The intior is in good shape and the rear window works fine. It is currently inspected and registered in Texas. The title is clear and in my posession. Please contact me for more info or pics. Thanks, Colby (423)426-2791 $6500 obo

1987 FJ60 For Sale
This is the second Cruiser that I have had the priveledge of owning. My first was a 78 fj40 which I lost to a fire when I was 19. I was fortunate enough to find my fj60 soon after which was still owned by the 1st owner. It has been my primary driver from 1993 to 2003. The reason I am selling is because I want to get back into the fj40 game.
As far as the body goes , she is blue and does have some rust and dents in the lower tailgate along with a dent in the left hind quarter panel that is low and not too terribly noticeable. It was dented when I bought it and I neglected to fix it ,so rust set in on the tailgate but is minimal on the rest of the truck.
Mechanically, I can't complain, but still want to inform ya'll of some work. The biggest and most expensive thing I had to replace is the transmission because the old one would slip out of first gear. Aside from that , I have replaced the radiator, master/slave cylinder, battery and alternator. The 4 wheel drive works great and it will also run strong on the highway. A few added features are the Alpine radio and tape deck with Boston acoustic speakers in the front doors and sony 6x9's in the back. I will also include the Yakima roof rack and the fire extinguisher in the back. The tires are on/off road and fairly new. Also, The interior has been well kept .
It has 170,000 miles and I am asking $5800 obo.

Where's mah cruzah?
No daughters, and my dog will kick his ass if he tries anything on him... 
Don't rule out a 60 series. They look a little bland when they are stock to the untrained eye, but they make great rigs for trips that require a little gear and you can sleep in the back for overnighters. They are all Cruiser underneath their unassuming exterior and with a few simple mods they make great machines.
That seems like a fair deal on Polarweasel's 40 from the description and pics. Plus it's great excuse to come back out to Colorado, pick up your new rig, spend a few great September days in the mountains flyfishing and drinking all the beer from his fridge.

I definitely agree with Gulp on the 60 recommendation, too. They certainly won't go everywhere a 40 will, just due to the size, but damn there's a lot more room in 'em!
Now about that beer... You were gonna bring some over to help stock the fridge when Brad comes out, weren't you, Gulp?

pro's is that the 3b is a stout little engine. Problem in denver is that it's anemic in the mountians.. maybe worst than my 2f with larger tires and etc. I wouldn't have a 3b for a daily driver. Parts are a little more difficult to get or may take a bit longer but are obtainable. Generally BJ's go for more money than the average cruiser bc of the cool diesel factor. Cost varies greatly depending on condition just as the average cruiser does. Otherwise the bj42's kick serious butt if you like diesel and cruisers.
