Talked to the former owner this evening, The mileage is actual, He bought it new off the showroom floor at St. Cloud Toyota in St. Cloud Minnesota and owned it all these years, He so aspired to fix it to his former glory but retirement and cost finally made up his mind for him, He had to part with it. He regretted that he could not find the original jack and in explanation of how it managed to get so rusty he exclaimed " Toyota used Crap steel, I always took care of it, but the wife and I loved cruising with the top off, We went everywhere with that thing" at that point his wife chimed in wishing they could have fixed it and how it will be missed. Truly an example of the effectof the love affair with the motor vehicle.I can honestly say I have never managed to own a vehicle for 39 years.
