DespondentDeity 07/10/20 10:00:56 PM #8:	You would need to get access to the full maintenance history as well as accident reports before you even consider it. If the seller can't provide that, walk away immediately. He is asking a fortune for a vehicle with 275k miles, even if you could reasonably expect to double that. The timing belt interval is 120k on these, so it should have already been changed twice. Make sure the oil has been changed at a proper interval as well. If you see it in person, examine the undercarriage thoroughly with the brightest light you can get your hands on, looking for any signs of worn seals (fluid or moisture present) and deep rust on the frame. Since this is in California there's going to be a ton of rust under there, you need to scrape at it with a knife and if you expose bare metal there's likely nothing to be concerned about. You also need to drive it and stop it at a bunch of different speeds to get a feel for how it runs and to listen for any strange noise. If he's not willing to let you drive it for 50+ miles, walk away. Ask him if you can take it to a mechanic to have them check it out, this might cost you some money, but if you're buying a used car that's part of the process, if he doesn't let you, walk away. If you make an offer, start no higher than $4200. He's charging a bunch extra for the expensive tires and for the extra work he's done that doesn't effect the function of the vehicle, some of which is unfinished. --- https://imgur.com/8DBAEJJ \| https://imgur.com/U2ZWTrH I never be, I never see, I never know <cite>DespondentDeity posted [p:941953421] in Need some ...

LeperMessiahXX 07/10/20 10:23:52 PM #11:	I don't think you guys realize that some of these cars actually do go for crazy stupid money if they're in good condition. I understand why you laugh, but it's true. Google search "95 Toyota Land Cruiser" and look at the prices that pop up, some as much as $3000 more than this with similar mileage. I found this out when I started looking for decent off road vehicles. You're asking for even more money if you look at similarly aged Jeep Cherokees.

rookieplayer03 07/10/20 10:32:49 PM #12:	So theres a lot of misinformation here. Land Cruisers are extremely popular cars. In my area (SoCal), great condition FJ80 Land Cruisers sell for about $12k+. Great condition FJ40 Land Cruisers are like $25k+ Theyre on par with YJ and TJ Jeeps Wranglers on popularity. Theyre known to be extremely reliable and Toyota still makes parts for them. To the TC, to be honest, thats actually a lower price than expected for that mileage. Id definitely check to some underlying issues. --- Princes are born.

One thing that really threw me off was the assumption that California vehicles would have alot of rust, which is the complete opposite out here lol. If Im serious about this, Ill most definitely be taking it to a mechanic to have it inspected. Oh word, yeah I guess I based that assumption on cars I'd seen that were from Florida and other coastal states. I used to do inspections for Enterprise and we'd often get current year models from coastal states that had a complete coat of rust on the undercarriage. Now that you mention it, it wasn't as humid as I was expecting when I went to California a couple years ago. I live in the north and we get pretty bad rust on ours from the salt they put on the road. These Toyotas are extremely popular here too, along with the T100s, but it's rare to see one in as good of condition of the one posted here. --- https://imgur.com/8DBAEJJ \| https://imgur.com/U2ZWTrH I never be, I never see, I never know <cite>DespondentDeity posted [p:941957410] in Need some ...

One thing that really threw me off was the assumption that California vehicles would have alot of rust, which is the complete opposite out here lol. If Im serious about this, Ill most definitely be taking it to a mechanic to have it inspected.</quote> Oh word, yeah I guess I based that assumption on cars I'd seen that were from Florida and other coastal states.

And from those pictures either someone has taken very good care of that car or they had it restored.

Pitlord_Special 07/11/20 1:43:22 AM #35:	Honestly I wouldnt recommend getting into a vintage type car like that unless you do your own work on it or at least know someone who can work on it with you. I had a 91 Toyota pickup that was costing me over $1000 in repair costs every year the last few years (Had the 4WD need fixing, then needed a new clutch, then the AC compressor, then the cooling/radiator, then the ECU which caused a total shutdown and had to have it towed off the freeway...you get the picture). I had it until it blew the head gasket and I gave up on it at that point. --- Posted from my iPhone 8 <cite>Pitlord_Special posted [p:941960140] in Need some ...

It would be a fun vehicle to own but it is a gas guzzler and you will most likely have to dump some more money(maybe even a lot more) into it in the near future. --- Stay swell and swole my friends of freedom! <cite>candyapplered posted [p:941960172] in Need some ...

Blbmbr666 07/11/20 2:31:01 AM #39:	If I was looking for a daily driver there's absolutely no way I'd be dropping that much on a car with over 250k miles. If this is a hobby car, sure why not. I don't know much about that make and model but checking standard things like looking for fluid leaks, making sure it shifts smoothly while driving, engine idles evenly at a reasonable RPM, steering and brakes feel responsive are all good general things to check out for a used vehicle. As someone previously said, receipts or repair logs should be requested. --- Falco New World Order: https://imgur.com/iOYw6Ss https://imgur.com/dIifHyi <cite>Blbmbr666 posted [p:941961317] in Need some ...
