Gents.....I'm Looking for a clean mostly stock survivor, small lift ok. Must be rust free, red and manual. Will travel to the right rig. Tall order, I know, but they are out there. Sun fade on the paint is perfect. I have a built 80 that would be considered for trade if that works, have cash too. Hope this pans out. Thanks.

Good luck on your search, I like the red ones too, but don't worry about peeling clear coat. They didnt put clear on the red ones. All the non-metallic colors are single stage enamel; the metallic colors got the clear coat.
 
Did you see the one i posted in Oregon? - Not mine - just found the Craigslist ad and posted it here.
 
OK, cool. I saw another fellow that took the round headlights and just bolted them in place, apparently they fit perfectly. As far as the manual is concerned, 1800.00 and a 5 speed can be yours.

Overlander 80,

I'm thinking of cutting loose of my '85 FJ60, red, manual, 170K miles. Paint's in great shape as it's always had covered parking. Hasn't been off-roaded and runs well. No significant rust. Asking $9750. Happy to supply more details and pics on request.

Thanks for posting this Mike. I would love more pictures and details!
 
Did you ever find a red FJ60? If not, I have one that I will be selling soon. It is red, original paint, currently faded. I haven't buffed it out yet. I just did a completed tune up. TLC Performance rebuilt carb, new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil, battery, fuel filter in the last month. I have all new brakes, new clutch, and parts to rebuild the transfer case. That is what I was going to work on next. Let me know if you are still hunting for one.

Still on the hunt. I'll PM you my email address and we can exchange more information. Please don't buff the paint back to shiny :)

Mike,

I sent you a private message here on this site requesting more information a while back. Did you get it?

my email is tomschervish (AT) gmail if that works better for you.

Thanks!
