1984 FJ60 stock, in MT now $2800/strong offer

This is a feeler...want to sell this but I paid $2000 for it...so the bottom line is very close to this number...

I have too many pieces of iron in the fire. I now own 4 vehicles and need to downsize.

I got this last summer with the intention of building it up. It was mainly a hunting rig for the previous owner, and as such, was not driven alot real regularly. It has around $9000 or so in documented auto shop reciepts from the last 5 or so years...that being said it still needs a few things.
Just under 170,000 miles on the chassis, less on JDM engine. I have driven this FJ60 less than 2000 miles in the last year.

for a regular daily driver it needs:
-rebuilt (correctly) carb, or new Aisin, or weber
-desmog
-oil leaks addressed. Probably the oil pan, side cover, dunno possibly rear main.
-P/S pump leaks some fluid

It is a 4 speed, shifts great, 4WD/transfer all works great. All guages work. Has a JDM replacement engine from a few years ago, but it probably needs some minor tune ups such as a few gaskets, plugs/cap/rotor/wires, and probably a valve adjustment.

I took the wheels and tires for my '95 Tacoma, so it would need rims with the proper backspacing. As it sits on the '95 roller rims, I DO NOT think that they clear the brakes, so test drives would have to be done with some other wheels. Paint is original, and clear coat is peeling in spots, also some fading and very minimal surface rust starting to appear on the top of the roof.

Has a tear in the driver's side seat, and rusting of the drivers rear quarter panel at the bottom next to the exhaust. Frame rust and rust underneath seems to be surface rust an minimal. Not a 10 (out of 10), but also not a 5. Probably the rust (10 being no rust), is likely a 6 or 7 with the rear quarter factored in compared to other FJ60's I have seen in this price range.

Has Chilton manual, AND the 2F FSM, chassis FSM, electral supplemental FSM...every manual you would need for a ground-up, frame off restore.

Would consider cash + partial trades for a 14' john boat, guns (7mm mag, 30-06, .357 or .44/.45 revolver), possibly other Toyota stuff but like I said I am trying to do some downsizing.:D

This is the closest to Bozeman in the $2000 range, however there are a few with 260,000 miles for sale in the Gallatin Valley in the $4000-$6000 range...learning about 'Cruisers is at least as important as the other stuff they teach in college!:cool:

dgreenbluet- keep this one in mind, there has not been any significantly interested buyers yet for some unknown reason. It will probably still be for sale in another month or two...

Dont worry I got my eye on it.

I'll be in touch end of August

I dont need student loans for school bcuz i have the gi bill so might as well use it to get a sweet ride and pay on it before i graduate, interest free loan!

Somebody buy this!!!!!

I keep seeing many cruisers in my area in the same condition going for $4000-$5000!!!

Read the full ad here and you will get full disclosure of the condition of this vehicle.

As previously stated, it will need a new/rebuilt/new-used carburator to drive more than a 30 mile test drive. If you want to drive it on a highway or interstate, I the owner, would not do that until the carb issue is addressed. It stalls out on inclines which leads me to beleive that it is a needle valve or float problem in the carb.

You can rent a tow rig and trailer from UHAUL for about $200 a day, which would probably be cheaper than a new carb. rent a tow rig and own your own FJ60!!! Or buy a used carb on MUD for $150, and take an hour or two to install it and tune it and then drive the Interstate!!!

Hate to say it but this is gonna be on Ebay after Christmas...
 
Call me tomorrow at 2706707749. Im interested but have some questions. Anytime after 11 am mountain time.
 
mickeyt- I have seen used or rebuilt carburators, both local or on mud classified, for $150-$250 or so. I bet a new Toyota one is not cheap and probably upwards of $500 or something. Plus elbow grease and tuning the choke and carb, an hour or two.

Then a few engine gaskets and elbow grease. Then tune up stuff. I bet it would be a sweet rig if you replaced the few things listed above in the post and put a few hundred into it. All said you could probably have a sweet rig for $3000 with a minimal tune up/upgrade a few parts.

I basically base-lined this rig, lost an engine in my gas-saver, devoted too much $$$ to that project, then started to wheel my Tacoma heavily and would like to replace the suspension under it. i have had the FJ60 in 4WD, and done some mild hill crawls in 4low. It is a really comfortable off-road ride, definately more comfortable than my Tacoma, any of my Hiluxes, or the short wheelbase of my old FJ40.

Shifts smooth, transfer case is in good shape and shifts well, all 4WD works great.
 
I bet if you got the carb issues worked out on this (maybe spend $100-$200) you could sell it for $2500 in a heartbeat. Just a thought.
