Hello Mudders - My uncle is in Portland with an 88-89 FJ62 and engine is capoot (seized, no oil i believe). No leaks but oil pump wasn't registering or pumping through to engine and his daughter wasnt aware. ANYWAYS, point of this thread is what to do next.
Mileage: 199k
I don't want him to donate the cruiser and I may want to pick it up but several questions:
1) Do any of you know what it would cost to replace to a straight 6 or convert to 350?
2) Any mechanic recommendations in town willing to do this?
3) Sell it as is to one of you fine members with a trailer and come give it a new life?
Im in Ausitn TX and own an FJ60. I would like this ride but it depends on cost to get it cross country drivable. Im told the rig is in really good condition and would hate to pass up on owning another rig but i aslo know the time and patience these cruisers need to keep them driving (owned the 60 for 15+ yrs)
Any feedback, advice, etc is greatly appreciated as always
