Awesome FJ60!! So sad to sell this truck as I have put a lot of love into it. I am traveling a lot these days and can't properly look after it anymore. I need to pass the torch ... the truck is awesome as is but with a bit more love it will be truly amazing.
The good:
- Runs great. Super zippy for a 2F.
- Original Carb Rebuilt in May 2016 by Mark Algazy (of marks off road). See cold start video below ...
- Transmission rebuilt in Feb 2015, new rear main seal
- Brand new gas tank installed by Toyota in April 2016 (per 1991 recall)
- New OEM fuel pump March 2016
- New OEM water pump, fan clutch, fan installed February 2017
- Been in California its whole life- hence the rust free undercarriage.
- Mostly rust free - see below
- Saginaw power steering pump w custom bracket ... this is a good thing as allows for cheap and easy replacement of ps pump if needed.
- Comes with 4 extra wheels in great shape (just need elbow grease)... wheels on the truck were poorly painted black by previous owner.
- Lots of extras (wheels, marlin crawler seal kit, a/c dryer, tools, replacement light for broken flasher at rear passenger side - needs replacement bolt though).
- Recently replaced distributor cap, rotor, wires, plugs.
- Alpine head unit installed plus 2x alpine speakers in front. Truck has a 5 channel amp installed under front seat, can power 2 more speakers plus sub.
- Tuffy Console w drink holders - provides great security and arm support.
- All new specter off road carpeting
- All new vinyl seat covering with new foam on front and passenger seats. Not the 100% OG look, but still very tasteful and way more durable than original cloth.
- Butyl rubber insulation everywhere plus foam layer... nice and quiet inside (for an old cruiser)
The bad:
- Desmogged. Makes it run great, but will be difficult to pass CA smog. Current smog is good until Sept 2017. Best to register the car where smog isn't required. Some have passed smog with
- Some rust above roof rails and upper corners of windshield (Rust Eliminator applied, bondoed and touch up painted... got a quote for $1200 for proper fix with welding and paint)
- Heater is currently bypassed. One mechanic claimed it was leaking but I think it was the rear heater lines. Meaning restoring front heat should be easy. I had the heater core hooked up and never noticed any leaking inside the cab, where it would have gone.
- Factory A/C installed but not working. New evaporator was installed, which I believe was the cause of the leak causing the a/c not to function. Needs to be tested. I'm including a new a/c dryer with the truck.
- Missing one interior panel (left rear cargo).
- Missing some glove box hardware.
- One light bulb blown on dash (temp gauge, etc)
- Slow Oil leak from side engine cover. Not a difficult fix.
- Could use a new set of tires.
- Needs washer fluid res and pump.
- Headlight cleaners work, but res is cracked.
- Overflow reservoir cracked, but works fine.
- Missing some chrome and trim... see pics. I kind of like the roof chrome off look, and it is better for rust prevention...
- Some door panels are kind of dirty (see pics)... haven't tried the serious cleaning products.
I am being as thorough as possible here as I want no surprises for the buyer!! All of the above can be fixed over time... still a great truck as is!
