I’m sorry, The link is not working, but I take it you meant the 1977 land rover series 3 body on a Toyota land cruiser drive train, it is funny they want $25k for an unfinished project, and state in the add restored Series trucks sell for 6 figures. Only a garage would think this, confusing a series Frankenstein with a defender :roll:

That’s odd link works for me..
But yes you are correct, why they figure it could be worth 6 figures is crazy talk, I mean 25k is crazy. In the shape it’s in now, it’s worth what 7k tops maybe 🤷🏼‍♂️

I went and had a look at this while hunting for speaker covers at the nearby audio shack. The single photo of the outside pretty much sums up all you need to know about this vehicle. It had an FJ40 cluster put where the Series 2 dash is supposed to be and was supported by a piece of plywood.

I sent them an email asking if the price was negotiable and they never got back to me....
