As the title states , looking to sell my "89 FJ62

- just under 300k miles, but top end has been freshened up, starts on first twist of the key
- spring over lift with the shortest available shackles (3" front, 4" rear), steering has been corrected
- BFGoodrich KM2s with 90-95% tread
- custom front bumper (Custom Cruisers) with off brand winch and lightbar (both have performed way beyond my expectations
- custom rear bumper (Custom Cruisers) with dual swing outs, high lift jack, gas can rack, spare full size tire
- rock sliders (Custom Cruisers)
- new Bilsteins all the way around
- recently rebuilt trans, less than 1000 miles ago
- custom storage drawer system in the back with panel top that converts the back to one big flat area to sleep on (will throw in the 4" memory foam pad, if wanted)
- Powertank on the side of drawer system, hidden under top panel + "Power Tank" brand pressure gauge
- Misc pull straps, Hi-Lift adapters, and other extraction gear

- interior is about 90-95%, overall is in excellent condition
- exterior is about 80-85%, a few nicks, dings, one small rust spot (pictured) , and a scrape to the primer pre rock sliders
- Roof gutters are clean, NO RUST
- Locking hubs are still smooth and in great condition

I have piles of receipts for maintenance and upgrades going back over 6 years, such as -

- new distributor, cap, rotor
- transmission rebuild (less than 1000 miles on rebuild)
- rebuilt head, re-ring, hone cylinders etc
- new Optima Red Top (brand new, month old)
- just passed California smog 2 weeks ago, and was detailed 2 days ago.

Disclosure
- small rust spot on left side wagon window seal (only rust spot)
- scrape down to primer on driver side doors (pre slider installation scrape)
- Window frames will need some adjustment to be more free moving, they work fine (electric windows), but are slow, also have another set of window frames and actuators.
- Small leak from right front knuckle, very small weep, as typical for Cruisers
- Small weepy leak from rear engine seal, also typical of 25 yr old Cruisers
- Tail gate panel inserts are broken, so it pops off from time to time (the carpeted interior panel)
- Speedo is about 5mph off due to the 33" tires


Overall this rig is a fantastic FJ62 specimen, and is in fantastic shape for being 25 years old. It gets crappy gas mileage, as they all do (about 10mpg), but the engine is still strong, and starts on the first key twist, never overheats.

Asking $13,500

if you have any more questions, or would like more detailed pics or video, please shoot me a PM with your contact info, and what you would like more info on.

I sent you a PM yesterday -- do you have more photos of the interior (both back seat and front seat)?

None of those listed, I have taken it to Hollister Hills several times to start getting used to its capabilities, and several light trails up in the Santa Cruz Mountains area (nothing really all that difficult to mention) really just to see where it's at, that's when the big fat wide 35" tires came off in exchange for the 33" tires, and it was lowered to its current state along with new shocks and corrected steering.

The reality is for me, although I have always loved this particular model, at this point in life for what I want to do, it's not the rig for me. It's a 25 year old truck, and although overall it's in great condition, it needs a home with someone that likes to work on their rig doing ongoing maintenance, and updates/upgrades as they are needed, and had I had the money say ten years ago, I would be all over it, but I have a small business to tend to, and just don't have the time.
