Alright new member here. I am lucky enough for my first car to be a 1984 FJ60. My Family bought it new and we have kept it running since. The first time I saw it I wanted it to be my car. So keeping it running we have experienced replacing the radiator and vapor-lock problems, and not so long ago replacing the rear window because some genius shot it. Well let me know what yall think. Just ask any questions and I'll try my best to keep up. Thanks

--Alex

Lemme know what yall think.

i wish my car had carpet. nice rig. she doesnt look rusty at all, although limited experience says that if you dont want rust you may want to de-bling everything.
still youve picked up a beautiful machine there. enjoy.

Looks Nice!

With a rattle can of flat or semi-gloss you can have those windshield wiper arms looking new in 5 minutes. (Then, you can move on to the side vents) (And, eventually, the grill).

Thanks again. Yes I will be sixteen 13 days from now, but my license is in 21 days from now.
I don't plan on wrecking it. Ever.

Hey there boss...welcome to MUD!
That is a BEAUTIFUL rig! Looks hardly driven.
Is it going to be an off roader, or a street queen or both?
Congrats on the rig and the LICENSE!!!
Oh to be 16 again with the world at your feet!!!

Nice rig. Welcome to MUD.

I wish I had my 60 at 16 instead of my POS Mustang.
