1988 Toyota Land Cruiser HJ61

Beautiful HJ61 from Japan, imported a year and a half ago
Since its a JDM import the vin is only ten digits:HJ61010562
-136K mi (219,xxx km) on the clock
-most desirable turbo-diesel 12HT engine, turbo is responsive and strong
-automatic
-with factory manual locking differentials (cable lockers)
-4" lift (lift was installed in japan so not sure of the make)
-35" BFGs with 60% tread left
-new Blaupunkt head unit with BlueTooth and GPS
-interior is 8 out of 10 - dash has a well executed re-cover job, seats and carpet are in great shape, and they have the "TURBO" upholstery which I love
Since I've had it:
-entire fuel system run through - gas tank dropped and cleaned, flushed fuel lines, injectors and injector pump cleaned and run through
-new brake pads and rear drums / shoes
-turbo run through and adjusted
-all fluids changed
-underbody sprayed with rubber coat
Issues:
-passenger side window switch needs replacement (switch included in sale, easy replacement)
-grey smoke on cold start when its below freezing
-diff lock cables need replacing, existing ones are frozen
-the cruiser was parked in Brooklyn and one day a random 2" scratch appeared on the RR quarterpanel (pictured)-a little rust is developing in 2 spots: on the bottom corner of the driver side door, and a little way up where the quarter panel meets the hood (both pictured)
-power antenna is a little sticky.
-moon roof motor gear is stripped (its closed fully and doesn't leak)
-washer fluid bottle is cracked and needs replacing.
If you don't already know these vehicles:
This is the high-roof version of the Land Cruiser that was only available in Japan, Australia, and a handful of other countries but not in the US. They were all manufactured with RIGHT HAND DRIVE. I admit I was nervous to buy a RHD vehicle, but within an hour of driving I got used to it and now its as natural as breathing.
I am selling because I have moved to an 80 series overland rig.
Thanks for looking!
