89 FJ62 FS in Yosemite, CA - No affiliation

I checked out this cruiser via email only and it sounds like a decent ride. I've decided not to get it, but I thought I'd pass it along. The owner is a Park Ranger who doesn't drive it much. If you are interested contact him with the info here or go to the Autotrader ad linked below.

Here is a link to the ad.

Here is a link to the pictures he sent me.

Here is some of the text from the email he sent with more info:

''The engine was rebuilt in 2001. Since then I have out 47k miles on it. Here are some pictures of the wear and tear.''

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]''...the vehicle came from Park City Utah. I bought it there in 98. Before I could register it there I had to replace the pitman arm and some other minor repair. They said I would need to replace the windshield since it was cracked, but the crack hasn't done much moving in the last 9 years.[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]Here is the run down of repairs and or issues:[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]In 99 I replaced the radiator [/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]I had the brakes done in 2000; pads, drums, and rotors [/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]In 2002 I replced the muffler and the pipe back from thre exhaust-a shackle need to replace one that wore away[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]In 03 the egr sensor and the water pump were replaced as well as plugs, wires and cap and the thermostat[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]The tires were replced in 01.[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]The paint on the hood is wearing away in a irregular pattern.[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]The vehicle comes with a pioneer 6 disc changer but the antennae needs to be replaced for the in dash radio. I have bought the parts from spector, but never installed them. I would just replace the radio because it catches cassettes intermittently.[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]One of the electric rear window control's connections have worn down. So there is one less in the rear. I still have the box, it may need a widget or two to make it work again.[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]The interior is in good condition. The center console wiggels a bit and has since I bought it[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]I think the engine is tired, but it still runs realiably. [/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]I replaced the battery this summer. I have not driven it much in the last three years and the battery couldn't hold it together. [/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]I am a park ranger and have lived in remote areas. The mileage is from long runs to town and seasonal journeys from work to work.[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]The 4wd has worked great and without fail.[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]There is a little rust on the liftgate. I have a replacement lift gate from a friend's 60 that is white. I haven't painted or replaced it and you are welcome to it if you like.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,new york,times,serif]Oh and it did pass smog six years ago in San Mateo. Since then I have lived in counties that don't require a smog inspection.''
