Not affiliated. Comments? Hard to tell how rusty this one once was, but the recent body work doesn't look to be the best. http://kenai.craigslist.org/cto/4917914553.html

Lot of bang for the buck buildwise, even with the potential need for more rust-related work. Hard to find a Pig for any price that hasn't/isn't/won't need some sort of body work. Deal breaker for most will be the distance.
They shaved the rear wheel lips?
Front seatbelts look like stock location, rear 3-point belts on the C pillar looks interesting...
The 2nd picture makes the toe-in look really weird.
Nice Piggy!

Definitely a nice build for the price. Body will need more work as time goes by, but looks as if it would be able to be kept nice looking for a long time (with a little attention). I'll stick with my 56, and deal with my own rust issues....
So far away ...ugh,just about everything's been done to it already ...killing me
What is an FJ-56?
Barn doors outback, no tailgate and roll up window ...
What about Sherman?

According to Wolfarth, it's a 1975+ vehicle with the 2f replacing the F, and in Japan only. Similar vehicles sold overseas were/are still 55s.
I sent the owner a message ...I think he might get a better offer ..but I threw my hat in the ring anyway...maybe I will luck out

"Sherman"-did you ask him what the alternator "issue" was that no one can figure out? Like, does it charge the battery or not?
I didn't ...seems like an alternator would be easy fix though-

Except that if you're picking up the truck to drive it home, it would be nice to know the full story. Part of the story is that no shop in Jackson, or wherever it is located, can figure out the problem. Another part of the story is that alternator was relocated when the OP was doing some mods.
I read he put a gm one wire on it when he put in the ac...I figure it's either the internally regulated alt. or wiring issue ...was gonna trailer back if it happened ...
