FOR SALE: 1974 FJ55 Land Cruiser - Page 3

Sporin · 08-29-08, 02:34 PM

Bump, would consider a trade for an FJ80. If you want to ditch your cushy truck and get into a rough and tumble classic, hit me up via email. Have a great long weekend everyone.

post holiday weekend bump.

Sporin · 09-05-08, 03:16 PM

Friday bump. Doing a tuneup on the V8 this weekend, not that it really needs it but a fresh set of plugs and wires, and fresh gear oil in the diffs never hurts.

Mud price=$4500 obro

Back to considering trades, doesn't need to be a beauty queen but it does need to be on the road and inspectable. 80/62/60/40 or even a built Minitruck. I'm open to offers.

How about a wagon for wagon trade? 1998 Volvo V70? Ok, I know you won't but I have to sell it before I can get anything else.

's orders. She likes cruisers, leaning towards 40's but you never know...

Good luck. It looks like a fun rig.

Sporin · 09-05-08, 03:58 PM

Gotta be another 4x4.

Dave
seriously considering your offer

Sporin · 09-07-08, 08:20 AM

I hope so, I've seriously already named that 80.

green40 · 09-07-08, 08:36 AM

Big swap at the FG?

There would have to be a (never-ever get rid of it clause).

Sporin · 09-07-08, 08:37 AM

I would hope before so I can get those locker's up and functioning.

Hmmm, names like "Last One" "Trading rigs, the final chapter"
"Not Again" ? : )

jsaltlick · 09-07-08, 08:51 AM

How about naming it "Maybe"

Sporin · 09-07-08, 09:34 AM

My wife thinks I'm nuts for putting all this time and effort into the 55 just to sell or trade it but I want something a bit cushier since I wheel so seldom. I guess I'm just a woos... not cut out for the classics.

Sporin · 09-07-08, 11:18 AM

"tuneup" done, new plugs and wires, bunch of vacuum hoses and caps replaced, runs like a champ.

fogblanket · 09-07-08, 06:50 PM

what about my fj62 Dave that is pretty cushy and would make an excellent daily driver....problem is i need another rustic cruiser like I need another women in my house. I think I need to thin my herd and just have one rustic cruiser.
sorry wrong place for musings. i can definately ly see you in an 80 and happy Dave

Sporin · 09-11-08, 02:20 PM

Goes on eBay this Sunday.

FourBy4Toy · 09-15-08, 07:20 PM

I dont see it on Ebay

Sporin · 09-15-08, 07:34 PM

Yeah, I'm being lazy, have a buyer coming this week to look at it so I'm hopeful.

Sporin · 09-22-08, 02:08 PM

Still for sale, make me an offer.

My wife said no FJ! · 09-26-08, 08:56 AM

Looking for a project vehicle?

I have a 91 LC that's been sitting in my yeard for the last couple of years. Custome 6" lift, Sliderds, AR Front bumper.. Rebuilt LT1 and Adapter to mate to the Toy Tranny already there.. the 383 I had in there locked up.
Really just needs to be wired up and should be good.

Bill

Sporin · 09-28-08, 07:55 PM

At this point I've got my heart set on an FZJ80, but thank you for the offer.

Sporin · 10-06-08, 08:02 AM

Still for sale, put some real mileage on it this weekend both on and offroad. About 5 hours of road time without a hitch.

I ran some "stock level" trails as well and it went great. Big traction from the MT's and the low gearing is fantastic in the woods. She climbed up, over and through everythign I threw at her.

All that bumping around and now I need to replace the fuel filter and clean the carb but otherwise it ran great offroad as well.

I also re-bled the brakes last week and now have a very good, progressive pedal.

Make me an offer. I've got FZJ80-Fever.

jsaltlick · 10-08-08, 06:52 AM

Rode behind the pig all weekend. Didn't get stuck once!!

Sporin · 10-08-08, 07:37 AM

Yup, I need to hose it off and adjust a few things but it was great on and offroad this weekend. Make an offer.

jsaltlick · 10-10-08, 03:37 PM

Friday bump for bacon

Sporin · 10-11-08, 11:13 AM

Finally managed to adjust my driver's door 100% correctly, closes flush and tight. the pass. side front door is closer but still a bit off. Latches securely but doesn't sit flush yet. A small thing but something I've been struggling with since I got it.

All washed, cleaned up and vaccumed ready for someone to buy it!

brandonvance · 10-15-08, 02:59 PM
