I took my ’85 fj60 to a tire/brake shop today to have a flat checked to see if it could be repaired. I handed them my keys for them to drive it around never guessing they’d force my ‘86 Camry key that was on the same ring into the ignition, turn it with pliers and burn out my starter. When they...

An exceptionally late follow-on thanks to a google search. Did you end up finding anywhere in Boise to have the work done? I'm out in Idaho Falls and mine is getting some nasty looking long rusty streaks on the doors that I don't know how to fix. I don't know if I should keep trying various...

Thanks. I'm just having buyers anxiety.

Thanks everyone for the instant feedback!!!!

Heading over to see it now, I'll try to post some additional pictures!

Thanks everyone! I appreciate all of the feedback and support! And am happy to hear that assuming nothing horrible is hiding that its a decent cruiser for the price. I'm definitely interested in learning how to work on it myself though at this point I've done almost none of the maintenance on...
