REGISTERED AND FOREVER SMOG EXEMPT IN CALIFORNIA. HAS CALIFORNIA PLATES THAT ARE NOW ON THE TRUCK.
This is a 1987 FJ60 that has been professionally converted to a Toyota 2H Diesel (by Cruiser Solutions). It recently had the engine replaced by an allegedly low mileage 2H after the first was destroyed by a later installed turbo. Also includes an upgrade to the legendary Toyota H55 5 speed manual transmission. Here is an 11 part video series of the restoration.
- Currently running on diesel, will run biodiesel no problem.
- Fully dynomatted interior
- Newer 2H engine
- Rebuilt alternator
- new clutch
- Brand new, aluminum radiator, keeps the engine cool.
- Brand new 16" alloy wheels and new 32" AT tires (complete set installed less than 2K miles ago).
- Sweet bumper with Warn Winch, swing away spare tire carrier.
- Old Man Emu lift kit.
- Front seats are fully functional BMW seats in leather with all electronic controls working.
-AC blows cold.
- Nice Kenwood stereo with 4 speakers.
- New fuel injectors
- New carpeting
The good - what you see. The last year of one of the greatest trucks/suvs ever built, in amazing shape, with a fuel efficient and bomb-proof diesel engine and the best transmission you can get. Has a glow plug bypass button installed to help heat the glow plugs for easier startup - and it starts right up and runs strong every time. Not a speed demon, but it will go anywhere. Everything works as it should. Over 40K invested in this truck. USA truck with the powertrain that it should have had from the beginning. Chassis has about 135,000 miles and engine allegedly has 160,000 miles.
The bad - couple small rust spots and paint scratches/chips - see photos. Hood looks like it is not original - paint matches but fit is a little weird - see pics. A new hood can be had for a couple of hundred bucks. There is some rust along the roof line, fairly common on these. The body shop said he could fix the roof, hood, and tailgate for about $1,500. It is almost 30 years old - it ain't perfect but it ain't far off.
$17,500 OBO. I would be willing to trade for an FJ62 (or FJ60, possibly) in decent shape plus cash. I am open to offers, but let's be reasonable. Thanks!
