Vehicle Model

1. 60 Series

Mileage

Hi Guys. I'm gauging interest in my '88 FJ62. She was purchased new in Albuquerque, NM, and stayed there until 2019 when I brought her to Atlanta. I've got the original window sticker and service history from 2001 to present. @cruisermatt did the H-55F swap, t-case & lift, along with various other items & I'm extremely happy with his work. No rust. The PO had a little oopsie, resulting in an aftermarket front left fender & repaint. I'm really interested to hear everyone's (well, probably most everyone's) thoughts. What do you think of the condition? What do you think I should ask for it?

Looks great. You posted in the For Sale section. Name your price. GLWS

very clean truck. I always liked that color! GLWS

Looks like a beauty - congrats. But as @Laughingjackal said, this is the Classifieds and posting a price is required - not just for gauging interest. GLWS! I have one the same color. Not quite as nice as yours but it's a great look.

As much as it pains me to say it.... BAT is the way to go for something this nice. I would say this is in excellent condition based on the little info we have here. Good look... I'm just looking for a beater patina truck.... but this is resto trailer queen material with just a little work. Very nice truck.

Price?

 

[Ocho77]

Can someone point to a link where posting a price is required? Last I looked it was suggested, but not required. That was awhile ago and now I can’t find the rules.

Price?

I'm asking 38k for it. Thank you to @Laughingjackal and @thenative1 for suggesting I include a price, which I added to the title last night. Is there somewhere else it should go?

 

[Devils Paw 80]

Very nice. Leave it here for awhile and then if it doesn't sell, take it to BAT.

 

[99crusher]

I think that’s the move, @Devils Paw 80.

Might take a second but don't put it on that Greed Auction>

 

[jpsfj60]

Hi John,

I’m happy to give you the compression numbers next week, when I return home from vacation. The upkeep has been fastidious and extremely well documented. @cruisermatt - I’m not sure if you ran compression tests, but I’m sure any thoughts you have on the truck would be valuable here.

This 62 is very nice and accurately represented.

It should be noted the H55f, lift, and service work was about $15k at my shop only a few months ago. Basically, in today’s market it would be difficult to replicate something like this for the price.

As for compression I don’t think we ever took numbers, because there was zero reason to. It always fired up perfectly and had good power.

Clint also didn’t mention it has 10% OD high range gears in the T-case so it cruises really well at 75-80. It also makes the low H55f 1st/2nd gears way more usable.

Maybe some pictures of the rebuilt T-case?

That greed auction ? Why so he gets the most money? Most ignorant comment iv ever seen. Yes leave it here so he gets less money. Great idea

The FJ62 3FE and 5 speed is a great set up, I think the ultimate 60 series combo!

This looks like a nice truck that was improved correctly, good luck with sale and congratulations to the next owner, it would be difficult not to enjoy!
