SOLDTRADE/FEELER:
I’ve had a 55, a 60, an 80 and now I am looking to potentially make a move. Some of you are probably familiar with my current rig, Norman (94 fzj80) or my previous rig, Ingrid (83 fj60) and are therefore familiar with how I build up my cruisers. So you know that my mods are purpose-driven and well thought-out.
Please feel free to re-direct to my build thread via the vehicle description in my sig. (Some pics below as well)
I WILL NOT DELIVER AND SHIPPING IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE BUYER. KEEP IN MIND THAT I AM IN DURANGO, COLORADO AND SHIPPERS CHARGE A BIT MORE SINCE I AM OFF THE BEATEN PATH OF NORMAL EAST/WEST CORRIDORS. WHEN GETTING QUOTES FOR SHIPPING MENTION THIS FACT!, I RECOMMEND ERIC AT FIRST CALL AUTO HAUL. PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY AND EXAMINE MY BUILD THREAD BEFORE MAKING AN OFFER. I WANT THE BUYER TO KNOW WHAT HE OR SHE IS BUYING AS THIS IS AN AS-IS SALE WITH "NO-BACK-SEES" THAT SAID, I WILL OBVIOUSLY ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS I CAN AND TAKE ANY PICTURES YOU MAY NEED.

(Just enough Comms for CruiseMoab)

I have most of the PO’s paperwork and all of mine.
Full Disclosure Cons/Problems from Front to Back
Front clip was less-than-exactingly repaired…Front radiator support should have been replaced after non-frame effecting accident that totaled it out. Therefore, the front fenders hang a little bit off, the inners are banged back into general compliance (light deformation, not giant) The driverside headlight assembly has intact glass but rigged mounting points (see build thread) and the passengerside headlight assembly has intact mounting points but a hole in the front glass contaminating the inside with condensation and dust. I have covered the hole with 4 or 5 layers of clear packing tape to stop further contamination but that red Moab dust gets in there somehow. The hood’s clear is coming off on the edges to an extensive degree and the hood has some hail damage. (replacement hood after accident). Basically the front clip (body) shows okay but has some issues. It’s what’s known as a 15 footer.
The vehicle's Air Conditioning stopped cooling once in Moab, during CruiseMoab 2011, after 5 hours of Slow-going and crawling on Hell’s Revenge and Fins & Things in 90º+ weather (AC on the whole time). This happens when the engine temp gets too high so I imagine a clutchfan fluid replacement and/or waterpump may be needed in the distant future. The gauge has never left the center but if the AC kicked off then it got over usual operating temp. (210º is the kick off?)
Windshield is cracked but not bad and has never gotten bigger during my ownership (Didn’t trust anyone local to seal it right so never did it)
Front Seats need new foam, outer bolster flattened on both Leather okay no rips.
CD player doesn’t work, I use cassette adapter and Ipod/Ipad or stream Pandora through my Crackberry
Small Bleach stain on lower carpet of driver second row door panel
Windows:
Driverside Front Window Motor replaced and powerful but tracks are slightly off so it doesn’t go up super smooth and it pops at the top instead of simply stopping
Passengerside Front Window is SLOW, tracks are good, will go in-op (will need hand assistance) if cold enough
Rear windows operate slightly faster than Passengerside Front but can also be rendered almost in-op by cold.
Some carpet stains in rear cargo.
Rear Seat Belt assemblies (3rd Row) removed (I have them)
Hood and Hatch supports become in-op due to cold
Aforementioned Code 71 EGR – needs deleting or repair. O2’s have been checked and are fine.
Rear Driverside Reverse Light (LED) is intermittent – connection suspected.
Small oil leak at Oil Pump Cover Gasket. Never hits the ground.
Small Leak at rear main or upper pan gasket. Never hits the ground.
Very small amount of rust on lower inner door skin of Driver side 1 and 2
Cosmetic damage to Land Cruiser trim piece on center of rear hatch.
Little bit of slop in the driveshafts that I attribute to the slop of an autolocker. The gears looked great when I put in the locker…and the pinion preload was still good.
Okay, that’s about all I can think of. May have forgotten something but I don’t think so. Please refer to my build thread for pictures and feel free to ask me for additional photos if needed.

sits further back due to the correction of the LANDTANK HD Lower Control Arms
