1988 FJ62 Mileage 2/27/2023: 162,078
$45,000
Located in Nashville, TN
Selling my family member. 1988 FJ62. We’ve enjoyed this work horse for nearly 15 years, but my work necessitates a pickup. Since purchasing a pickup in 2021, she’s not really been used. Time for someone else to give her some attention that she deserves.
Her story is well documented on IH8MUD.COM (Biomax's '88 FJ2 Build-Up Thread - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/biomaxs-88-fj2-build-up-thread.239723/ and 40th Birthday Present - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/40th-birthday-present.413612/ ). Here’s a breakdown of her life with us:
Purchased 09/07/2008 from original owner in Northern California. Rare FJ62 with manual locks & winders. Restoration performed from 9/2008-9/2010 by Gary Kardum, Owner of Mudrak Custom Cruisers of Sonoma California.
