It's very nice, but there is something odd about this one... Perhaps it's the softtop. Has the older, cool steering wheel and appears to be in good condition.

"In overall good shape with low mileage, leaking a little brake fluid and needs new blinker switch".... Suggests to me that someone put more priority on a pretty paint job, than they did on mechanical soundness.
Eh... Who needs brakes, anyway...?
Gotta love those two-piece, recessed handle "69 Patrol" doors ...

Me... but I find that a single pump fixes them enough

It ended at eBay.
It bothers me a lot comments like this one on BAT:
More a copy of the Land Rover than the FJ 40, of course with more power and a bigger engine than the 88 inch Land Rover... 
And it's coming from a previous Patrol owner.
