Looking for a nice rig that is ready to rock. I currently own an '88 FJ62 with only 117k miles that I love, but may be losing the battle with rust. While I wait to see if she can be saved, I figure I should at least begin looking for a replacement. I am no mechanic, just a lover of these fine automobiles, and would love to find one already "built up." Sorry, I am a newbie and don't have all the lingo down. Would prefer a manual (H55) with all the fixings. I was one of the interested parties in that rig from Wilmington whose owner decided not to sell, so my search continues. Not really sure of my budget, but shooting for $15k or less. Could probably stretch as high as $20k for the perfect one. Here is my wish list:
RUST FREE
H55
EMU or similar 2'ish lift
33's
ARB (or similar) bumpers, running boards,roof rack, etc.
Spare carrier on rear
While I can appreciate the heck out of the all original rig, I love upgrades and improvements so newer seats, gadgets, etc. are right up my alley.
I live in Maryland, near Annapolis. Not sure if I am supposed to keep checking this thread, but feel free to email me at rsboray@yahoo.com if you've got one to show. Thanks guys.
Any pointers to help fight the rust (other than move out of Maryland) would also be greatly appreciated.
