To clarify so there is no confusion, the Land Cruiser is Located in Miami (South Florida) in the United States.
It has a clean and clear FLORIDA vehicle title.
It was imported into the United States a number of years ago.
When I wrote that transport is free "to the Port of Miami", that would be relevant only if you want to transport it OUT of the United States.

Some additional upgrade and replacements that have been done:
-New pedal rubber pads
-New LED headlamps
-New LED reverse lamp
-New rear bumperettes
-New stainless steel hood hold-down latches
-New stainless steel windshield hold-down latches
-New key fobs (theme of the gear shift and 4wd-selector knobs)
-New window cranks
-New taillamp lenses
-New rear seat hold-up straps
-New grease fitting caps
-New washer spray nozzle
-New spare wheel cover
-New aluminum high capacity, high coolant flow, twin-pass or 3-row heavy duty radiator, with TIG welds only
If I recall correctly the radiator was 0-0. My plans included also upgrading the exhaust system to completely stainless steel and retrofitting power steering but I didn't get to those things and they aren't essential of course anyway. I am mentioning to give a sense of how I was intending to continue spending significantly on upgrades. Note for disclosure: Windows and window regulators and cranks are all working fine, but the hand cranks wiggle themselves off... I meant to address that but just didn't find the time. Also, there are 2 functional glow plug engagement methodolgies, which work: 1) factory method -- turn top of ignition key toward driver, 2) additional momentary contact switch installed. Both methods seen in provided videos. Grease fittings all greased and capped. Motor oil recently changed.
All of these things can be seen in newly added Google Photos link below. Also seen in the new Google Photos album is the engine number stamped so you can see it is original and also an example of an old registration from Costa Rica, undercarriage photos, engine starting videos, engine running vides, proper engine shut-off with factory method of pulling knob, exhaust (tail pipe) while running video showing no smoke, etc.

Addressing eBay users' requests and questions, I have a added undercarriage pictures. Also, some have asked whether there is a warranty. This Land Cruiser is 42 years old, and therefore there is no warranty either expressed or implied and it is sold As Is, Where Is, as one would expect for a 42+ year old vehicle.
