Not yet, I have some pricing. My plan is to ship this FJ in January. If you can help I'd appreciate it. Let me know. Thanks

Thank you. Can you send me the freight company name or website? I see many RoRo on google. Thank you

T Thank you Sir! Its a nice rig with great AC and body so I'd like to get it back home with me.

V Very nice rig you have, but I like my air conditioner :)

Not really sure where to post this, but I need some direction on getting my 1982 FJ40 from the Surabaya Indonesia port to the LA port in California. Wondering what is the easiest way to get this done? Ive owned this FJ for over 5 years and have all the legal documents, also the FJ is registered...

Thank you Sir

Vehicles 30 years or older do not require emissions in America. I'm just trying to find a reasonable ocean freight company.

The switch itself, key switch in the column? No doubt its very old and worn by looking at the key, my fuel cap key is similar and will fit with a little jiggle, also start the cruiser. My mechanic once used this key by mistake bc of its shape. Let me know, you are talking about the ignition...

We do a lot of island hopping on the ferrys here around Indonesia and Malay. This cruiser is 100% mechanically sound, everything was dissasembled and repaired, adjusted or replaced in late 2017. I have a book full of receipts for the work that was completed, took the custom shop over 8 months to...

I have the schematics, they show a capacitor in the ignition system but capacitors normally discharge fairly quickly. When I noticed 12 volts at the coil and distributor with all the power off (ignition switch and power shut-off switch direct from the battery), I used a small screwdriver to open...

Its dark already, but tomorrow I will plan to drop the kill switch from the dash and check it out. L will post what I find.....Just strange that the only hot wires are the ones that will make for an easy start, all else is powered down as they should be. This cruiser starts and shuts off...

No, the battery never runs down, probably because I start it every few days and drive it once every 3 or 4 days. Even if the voltage is under 12, I wouldn't really know it (unless the battery drops below 10 volts) because its got a new Stecker high torque starter that spins it over like crazy...

No, the battery is new. All the wiring was replaced a few years ago, very nice and neat. I'm a Texas man but live on the islands of Java, so yes its a SE Asia rig. These cruisers were equipped with points from the factory in the 80's, unlike America. Everything goes through a kill switch, just...

Maybe the mechanic who installed the wiring planned to steal this rig at some point and made it easy 😂😂😂😏
