Vehicle is located in Baltimore, MD, runs strong and the body is in great shape. I originally bought the truck in 96 with 5300 miles on it, sold it to Atlantic British in 98 and bought it back from them in 2002. They drove it less than 2000 miles. So I've put the majority of miles on it which are mostly highway commuting miles. I'm offering to sell it because I don't need a vehicle right now and don't want it to be sitting when someone could be enjoying it. Very little off-road action, I took it once and AB may have taken it a few times.

Here's a list of work done/improvements:

09/2007: Brand new Optima Red Battery purchased today.
03/2007: Replaced front hubs, bearings, and stub axles and a CV joint
01/2007: Truck has only been driven 3-4 times since
Same time replaced fluid in differentials, transfer case, transmission, & swivel balls with synthetic.
10/2006: 91.1k Installed set of 4 Hi-Tec Retread Mud terrains, spare is BFG All terrain Also replaced brake fluid with valvoline synthetic and replaced flexible brake lines with clear coated braided stainless
09/2006: Swapped O2 sensors to eliminate intermittent stalling, has not stalled since. Had previously replaced MAF with refurbished unit, and Vehicle speed sensor for same problem
08/2006: Changed oil 20/50, K&N large capacity Oil filter installed, Oil cooler removed (parts included)
09/2005: 85.7k Replaced front brake pads & rear Ball joint
05/2005: New Polk Audio DB 675 marine grade speakers installed
05/2005: Billstein Heavy Duty Shocks installed
01/2005: 83.2k Replaced Clutch master Cylinder
12/2004: 82.5k Replaced vacuum advance unit
03/2004: 80.1k Replaced Rotor & distributor cap
10/2003: 75.5k All belts replaced and new spark plug wires
03/2003: Installed NRP Stainless steel cat-back exhaust
02/2003: 63.1k New clutch slave cylinder
11/2002: 60.1k Installed R380 Transmission, new clutch

All major work was done by Treasured Motor Cars in Owings Mill MD and I have records to verify the above items.

In addition the truck has Rock Sliders, ARB Front Bull Bar, SlickRockFabrication.com Fuel tank Skid, Differential Guards, Diamond plate on the front fenders, TUFFY Center Console, Bimini Top + Full BestTop( two small tears), OME front stabilizer, 2 hella 500 driving lights (not installed) and I replaced the passenger side kick board with some sheet plastic that I think looks pretty good.

Also during 2005/2006 I treated all rust I could find with Ospho.

The only problem I've ever had (besides the noted repairs) was an interrmittent stalling issue which has gone away since swapping the left/right O2 sensors. These are still the original O2s but the problem never appeared again after that. The truck has only been driven a few times since January.


If I don't sell it here I'll put it on Ebay in a few weeks to see what value it brings.

Follow-up Post:

Ok, Ebay is having a promotion for listing vehicles today so I'm going to put it on there but will end the auction if I can strike a deal with one of you guys.

Took the truck on a 150 mile highway trip today and got 18mpg. I'm as surprised as you are but I filled up before and after at the same gas station and the pump shut off at 8.171 gallons

Is your speedo calibrated? Were the miles from a GPS or based on the odometer reading?

18 mpg? Was it all downhill? Just kidding; good luck with the sale.

AT least I'm getting a response. :) I've never had the speedo calibrated and the tires are same size as factory originals. The distance was correct according to google maps but I did not verify with GPS.

ok, no sale on ebay but there were 10 people watching, next time I'll put in a reserve price instead of a minimum bid. Maybe I've provided too much information :)

Sorry to be the bearer of unwanted news but I think you want too much for it. Earlier in the month got 26k for #355 and it had 62k miles, folding rear seat, and hard top, great mechanincs, new suspension and tires, redone interior, etc. Frustrated at the price because of course I thought it was worth much more than that. But seems the soft market is here to stay.

Thanks, I saw your listing. I put on the high price as I reluctantly listed the vehicle for sale. I'm debating the merits of keeping it vs. selling it and since I don't drive it now that I'm living in NYC I'm leaning towards selling but I'm still not 100% convinced.

Anyway, if anyone out there is interested at any price I'd like to hear it. I plan to list it on ebay again in a few weeks with a reserve but no minimum bid.

I'll probably get another one in few years when I live back out in the country. No real use for them in cities, it takes me at least an hour just to get to dirt roads, much less trails.

My advice: if don't need the money and want to sell than pick a time when Ebay is limited to trucks from dealers. If you have a 'buy it now' and reserve at 25k (and start bidding around 20k) you will get bids as your 'buy it now' will be 10k less than what they will charge. Good luck.
