Soooo... I'm interested in this one, but 3 puppies and MSD have me spooked. Is there something obvious that should make me shy away? Horrific rust? Something else? I trust the opinions of the board (I'm gullible that way) so what should I be careful of here? TIA

I haven't seen the rig personally. it's a fair price looking at the pics. It's not anything special for me.
I'd ask for a few more pics, front floorboards, rear body mounts, rear end shot.
55 frames generally hold up very well.
front fenders is a common issue, the brace behind the fender holds road grime and water and rust from the inside out.

Paul - Thank you for your ideas and the prompt reply. The MT FJ55 was sold yesterday afternoon (to someone else).
