Year is 1986- chassis has 196k motor has estimate 25k- I purchased it off a cruiserhead who got it from an Japanese Market FJ60 firetruck. It is factory desmogged and has a slighter hotter cam for est 155hp- clutch was replaced shortly before I bought it and looked new when I had the transmission put in. All the photos you could want are in the ROTM link in my sig. If you need more than what is there let me know.

sorry lots of details to remember- dash cap covers cracked dash- h55 runs at about 2500 at 75-80mph on the highway. Highway on my trip to FL was about 17 avg
I know you don't wanna hear it and I am not going to be part of the "don't sell" chorus....persay....
If you have any other "primary", contemporary vehicle...say a 05 Jetta or whatever...contemplate ditching that and making your 60 your primary. As a $20k rig (which if any is it's this one---and Princess) compare it to what you would get at the dealer right now for $20K...This truck is 10 times the vehicle.
I'm not bustin your balls, but it the rest has gone to $hi~, at least you should get to keep the Cruiser.
It's kinda like getting to keep the Irish Setter or the Shotguns.
All seriousness though, good luck with the sale if its what you truly need to get done.

smky it literally pains me to see this one fall out of your hands! You've made this one great I always refer back to it for ideas. If and when you sell it, please tell me the cure for LCOCD, I am going into the service and I don't know what I am going to do with myself.
lol, I'd take this over any year lx any day. Different appeal my friend.
