Way overpriced, but title in hand may be worth the trouble to someone.

Well, at least the rims aren't rusty!
From the looks of that rear bumper it must have gotten hit pretty hard on the passenger side. I would be seriously worried about a bent rear frame.
What is the status on the rear frame how bad is it bent ? pics, and where in Washington is this located. you can PM me with the answers. Best Skip

Sorry not mine. I found it while searching the US Craigslist for a LV. Just shared it with the board in case someone in the northwest was looking for a starter project.
I don't have enough info on this FJ45 to say it is way ever priced. Passenger seat is missing and I don't see the base for the driver's seat both which are FJ45 removable top only. Not a deal killer. Other than the headache rack it seems to be there. I do not see anything more than surface rust. If the bottom outside of the bed was eaten up with rust it would be a deal killer. If the frame is bent probably not that bad. The bed looks like it lines up with the cab. Tailgate looks pretty clean. With a 45 in this price range your looking a project to restore. So not having the tired old running F135 is that big of a deal. I see a over all straight body. Has the what looks like a good top. I also see a current owner who kept the vehicle up off the ground. You can see the floor of the bed not a layer of dirt with weeds growing out of it. A fj45 pickup was one of the few things on my bucket list. I picked up mine back in the nineties. If I haven't I would be requesting more pictures and making sure the car hauler was ready for a road trip. I'm from AZ so first it about rust. Second about what 45 only parts are missing. Third is how straight it is. Depending on rust it could score pretty high on the list. Running gear is not a concern but the springs on this one do not seem that flat.
My .02 if this has very little rust it could be a diamond in the rough
