Ha ha. You don't know much about my mechanical skills.
It looks like they did not put the long tower on the front when they did the shackle reversal. That keeps the pinion angle and the caster correct.
It could just be the photograph making it look that way.
Its a real nice Cruiser. Mark is crazy as a s***house rat but that cruiser is nice.
Worth about $2000 IMO
Did you contact this guy?

This is the build he did on a 60, which was based on what he did on the 40.

I think this is going to be out of my price range, but we will see.

Hmm, I have thought that. Nobody in the family wants me to sale the 62. They love that truck. It is a great color also.
AMEN....

Only thing is, it would take a lot more than 15,000.
What motor did he put in there? Wonder how hard it would be to put a 2UZ-FE in the 62.

Looks to be a Chevy 6.0.
A Chevy motor would take a LOT less to get in there than a Toyota V8. There are adapters, pre made wiring harnesses, etc
$15000 is not a bad target for a Motor/Tranny swap and a spring over. I bet it could be done if you found the right guy. I bet Pat would do it for that.
I think a spring-over, V8, Auto FJ-60 is the s*** personally. Lots of room, classic Cruiser looks.....

Gary's old white 62 was for sale a few months ago for 22k with the Mericruiser
I agree with Nolen. A Toyota V8 will be a lot more work than a tried-and-true Chevy V8.
Your 62 would be a cool platform to build up, Mike.
