    yeah $2k, guy was deperate for a quick sale, his price too. I've owned several landcruisers, 40 and 60 series, first Taco, really love the truck. Already ordered a new exhaust manifold from American Toyota (cracked), replaced the radiator, everything else good 177,xxx miles, no rust at all. Does have a 3" bodylift (yeah I know) and about a 2 1/2 suspension lift, rolling on 35's.

    My son's latest mod.....
