1997 Toyota Land Cruiser Description
Up for sale is my baby.. Never in a million years did I think of selling her but financial struggles are at cause...
Its a 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser in absolutely impeccable condition. This is not your average FZJ80, this is truly something special and i'm sure whoever is reading this knows that. I am the second owner ( The first owner was my aunt and she bought this truck brand new in 1997 from our local Toyota dealer !) I have all of the original paperwork including the original window price sticker, Lo-Jack Alarm system, Owners manuals Two sets of keys and Fobs and a Bible of receipts and history. This is still a baby at only 119k all original miles. The truck has been pampered all its life and it truly shows.During my ownership, I have done quite a few things;
-Brand New 285 Pirelli ATR Tires-Oil Change every 3k miles-Brand New KYB Heavy Duty Shocks-Weather Tech all weather floor mats ( fron, rear, and cargo area.-Thule Roof Rack Pads-Sunroof Deflector-Undercoating of wheel wells-Undercoating of running boards-New Air Filter-Radiator Coolant Flush-New Alternator and Fresh Tuneup.-Brand New Interstate AGM battery.FULL STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST, MagnaFlow Catalytic converters, Denso O2 Sensors, Borla Stainless Exhaust.-Brand New Kicker CS series Speakers in all the doors and a Kicker CS series woofer in the trunk, all speakers encase the original housings to keep a clean OEM look but provide an AMAZING sound.-OEM wood kitAnd MUCH more...
This truck is in phenomenal shape for its age cosmetically and mechanically.. It drives like a TANK ! ... No vibrations, no rattles, no pulling.. Just pure Toyota Land Cruiser 80 series feels, a solid, durable, and amazing truck.
As many of you have asked when this truck was listed previously, it does not have the factory locking differentials, which in my opinion is a good thing. I have seen many of the FZJ80's equipped with lockers in non-functional condition and having many issues. If you choose to add lockers, I have researched that it is far more advised to add ARB Air Lockers which are far more reliable and put a lot less wear on the drive train, and then to have the vehicle re-geared. My truck has never been off-road and it shows !
This truck has NEVER been in an accident and has always been serviced at the Toyota Dealer.
EVERYTHING, I mean EVERYTHING works except the power antenna.
THIS TRUCK HAS NO LEAKS OF ANY KIND !!
I am asking a premium, however if kept in this condition, will only increase in value over the years.
One 40th anniversary just sold at auction with the same mileage for 18,000 and had a few issues.
There is the tiniest rust bubble on the rear lower hatch passenger side ( cannot even be seen unless you're right up against the rear hatch. This truck is 99.9% rust free and is beyond remarkable for its age !Although in excellent cosmetic and mechanical shape. This truck will be SOLD AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied simply due to its age.The first person to come see this truck will buy it, its simply that great. This truck is listed locally and I reserve the right to end the auction earlySERIOUS BUYERS ONLY PLEASE.
( THIS TRUCK WAS LISTED BEFORE BUT HAS NOW BEEN RELISTED DUE TO A NON PAYING BUYER )
Shipping is strictly in the responsibility of the buyer but I will assist with local pickup. A $1,000 non-refundable deposit must be made within 24 HOURS once the auction has ended. The remaining balance must be paid within 3 DAYS after the auction has ended only through Cash or a Certified bank check on pickup.
Thank you for looking and please feel free to ask any questions that you may have. Goodluck !!
