Is anyone interested in Ming - our 89 FJ62. He needs to go. We're original owners and it's lived it life in the NW suburbs. There is rust in all the usual spaces but it runs strong. The tranny is leaking and there is an issue with reliability in that we have sporadic no-starts stalling. I think that it's the fuel pump but don't want to deal with dropping the tank to replace it. The radiator leaks too. It really hasn't run in 2 years but has been in heated storage.

Ming has approx. 219,000 miles but has had a steady diet of Mobil 1 every 5k. MAF "header", 2" SOR lift, Scion radio, fog lights and is pretty much stock. Rear speakers have been replaced - original speaker grills retained. Tires are decent but on the old side. Interior is nice - sheepskin seat covers. AC was working the last time it was out. Battery is 2 years old but has been on a trickle charger.

Title is clear - looking for $3k. DM if you’re interested. Truck is in Palatine, Illinois

Thanks,
Harry

Seriously original owner, you bought it new?

I can get photos this afternoon - it needs a wash. Yes - we are the original owners. Ming was purchased from Nugent Toyota in Crystal Lake which is now Pauly Toyota. Ming was my wife's DD for 19 years. We still have the Mulroney sticker and receipts dating back to 89.
 
Original owner? That's awesome! Good luck with the sale.
 
Harry,

I just saw this today on FB Marketplace. I want Ming! Get me back on messenger - I'm right next door to you.
 
Congrats
