80 Price Point

[mph]

Any idea what a stock 80 with 100k miles should cost? I have no idea...I have seen the 100s dropping in price...Should I consider it? Or, should I spend a little more and grab a 100 series.

Thanks much, Mike

PS Anyone out there live in Texas that might be interested in checking out one for me? I am in Utah...

What year/condition. I bought my 97 40th & lockers with 140k on it two years ago for close to $10k. I saw another one almost identical a few months ago for $8500.

It is a 97...40th anniversary special...

If the rest of the rig reflects the mileage and the service records are current, I'd go for it.

I'd take an 80 over a 100 any day, though.

How much is the asking price? Lockers?

$10k is the asking price...Lockers included...

If it helps I picked up a '97 collectors edition with lockers, 117k 3 months ago for $8100.

Only real issue was a rear corner ding - Quick trip to the body shop fixed that.

Just got back from putting about 1000 miles on it touring Oregon - damn comfortable rig.

Having just shopped for one and bought a 97' 40th as well, that is a good price especially if the head gasket and front axle have been done.

So i paid $10k two years ago with 40k more miles. I'd probably pony $10k for it. It's not like they make them anymore and with 100k miles on it, it is still a spring chicken. The 93 I bought years ago had 200k miles on it and I put another 80k on it with only a few small issues. See if he'll take $4500 off and give him a clunker in trade:sombrero:

Where in tx is it. I'm in DFW if that helps.

Having just bought an 80, I'd say don't ignore one just because it needs the birfs (or HG for that matter) done. I actually decided to go the opposite route. I looked for one that needed either the HG or the birfs to be done. I just picked up a really nicely loaded up 95 (lockers, 35" MTR's, OME J's, HID light/wire harness upgrade, skid plates, Hanna sliders, ARB bumper, Warn M12000, etc) with 155,000 for $6,500 because it needed the birfs done (and the seats are shot, but what are you gonna do). I spent $1,100 on the Brifs but still came out WAY ahead on price. Low price coupled with the fact that I know it will be a long time before the front axle needs any attention made it a great buy in for me. You could pay more for one that doesn't need the birfs done now, but might in a year.

Just my thoughts

I have a 97, with 147,000, collectors edition, with lockers, HG was replace about 5k ago, 3rd row seats, one little rust spot above windshield (paint starting bubble), I am looking to sell. I am in suburb of Chicago, but was a Colorado car up until last year and I did not drive last winter.
If anyone is interested, please let me know

I paid $4K for my 96 with lockers, higher miles around 180k but runs better than the wife's almost new lexus RX350 and the only thing in bad shape is the front seats. I don't want to sound crazy but an 80 in almost any condition is a good buy especially if you can do a lot of the work yourself. She still wants a newer 100 series Landcruiser though.
