I wasn’t looking to sell (and not sure I am still!) but my new (to me) FJ62 has been taking all my time and money and my first love has been being ignored and I can’t help but think there’s someone out there who would appreciate and but her to better use than I am these days. Truck is currently stored in far northeastern PA while I have the to and doors here in southeastern PA

I bought this truck 12 or so years ago. It’s rarely driven, only in the summer, and I have less than 2K miles on it over the past 10 years. I have the top and original doors but they haven’t been on in years either. This is what I have had done since I purchased it:

—rebuilt 1975 2F engine with EFI and 4 speed transmission (these were procured by Schmuckster and was rebuilt by Romas as part of his build here: Build - Tucker and Roma's 75 FJ40 Restore - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/tucker-and-romas-75-fj40-restore.729307/page-5)
—4Plus family roll cage, roof rack and rear tire/cooler carrier
—disc brake conversion
—power steering (from mini truck)
—Dakota Digital gauge cluster
—Tuffy center console with custom marine stereo
—new Pro-car front seats
—new rear jump seats
—(more was done by Gary (Shmuckster) when the engine/transmission etc were swapped but I don’t have a list unfortunately)

Truck is currently in storage about 2.5 hours away so I’m attaching photos I have (including one next to an Icon that always cracks me up) but will update when I can get some more. Truck runs great and starts clean without issue (the EFI is huge). Is a great weekend around town truck or if anyone has a beach house it’s a no-brainer!

Asking $15,000 (revised to move) obo (I reduced the price based on some rust in the cross member behind the drive’s seat. I think the new price is fair based on the overall condition of the vehicle. I’ll be posting undercarriage photos below.)

Save yourself some hassle post under carriage pics and any potential rust if any. Looks like a great rig from what you have shared. Great upgrades.

Thanks, it’s 2.5 hours from me at the moment and I just wanted to get it out there for the time being. There’s some rust in the usual body spots (rear sill for instance0 but frame/undercarriage are in solid shape. I’ll get more photos up when I get a chance soon.
 
I haven't seen the truck for quite some time but must say it ran quite well when Mike picked it up after I had done all the work. The engine and transmission came from the FJ40 that Roma built up, described in his great thread, then unfortunately was damaged in a freeway accident. I drove down to Alabama to pick everything up.
While I had the truck we added rear disc brakes using Chevy calipers and all the adapter parts from Poser I believe it has an FJ80 master and there is an adjustable proportioning valve. I installed the mini truck power steering box and pump, the box and mounting bracket came from JT Outfitters. The wheels and tires were purchased new from Toyota and the tires were brand new at the time. I believe I installed a Dakota Digital instrument cluster so I am certain the fuel level gauge and speedometer are accurate.
Lotsa good stuff on this truck.
 
I found a nice door for you. JKDUR728 on Mud has one. He sent me pictures. I've dealt with him in the past he is fair and might even have the window run piece you need. I'll try to transfer my messages with him to you but offhand don't know how. Stay tuned in the meantime look him up on mud.
