How rare are the ambulance doors on the 80?


I saw Brian Wilson's new BJ70 and it has the best rear bumper with a rear tire carrier on it I've seen where it's integrated into the door. Anywho...
Amby doors not available on US Spec 80s. But VERY common on Non-US 80 Series...all over the world. Most of the 80s I have seen in Japan and Middle East were all ambulance doors.

@rover67 pay attention to this one... https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1982-toyota-land-cruiser-fj40-32/

Interesting it's got no center console, so consequently no center console ashtray. And he did the split lower doors in back with a hatch, and aftermarket AC... probably a few other holes that could be poked in this one. So not a legit 82 but will be interesting to see if that matters to the market today.

Yeah it says it's from Venezuela... did they get split doors in back? If so I apologize for my cultural bias and geocentricism here... I though it would be ambulance doors worldwide.

Yep Central/South American rig. Lift gate is one of the several giveaways...

The AC is identical to the AC in the white 1980 FJ45 sitting in the Stevinson showroom right now. That FJ45 was originally from South Africa.

Over $60k each?
I’m guessing they were “equipped” with all the gear plus lockers and regearing? What about miles?

Each! It's nuts.

The top dollar ones are the stock ones with low miles.

This one is a 2002, which as we know isn't a year that demands any particular premium but is solid all around:


Here is a 2006 which is more desirable, but I expected to see the LX "discount":


There are bound to be more at this rate.

Those miles are insane! I have an all stock 99 LX, no rear locker. But 210k miles.
I guess I’ll be keeping it.

I just don't get why people would pay $60k for those trucks, even with the low miles. A built truck, sure, but stock? I don't get it.

I paid just a bit more than that for my 200, and it was about 2.5 years old, with 40k miles. For $60k, I'd much rather have a newer 200, with the bigger V8, 8-speed transmission, and all the creature comforts.
