Very nice work to date! I am hoping that I can get the FJ62 that I am waiting on paperwork completion.

UPDATE on purchase... will not be able to transfer ownership tomorrow Wednesday. Found out that the truck has a donor engine, and is not registered. The gentleman found all of the paperwork, and will commence the registration process tomorrow, as the engine has to come for a "decommissioned"...

Frame looks good. I managed to get under the truck for a bit, and it did look nice.

Thank you all for your input. Yes, it is not a perfect truck, but I got around to lifting carpets and such, but obviously not able to do a "50 point certification inspection." I am pretty sure it has bondo in some places, but being in the south of Puerto Rico, a very arid area, I am hoping it...

Thanks, Cruiser. Let's see what I can see and find today...:)

Hello Guys! New to the forum, although I have surfed it every now and then... In a nutshell, I've been offered a 1998 FJ62, and I will check it out tomorrow. The seller says that the unit has 208,000 miles, and according to the single pic (link attached), it has original wheels, and looks...
