Hopefully carfax is good. Tires are a bit bonkers, probably makes ridiculous road noise. The only problem I can see is mismatching spare.

I’m sick to my stomach. I’m in the market, but my cash isn’t right to splash $14K because Q4 tax payments. Somebody please buy this thing and enjoy it!!

You can get this Gen of LC for ~$3000-6000 depending on miles and rust. $8k in upgrades? I’m not 100% on this one.

Also, having worked around trucks that get these kinds of tires added, the knobs do a number on bushings and shocks with the constant and heavy vibration.

People will pay for a clean, rust-free 80 series. The mods also seem to be tasteful, and would add to the value. I would really need to see the interior to make a better guess, but I could see this going for $11,000 based on maintenance and the condition of the interior. If the interior is bad (no pictures are suspicious) then no more than $9-10k. I know LCs last largely forever, but 180k miles is still pretty high.

They should have put a few more “rare”s in there so we know that they literally built tens of thousands of fzj80's.

“ RELIABLE 4.5L V6 ENGINE”

AAAAAANDthey are idiots.

This is crack pipe all day long, you can find trucks like this on Ih8mud with a few more miles for half this easy.

Also, leather was NOT an option in 1997, neither was a sunroof (both standard).

My truck was most of what this is when I bought it for half this price. Crackity Crack pipe.

You should keep you payroll money in a seperate account, (Payable in general) That way you always know what you’re not working with.
