Bump for you OP. The third or fourth one sound like your best bet as the whole point of a Land Cruiser is the Toyota reliability tier engine (eliminating #1). I will say that if the first one had a decent V8 it might be a good buy. Avoid the second one, don't buy from people who aren't willing to spend some time or money to fix their problems as they probably cut corners elsewhere too. Good Luck OP, and get on that rust repair ASAP.

let the weeb fall into the money pit
they have to learn
>>15209523
if he's under 6'2" how do you expect him to learn?
>>15209483
thanks and as for the V8... heres a pic of it
Last two seem fine. I'd like an FJ, but too many projects and can't really afford to daily a sub 20mpg car.
>>15209496
? you don't have to be a weeb to like the 60.

>reliability meme
god i love idiots
>>15209593
Don't go anywhere near that car
>>15209458
I'd go with 3 personally and mod from there but if you don't mind the high mileage, 4 is probably a better deal.
>>15209458
you better have a ton of money to feed it.
its getting difficult to get parts for 60's.
go with an 80 or 100.
>>15209605
Haha youre dumb
Check ih8mud for guides on what to look for when buying a 60/62.
>>15209930
its been difficult to get parts for those for over a decade now
and there is no real significant reliability toyota has.
the "reliability" not good enough to go and specifically looking for a toyota model.
its ironic how people who go for toyota don't actually know what they are doing and need that safezone feeling of brand name reliability which fits into their conjured, unrealistic image of vehicle ownership
hurrrrr "i dont want to pay $1500 for repairs"
