Default 1984 Troppy FJ45 in Texas

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=150032657819



I purchased my 1984 FJ45 vehicle completely restored from Stephen Radhl over a year ago. He restored this cruiser from the ground up. If it needed a part, he got it from his friend Marv @ Spector Off Road. It originally came from Saudi Arabia. Stephen had to originally register this cruiser as a 1970 to import into California, I guess there was a 25 year old import law? It is a 1984 FJ45, and has a clear texas title and registered in Tx.

Completely stock 1984 FJ45 Toyota Land Cruiser Troop Carrier. LHD, Gasoline, 4x4, Factory A/C, P/S, 4 Speed transmission.

I added 2.5 inch Old Man Emu heavy duty lift kit, Old Man Emu heavy duty shocks, springs and heavy duty steering stabilizer kit. Daniel @ Wimberly 4x4 who specializes in old cruisers did the work.

I added a 2.5 inch custom exhaust pipe and flowmaster muffler to give it a clean running sound.

I added a Alpine flip out screen TV DVD Player and Radio for my kids to watch TV when I drop them off for school.

It has a military hitch. I has a custom storage bin to store stuff below the windshield.

It has Eleven toyota seat belts. Brakes are in perfect condition, Original split rims, tires have 70% tread left.

Mechanically, this cruiser runs and drives ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. EVERYTHING, I mean EVERYTHING is in pristine working condition. The Cruiser has 205 miles when it arrived to Texas from California. It was a rebuild engine that Marv's head mechanic from Spector Off Road worked on. I have put 17K Miles this year on it. I have taken it to Dallas for the Texas/OU game. Cruised at 75mph no problem for 3 1/2 hours straight. Cranks right up everytime, not even needing a choke start. It leeks no oil or fluids. It has a couple of surface rust spots on the back of the ambulance door, only thing keeping car from being museum quality.

You will not ever find a nicer rarer fj45 Cruiser in the world.

Selling Cruiser because I am purchasing a Double Decker bus to restore for my next project.

Yeah, they are really rare though, and this guy seems to think his is the cleanest in existence. A fair price is when the seller and buyer agree... so who are we to say he is crazy? I wouldn't pay 30 large for that, though.
