Good morning! Just out of curiosity after noticing that MFD on the VIN plate is SEP 1987 and not being able to do much more than decode the VIN online...

Does anyone know the first production month of the 1988 FJ62 (for North America)? What the 1st VIN # could have been?

Again, my production date was SEP 1987 and VIN JT3FJ62G5J0075870

Thanks!

This is from copies of the parts microfiche. Starting frame number seems to be 074006. This is also the last six digits of the VIN. But the 2nd list shows something different. I suppose these are two different manufacturing plants?

Thanks! That's pretty cool information. Looks like it may have been the 1846th built for USA or somewhere around that.
 
@2mbb Do these sheets exist for the 60 somewhere here on Mud? I did a search and couldn't find anything. Really neat info.
 
Very cool - 8708 build date, vin 75034. Looks like mine was the 995th one built for the US market.
 
Here are some similar pages for the FJ60
@2mbb do you have anything for non-US 62s? Mine has a production date of 10/85. if I’m looking at mine correctly, it would’ve been one of the earliest built at least within the first eight weeks. The production line was stood up. Assuming that production started Oct 1 and my truck was built to December 31.
