, and pin stripping here and there. Overall the paint is in pretty good shape for its age. It could use a waxing. The interior is in good shape but the driver's seat shows signs of wear.

The right rear plastic bumper wing is in poor shape. It cracked in the corner, so I heated the plastic and melted it back together. No very pretty, but still functional.

There is a small dent in the right corner of the rear hatch where I backed into a tree branch.

The passenger side seat will not move forward. It needs that plastic piece replaced.

The antenna will not go up or down; motor works, but plastic piece in broken.

No “D” light
