The Sage Sage - FJ60 Toyota Land Cruiser - West Coast Car Recently on East Coast

Description

ABOUT THIS FJ60This is really great, solid truck and I hate to sell it, but my family situation has changed and we need tochannel our resources elsewhere at the moment.
This FJ60 is a little rougharound the edges but runs great and isextremely reliable. I've done a lot of the mechanical work and it is now the perfect project car for anyone who loves the Land Cruiser ethic and the process of refurbishing andupgrading these amazing trucks.
The truck spent most of its time in New Mexico. Many of the thetruck'smiles I was told, can be attributed to the truck being towed behind an RV. I bought it out west 1.5 years ago and drove it to New York without out any breakdowns. I've taken it on several other long trips without incident.There is no rust on the frame.
I've spent a lot of time fixing the various fluid leaks due to cars age and the problems typically associated with this model, such as overheating and warped manifold leading to exhaust penetrating the cabin. The vehicle has been de-smogged.
This is still a mostly 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.
