For Sale Cheap complete running FJ62 in NE PA SOLD

Location

United States

Got in a running FJ62 that I was going to part out. After driving it home 35 miles without incident I am going to try to sell it intact. Would be a bit of a shame to cut it up. It's an 88 FJ62 with 173K on the clock. All original except for the front bumper. Blue with gray interior, has a different front clip on it that has been primered light gray. It ain't a show car but for the price it's a good deal. 3FE engine starts right up and ran well. Transmission and 4WD seem to work fine (yes it's an automatic). Tires are a matched set of four offbrand 31x10.50 with lots of tread, PO said they have 3K miles on them. Truck was filthy I washed it and cleaned the windows so she looks presentable. All glass looks good, all four power windows go up and down (some slowly as expected). has a stereo in the dash but I didn't try to play it at all and a six CD changer in the console. Dash is unmolested and all gauges work including the trip odometer. Brakes work OK but the pedal is lower than I'd like. Parking brake handle moves but is ineffective. Has a slight exhaust leak. Radiator leaks coolant from a seam on the top but not too bad. I can give a replacement radiator with the truck. Seats are dirty but interior is complete. Rear bumper is straight and original. Has some rust in the quarters but not too bad for PA inspection. Small rust spots on the tailgate and maybe the liftgate. has some other minor ills but nothing serious worth noting. Overall it's a complete running land cruiser for $2650 (now $2400). Can sell it for $2200 (now $1900) without the nice ARB front bumper which would be replaced with a nice stock bumper without the ends. Frame looks good to me. Has the stock Aisin hubs up front. It's a cheap land cruiser that needs TLC. I'd say fix/replace the leaking radiator, check the brakes, look at the exhaust and give it a good tuneup and drive it. Best to email me if interested shmukter@pa.metrocast.net.

can you post some pics of the rust issues?

 

[shmukster]

Rust issues are basically at the bottoms of the rear wheel well openings very common. Some rust on the tailgate bottom but not bad enough to make functionality a question. No rust at all that I can see on the roof. Truck is in northeast PA 35 minutes from Rausch Creek and 30 minutes from exit 104 of Interstate 81, ten minutes fropm exit 131 of I-81. Will sell the ARB if someone is interested and will replace with the stock bumper mentioned in my post. For anyone not close enough to look at the truck in person I'd be willing to do a compression check on it in fact had been planning to do that this week.

I have had several inquiries about the truck. I do not have pictures of the underside. yes there is some rust, pretty hard to find a running complete land cruiser for this price without rust. I have one picture of the tailgate/liftgate area, you can see a spot of rust on the right bottom of the liftgate and in the center bottom of the tailgate. Could it make a drive to Boston? I don't see why not as long as you keep the coolant topped off. No guarantees, no warranty, and I would certainly prefer to sell the truck to someone who could come and see and test drive it. I drove it 35 miles bringing it home and didn't add any water. have had several inquiries about the ARB bumper but no payment yet.

From what I've seen, if you're buying anything from shmukster you're getting a good deal.

If that roof is as good as it looks in the pictures that is a SMOKING deal. Lower body rust isn't super challenging.

 

[shmukster]

Price drop from $2650 to $2400 with bumper or $1900 with stock front bumper. Lots of interest but the truck is still here.

Looks like the 62 is sold and headed to an appreciative new young owner in MD tomorrow. I'm surprised the truck didn't sell last week, for the money it is a heckuva buy.

You have a stock front bumper to get rid of?
