For Sale: 1986 FJ60 - 33's, custom bumper, rear disc
OFF THE MARKET. I'm keepin her.
I have a 1986 Tan FJ60 I am putting up for sale with 195,xxx miles
I'm the third owner and have owned it since April of 2005.
I REALLY don't want to sell it, but my wife wants an 80 and I can't afford both. We bought it after selling her car, so it's technically hers.
I would prefer to sell if locally to someone here in Colorado, so I am going to offer it here to MUD and finally to the internet.
$6000 for MUD Members. I will post it for $7000 on the internet if it hasn't sold by then.
I will post everything I see as wrong with it, not to scare anyone off, but so there are no surprises.
Upgrades/replacements/recent work:
-New Alpine MP3/CD Stereo
-2 new front Alpine speakers and 2 Alpine speakers added to rear compartment.
-Land Cruiser Bottle Opener installed on rear hatch :thumb:
-Rear Add A Leafs installed (long version)
-Rear ball hitch (not a receiver hitch
-Front winch pre-runner style bumper by JKCustoms in Texas
-Upgraded IPF eurospec lights with 55watt H4 bulbs
-New Battery
-New battery connectors
-New alternator
-K&N Filter
-All fuilds drained in the last 18 months except coolant
-POR-15 rust preventative for frame and underbody. Could use another coat, but it survived the last 2 winters in Connecticut
-Newish wheels (JTOutfitters 15x8) installed last December.
-Newish BFG AT's 33x15x12.5 installed last December.
-Rear disk conversion by Cruiser Creations in NH
-New windshield
-New wheel studs on rear hubs
-Front grill and headlight surrounds painted flat black
-New clutch
The Bad:
-Some rust on left side and 3 small spots below rear window. I am leaving this so buyer can decide extent they want to repair. I don't want to take the cheap route that the PO took to fix the lower left side rust. It showed up about a year after I bought it and is not new. I hit a guard rail in CT sliding on some ice and had the whole right side repaired and repainted at Cruiser Creations. The hood was repainted at the same time.
-Leaks some oil.
-The carb cooler fan works when connected to direct power, but does not come on automatically. The wiring is good, but I haven't tracked it farther than that.
-The headlight washer system has a leak in it. I don't ever use it, so it was a low priority to fix.
-The tint on the front passenger window is coming off from the front bottom. I got it tinted when I bought it and the tinter warranty has expired, so I have not replaced it yet.
-I had the brakes serviced and they left two lug nuts off the right front wheel, so I replaced them with chrome lug nuts that are slightly smaller than the rest.
The suspension is in so-so shape with the AAL, but I was planning on a complete OME kit in the next 6 months to make it a top notch drive.
Other:
-Currently registered in CT. I haven't registered in CO yet, but have never had issues with emissions.
-Everything else is in good working order and this is one of the better FJ60's out there. I get comments on it daily and everyone (except my wife) thinks I am idiot for selling it, including me.
And now the pics:
Shortly after I bought her:
Currently:
I will take some pictures of the rust and interior (which is in excellent condition) and post them later.
PM me if you have any questions.
