If I didn’t know better, I would think somewhere in the world there is a barn where low-mileage, 1970s era Land Cruisers are multiplying like rabbits. Curiously enough, with each additional “for sale” posting they keep getting more expensive. The laws of supply and demand are vexed by the Toyota Land Cruiser.
What we have here is nonetheless a very special find. With only 68,901 miles and in seemingly pristine condition, this Land Cruiser, like so many as of late, will not last long before being swooped up by some doe-eyed Cruiser swooner. It’ll cost him though––twenty big ones. That may seem like a lot of cheese, and in truth it really is for a Carter era Toyota, but it has seen a lot of improvements, preservations, and necessary repairs. I’d love to own it myself, or at least find out where this barn is churning out so many Land Cruisers.
Below is a listing of rare and great cruiser for sale. I have owned the ‘Cruiser for a little over 16 years. It had about 56 or 58,000 miles on it when I got it. Since I’ve had it I’ve done the following.v
