ABOUT THIS FJ60 - Selling As IsThis is a rust free west coast truck newly on the east coast and ready for its new owner - preferably someone who knows and loves the Land Cruiser ethic and the process of refurbishing and upgrading these amazing trucks which will last forever if well treated. I'm selling the truck as is.
Over the past 1.5 years I've had the truck I've done a lot of the mechanical work and now it is ready for the fun stuff, a reasonable lift, a locking differential, whatever sounds fun. I hate to sell it, but my family situation has changed and we need to channel our resources elsewhere at the moment.
This FJ60 spent most of its life on back roads in New Mexico. It has high miles but many of these can be attributed to the truck being towed behind an RV, so I was told by the previous owner. And, I believe them as the compression on the cylinders is good, and I've driven this truck from California to New York, to Kentucky and back, without incident.
There is no rust on the frame, the metal is in good shape, and if the gaskets and seals are properly maintained this vehicle should last another 30 years.
It may not be in exactly mint condition but this is still a totally stock, rust free, west cost truck newly on the east cost. It has been my daily driver for the past 1.5 years and now its ready for a new owner to finish the restoration.
