The truck is officially for sale. It would make a great family 4x4 or serious expedition platform. It's not just your average "bolt a lot of crap on build." A lot of maintenance and restoration work into the truck in the last year.
Back story:
I've owned this truck since April of 2013 at 168,000 miles. I'm the third owner. The first owner kept it from new until 147,500 miles in Sacramento. Then, he gave it to his nephew in Los Angeles who is an actor. He had it for 2 years then sold it to me.
I owned a mint condition Silver 2000 Land Cruiser with 80,000 miles before this one that my insurance company totalled after a small run in with BlueCruiser. I let it go because it was rusty underneath from it's previous life in PA. I swapped all my mods from that truck onto this truck, including almost the entire interior.
The Slee bumper was added after the accident. I ordered all the parts to do the 2007 front end retrofit to repair the silver truck before Geico totalled it. So I installed the 2007 grill, headlights, etc on this white truck instead.
The important details:
Features and mods:
The bad:
Will include all spare parts at asking price including:
*OEM roof rack crossbars included but not shown. I removed them for better MPG.
**Third row seats not pictured but included.
***Hi-Lift, fridge and Scepter cans for demonstrational purposes only and not included unless you really want them.
****Ham radio not included
Pictures or it didn't happen: (More interior photos to come)
Interior Photos: *The back seat hasn't been cleaned yet. Will get the rest of the interior photographed this week.
