Up for auction is my 1985 Toyota FJ60 Land Cruiser. Chances are if your looking at this you already know what awesome vehicles these can be. I purchased this mid summer wanting to restore it but I have since changed my mind to wanting a 80 Series Cruiser instead. This LC has had 2 previous owners and has been in Ohio its whole life. Fortunately when it was new the owner took it to Tuff-Kote Dinol and had the entire truck undercoated. This has kept the frame and undercarriage in good shape over the years. Dont get me wrong it does have rust but no bad scaling or broken frame pieces like you might expect for a Cruiser in Ohio. As you can see from pics the body has some rust and holes but nothing that couldn't be fixed. I lifted carpet and looked at usual trouble spots around wheel wells and this area is in very good shape. Inside back sill by tailgate is rust free as well. This LC is not currently road ready. It has not run in a couple years at least. Previous owner said last time it ran was in 2008 or so. She couldnt really remember. I poured some gas down the carb a couple days ago and filled the float bowl so the sight window was full and then tonight I checked oil for any moisture and it was clean and moisture free so I put a battery in it and she fired right up. Got it to idle for a few seconds while my buddy poured gas into the carb. Motor sounded good and I think with a carb clean or possible rebuild it will be good to go. The gas tank was empty as well. I put a container of dry gas in it along with about 2 gallons of gas and the gauge went up slightly. I loosened the fuel inlet line at the carb and some gas did spray out so its getting to carb. I'd guess the float or needle is stuck from sitting. I havent dug into it any further yet. I did notice the choke cable is froze and will need replaced or lubed. It looks like all SMOG equipment is still installed too. You can tell by the shape of the interior that this LC has led a pretty easy life. All body mounting points and frame crossmembers are in good shape. Inner fenders etc etc are all solid. All windows roll down and all doors lock. The back door opens and locks as it should too. Both bumpers are in decent shape and the truck has a hitch and is wired for a plug too. When pushing in the clutch it has a good feel to it though I havent driven it yet. Looking around under the truck it appears to have newer brake lines and the fuel supply lines are in good shape as far as I can tell. I think this LC is a great candidate to save and fix the body and drive it for many years to come. The interior is in really nice shape. The carpet and seats have a few stains but with a good shampoo and vacuum they would be respectable as is. The headliners nice and tight too. All gauges appear to work and it has an aftermarket radio in it as well as an auxilary cigarette lighter outlet for a GPS or cell phone car charger. All heater functions work and the blowers work too. This LC has the rear heater in it too. All wipers work and the front washers work too. All lights and turn signals work as they should as well. This LC also has cruise control. Please checkout the pics and let me know if you have questions. I am looking to move this quickly so if you have an offer please dont be shy, worst I'll say is no. If you have an 80 series to trade let me know too. Let me know if you have any questions and I will do my best to answer them. I can work with you on shipping.

I drove it up and down the driveway (we have a long driveway) a few times and it shifts good and 4WD engages as it should and works good too. The brakes will need attention as theres not much pedal. I am guessing the master cylinder needs rebuilt or replaced. Theres no leaks in the brake lines. A couple other things to note is its going to need a muffler and tailpipe and new front pads and rotors. I tested all heater functions and it blows hot air both out the defrost and the front heater vents, the rear heater works too. So just wanted to give an update. Obviously it idles a little rough and could use a tune up but its running and I'm sure will run better the more its run. Motor sounds good, no valvetrain noise or anything. I also added a few additional pics of the rear gate area as its rust free other then some surface rust where the 4wd emblem was. I also added a closeup pic of the cruise control stalk. You can also see an aftermarket brake control in the pic too that was installed by the previous owner ****
