4/5/24: update: I just saw this relisted on Facebook. If you come across it the guy that bought it from me is trying to flip it at a huge markup. Beware though, I know the amount of work the truck needs and it’s a lot, someone will lose their butt if they buy it for 16k as he is relisting it for. Around 12 would be as high as I would pay for it. It’s not a California truck and needs a lot.
Thank you for all those that expressed interest. As a side note, if you are in need of a cruiser mechanic in the Denver/ Springs area, Donnie Lovett did the work on the truck and was awesome. Great work, fairly priced, insanely knowledgeable. His social is @DonnieLovett and I think he posts things regularly as far as what his current projects are and a good way to get in contact with him.
Update: I will officially have the truck back this Sunday, March 17th, so I can finally show her to anyone who expressed interest. Thank you!

I have had the major issues repaired such as new shock tube, as well as Trail Tailor C channel replacement so she can live a longer life and for somebody to take over and enjoy the vehicle. 1989 FJ62 For Sale. $10k. Selling complete without parting things like bumper. Why am I selling it? Kids and the realization of never having the time to fix it. It’s time to let it go so it can be on the road and not sitting in the garage for another 20 years. My wife and I decided getting a Tundra makes more sense for our lives in general.
The good:
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

The good:
- 150K original miles
- Original owner gave it annual winter undercoatings that really protected the truck from rust/rot
- Engine runs strong
- Runs and drives
- Garage kept
- ARB bumper
- Ironman 2.5" lift
- Upgraded to 4runner brake master cylinder
- No cracks in dash
- Truck is mainly complete with all its original parts. (I have rear door panel not attached in photo)
- CTS in Conifer did brake work on it three years ago, replaced fuel filter, and some other basic work
- Extra parts include rear top hatch door, front quarter, and two doors.
- Newly fabricated rear shock hanger and shocks
- Trail Tailor rear c channel frame braces installed.
- Tuned up
- No major rot issues on truck, primarily surface rust except for rusted lower quarters that can chopped for sliders or repaired. Rust around top hatch lock. Areas that normally rot like frame and roof gutters are good.
- Extra body panels: Two doors, front quarter, and top hatch.
- It leaks at the oil pan.
- Rust on lower quarters, the plan was to chop and put sliders. It's isolated without the whole body panel being shot and a good candidate for a repair panel. . Rust on rear hatch near lock button.
- Needs muffler/ exhaust.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
