Moving to Spain so need to sell my 1985 FJ60. Bought from the original owner in July 2021. This FJ60 spent most of its life in the Portland, OR area with trips to the coast. I brought it down to SoCal in 2021. I installed a 5 speed transmission, OME lift, replaced the exhaust, rebuilt the knuckles and replaced the radiator. Installed a bluetooth capable stereo with new door speakers and added 6x9 speakers in the back. The 60 is running well right now. I did recently have an issue with the engine not being able to idle so I took the carb off and cleaned out the idle circuit and fuel bowl. Also replaced the fuel pump and fuel filter at that time, about a month ago.
Paint & Body: When I purchased the hood was mostly primer along with some primer on the driver side fender. I sanded the hood down to bare metal and then used rattle can epoxy and high build primers, rattle can paint made with the factory paint code and then rattle can clear coat. It turned out okay. A while later I painted the driver side front door. That's why the driver side picture looks like there are three different shades of paint. I started removing all of the chrome. The C channels in the rear of the frame also needed to be replaced. The roof is pretty oxidized and could use some paint. The front leaks on both sides when it rains, I think the gutters need new sealant but I guess it could also be the windshield, idk. I purchased and installed the C channel kit from Trail Tailor.
Rear bumper LED lights are installed but not connected/wired.
Trade: We are looking for a 2015 or newer Toyota with decent gas mileage that has less than 100,000 miles for our daughter. Would be willing to trade for the right car.
Edit: There are pictures below that show some rust spots on the tailgate. That primer paint was done be the previous owner, I did not have a chance to work on the tailgate. I was going to cut the tailgate open to check the rust situation and then install some type of tailgate storage.
