We are all rooting for you (and secretly, jealous that we don’t have the coin to bring it home).

I can't stop thinking about how the past three cruisers you have put on BAT, would have done if you posted them last year. I hope tomorrow it makes sense for you!

Agree. Its a true market now to be honest.

I’m good with this but I also can’t believe what the real s***ty trucks sell for.
I was glad to see it over $60K instead of just over $40K, but totally agree.
That $100K+ one just left me shaking my head, but it's still crazy considering the ones they slap a coat of paint on and bring North that get $30K~$50K and then this one languishes in comparison.

Congrats!
I've gone back and forth about selling on BAT. See some pretty crappy LS swaps go for $$$$ when they just threw a junkyard motor in. The attention to detail is looked over quite often there.
I have the 86 full frame off resto-mod I'm building now and am considering BAT, but the reserve will put most out of the game on it.

If you've ever done a build like this yourself, you'll realize how it's worth every dime. Particularly when it is obvious there's love for the vehicles involved, not just profit.

This brings up uncomfortable complicated emotions. What a great 60 with a great story. I hope her next 35 years are as fun as her first.
The iconic Ole Blue FJ60 is available!
The truck ended up local to me and I have helped the new owner sort a couple of very minor issues.
He let me know he would like to sell the truck, please PM and I can connect you with the current owner.

Fun memories in this ole 60. Found this rig for my brother in Colorado in 2005.
We both happened to be on I-40 when he drove it home to Alabama and met up on the side of the highway.
It's lived nine lives since then.
