Older thread with more info!
I have had this FJ60 for a few years and it has been fun to drive and to work on. I had a 40 that I did a load of work on before this and while the 40 was fun I didn't feel real great about piling the family into it. The 60 has been super fun and was a great addition. I am selling because the family has a big moving coming in the next few months and it is time someone else gets to enjoy this truck. If I move to a place with enough garage space then I would consider keeping it, but again, it may be time someone else gets to have some fun. It runs well and would be a great vehicle for someone to turn some wrenches. Always stuff to work on on an old 60, am I right??! I have a load of pics and will include as many as possible. If someone would like more pics I am happy to send some. I know the market is wonky and I am not under the impression this is a restored 60. It needs some work and has some great bones! I am happy to answer any questions you may have.
