Well, maybe I shouldn't drink whiskey and surf eBay but I did. Last night I had the winning bid for a 1983 FJ60 based in Spokane, WA. I had been eyeballing it since the listing went up and got lucky with a last second bid. Spoke to current owner multiple times over the course of the auction before final bid.
Here is what I know.
2nd owner vehicle
Rebuilt motor 20k miles ago. < reciept included
Tons of receipts since new < big reason to bid
Emissions is intact< good thing as Colorado where I live can be a pain to pass smog.
Repainted 8 years ago and looks good with no obivious paint bubbles. Being a 40 owner I know rust never sleeps.
Newish tires
Vehicle looks solid underneath
Interior is super clean
Rear portion of headliner is torn but fixable and or I ve seen some threads on DIY replacement
I fly to Spokane today and start my journey to bring her home to Golden, CO. Wish me luck!
