1984 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 Full Size 4X4 2F

"RARE full size 1984 North-American spec Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 for sale. VERY SOLID. Western truck, just shipped in. Starts right up. Runs good. Needs a good detailing and a paint job to be perfect. Clear title in hand. These FJ60 cruisers are in HIGH DEMAND these days and regularly sell for over $40,000 when finished. Very easy light project or drive as-is while it appreciates in value."


Wow, gotta love CL ads. Asking price on this one is $17,500 and thats probably about $14,000 too high. The wheels alone should be an indication of the problems with this vehicle.

WOW

PA CL, CA phone # and MO plates.

And a heavy dose of sleazy Nigerian scammer language.

Hahaha, maybe he misstyped, and rather wanted to put down 1750.

 

[Paul DiNapoli]

you gotta pay extra to get "full size" FJ60.

who knew all this time we're all just driving half sizers??

 

[3_puppies]

apparently if you overfill the tank with gas it will take the paint off.
no rust, except for where the rear bumper is falling apart.

I like this line..."Needs a good detailing and a paint job to be perfect". Hmmm, are you sure?

 

[CharlesDarwin]

Pack your bags up everyone, looks like he sold it for $14,500 a few nights ago...

Lol LC

 

[fjman]

That response is actually pretty funny

i sent the seller a link to the bring a trailer sold auctions - this was the reply

"Hi, it’s already sold. If you’re so smart then why did I get $14,500 cash for it two nights ago?? thanks for the tip but a good condition FJ60 is worth 30k plus in the current market and I had plenty of people who offered 13-15k...just saying.

Thanks again for your “interest” "

i find it hard to believe anyone would pay 14,500 for that POS...its entirely possible that he's full of s***e. i can't imagine anyone paying 14,500 for that thing...but maybe there really is a sucker born every day?

I still have a little remaining faith in humanity to believe that nobody paid him close to that. I guarantee he still has the truck.

a good samaritan out there - hopefully potential buyers in the philly area will see this and do some homework.

Y'all were right. It's still available

 

[bigredmachine]

I like the distinct lack of pics of the frame, wonder how crusty and rusty it is

 

[fordoford]

He also told me he’s getting a 5000 dollar paint job this week that will bring up the value

1981 Toyota Diesel Landcruiser

$75k

 

[georgebj60]

I wonder what's in the back that makes it worth 75k?

 

[bugsnbikes]

I’m guessing there’s 6 x 1hdt/5speeds in the back under that canvas !!

 

[SUMMIT CRUISERS]

Not a straight panel on this one. Even the grill looks crooked.
