No Reserve

I bought this from Scott at Eco Off Road. it was his daily driver. He had just finished a short bed with a B3. 3 and a 5 speed.  He had Proffit cruisers install the rebuilt axles. Cummins B3. 3 (crate motor) and the TH475 automatic transmission some time around 2005.   It has later model fine spline axles with 3. 73 gears. power brakes with front disc. Saginaw power steering. Toyota split transfer case. and 2. 5" lift.

I added the Warn 8274 last year ($1500. 00) and  5 new tires (33's). Spare wheel not an exact match of what's on truck but close enough.  I also have pipe doors that go with the truck (great when you take the top off). New battery last week. Tool box lid is dented and key is broken off in lock so it stays locked all the time and I use a screwdriver to unlock. High lift jack stays with truck.

Truck was originally red and someone did a great job on the green paint. Some body filler in a couple of spots if you get out a magnet but not much and great for the age of the truck. not a rust bucket.  Some places are a little faded but some wax will brighten it up. Drivers door has a hole cut on the inside to help get lower hinge bolts out. The original metal holder that held the nuts had rusted away. One bolt is broken off on the passenger door lower hinge. Wipers work but need replaced and the arm on the passenger side does not match correctly. Both door vents have been sealed closed since I bought it and the drivers door is missing the hardware. Heater box and hoses are rough but work well enough for California for I was planning to add vintage air some day.

Less than 10. 00 miles on the motor (new crate) since installed. I do not have any idea of original mileage on the truck it's self.

If I was going to keep it I would get the fuel tank sealed. When filled up the seams get wet. No big deal because I use it so little so I have not done it. Both seats need repair or recovered at sometime also. I have not checked but I do not think it has a thermostat in it. Runs between 160 and 180 degrees on the flat with the electric fan off. On a long hill temp may rise to a little over 200 degrees before the fan kicks in then the temp goes down as you are going up hill. Great cooling system. aluminum radiator with dual fans. If I lived in a cooler area I would add the thermostat.

Glass has no cracks but there are some scratches. Windows roll up and down a little stiff.

Will cruise 65 all day long but will only get around 20mpg at that speed.   I get 22 to 24 mpg cruising around town.

I can send more pictures and take some more if needed.

Currently registered in California and is available for inspections. Please come take a look.

It runs great. drives great and will last somebody a very long time. This is not a trailer queen or a gussied up import just a great all around truck.

Just realized that cruiser fest is next month. If the buyer is interested after payment I can keep the FJ at my house and if you fly into Sacramento I'll pick you up take you to your truck so you can head to cruiser fest.

Had a couple of people ask about the stereo system. None. I find that singing is better for the soul. Dash is uncut. holes where old 4 wheel drive handle was and misc. from factory. Good places for toggles for added accessories in the future. Went to town this morning and remembered that the emergency brake is hooked up but needs adjustment. Right now it won't hold do-do.

 

Truck now shows 9750 miles as of 8/10/13.

Reserve the right to end the auction early. Thanks for looking.
