    1990 FJ62 "Barn Find"

    Ozone, did you happen to buy that red FJ62 in Golden?

    Radio din hole ideas

    Sounds like the perfect chance to install an in-dash Magarita Machine! Or maybe a cup holder for those beers : ebay link I'm not sure how well those cup holders would work or fit, but seems logical to me.

    No power 3FE

    Sounds like you have two of the three basics pretty well covered: air and spark. The third is fuel. How are your injectors & fuel pump?

    New (?) Rear Sliding Windows From SOR

    I was just browsing SOR's site, and it looks like they have newly designed rear sliding windows for 40 & 60 series Cruisers. No affiliation, just a heads up for anyone who's looking.

    Build Costs?

    That's a good point, and some good numbers for what I might be able to pay for parts. Your build sounds quite a bit like what I want my Cruiser to be like in the end. This local CL ad has me interested, but it sounds a bit pricey to me: Superior CO LC $7500 Is that a realistic price for a...

    Build Costs?

    Oh, and the items are listed in to-do order over the next five years or so. Is it a huge stretch that a 250,000 mile Cruiser would need an engine refresh/rebuild?

    Build Costs?

    Good points. I'm Cheap (with a capital C), too! PM is baseline/preventative maintenance. Probably including the relay mod for windows/locks, knuckles, seals, plug wires, vacuum lines, brake lines, new radiator if needed, etc.; all the stuff that will make the truck last another 20 years...

    Build Costs?

    I have no problem spending more initially to get a truck with some of these things done. If I could find one for sale in a month or so with most of these things done I will jump on it. The Machinist- I was rounding up to a worst case scenario for a dash cap, all new carpet, new seats or at...

    Build Costs?

    Hi, all. I'm finally moving on getting myself a Land Cruiser. I need to do a few things to my car before I sell it, and then I'm going to be hunting for a 62. The agreement is that I can get whatever "old piece of crap" I want as long as my wife :princess: gets a car built inside of the last...

    Do I really want an FJ62?

    Well, I'm not worried about a cruiser as an investment, all cars are money pits. Anyone else care to chime in on the differences in the uphill capabilities? Keeping the Subaru isn't really an option that we care to explore, since my Kia gets better gas millage and has fewer miles, that's our...

    Do I really want an FJ62?

    Yeah, that's pretty much exactly how I feel. I was going to sell my 60 and get an 80 because I thought it would be enough motor for comfortable highway driving and occasional pulling of 5k but the fzj 80 was still way to slow for me and the only other option with enough power for my taste was...

    Do I really want an FJ62?

    It seems like a lot of people are saying more or less the same thing, that the 62 is cool, but is outdone by the FJZ by a large enough margin to make the FZJ worth while. Or I could just go all out and sell a few organs to get the REALLY cool classic dream: an HJ47 troopy!

    Do I really want an FJ62?

    I'm in Colorado, USA. So, while An HJ61 would be cool as hell, I don't think I can hunt down one locally. Unless you can bring me one for cheap:hhmm:

    Do I really want an FJ62?

    I've used my dad's FZJ80 for camping and skiing, and it does just fine up the hills. Not a speed demon, but it never feels like a complete dog going over to Utah. I don't need to fly past everyone, but it is nice to go over 30 mph. I guess another concern is what Rigger said about "when the...

    Do I really want an FJ62?

    I've been reading the forum for a long time, and I know that a Land Cruiser is in my future, I just can't quite figure out which one I want. There are a lot of good arguments for an FZJ80, but I also really like the 60 series, perhaps because of the memories of camping in my dad's 60. My uses...
