1. 1985 FJ60
2. Jenny Masters
3. have to work on this:hmm:
4. welllll, see mods👇
5. when I bought it a year ago the odometer said 167,000 miles though it hadn't been working in years. I replaced the speedometer cable so I could see how fast I was going....drove several thousand miles, but the latest mod was replacing the gauge cluster from a parts LC I purchased, because the tripometer wasn't functioning on mine and that says 221,000. I needed the tripometer because the fuel gauge also doesn't work, just making the guessing game of how much gas i have a little easier. :clap: I patched up a few holes inside. replaced the starter, alternator, and headlight washer tank and motor (from parts LC. I got the main dome light working, as well. Had a roof rack built. I had a platform built for sleeping, with some storage underneath (this is a work in progress). added an ammo can to the roof rack to serve as my toolbox. The latest mod is the light-bar...I got super lucky that the wiring and button for turning on and off inside the cab was preexisting...literally just needed to reroute and connect. Oh, and some stickers....they count as mods right?;)
6. I've been using it as my daily driver..because well..it's just too cool! We did use it for a couple weekend camping trips last fall mostly just to test out how the platform would work. I recently bought a reliable car so I can start working on the suspension and building and replacing the side panels in the back to try to keep the dust from coming in.

welcome @dustycruiser, seems like you've got a fairly solid start happening there. n if you ever feel overwhelmed by the work you have to do on it, may i recommend some light reading, checkout @NeverGiveUpYota 's build thread here in the 60 section. its inspirational.
oh yeah, regarding stickers, the cooler the sticker, the higher the hp gain. they usually start at 5hp:hillbilly:
