1985 solid front axle with efi. This is a rust free California 4runner with a straight unmolested body, a fresh rebuild with less than 1000 miles using an Engnbldr street rv head and cam (details below) The exterior has been bed lined with Al's liner which works well on trails to protect the body as well as being great for protection from anything else. The truck will come without fog lights unless specified. Truck rides on some older Dunlop 31x10.50 with 40% tread on Rock Crawler steelies  and with the engine combo can cruise at 75 all day and get 20 mpg on 91 octane. I recently rebuilt the knuckles with a Marlin kit tht came with HD seals and koyo bearings. Drivetrain is basically stock with the exemption of the street rv setup. The interior is a 7/10 with some general wear and tear in the cargo area. Dash is perfect with no cracks and inclinometer works perfect including the light. The right front amber light is cracked and there is a small dent in the right fender where the door meets and I've repaired the bed liner in several places and the color is slightly off but hardly noticeable. I live in a temperate climate and do not have the a/c belt hooked up and would be easy for someone to figure out. This truck runs, drives and stops straight as an arrow and feels solid as a rock with no rattles  I would not hesitate to get in right now as it sits and drive to the far reaches of the earth and back home. There is room to sleep in the back and room for plenty of gear and everything that should work does. This truck has just passed California emissions and has a two year current registration as of yesterday June 19. I want this truck to go to a good home where it will be loved and not hacked like every other classic yota, if you want to hack it, go find another truck, this one is too nice for you. 


Engine details: 
New injectors and all tune up parts including air filter
I had all machine work done by a shop that builds porsche race engines and not one detail got overlooked during this build. 
I built it on a seasoned 22r block using NPR pistons and rings (oem) at .020" over using the type of hone specified by Toyota on a sunnen grinder.
Hot tanked block and painted chevy orange (looks sweet)
Line bore was checked and honed
Crank spec'd near the low end of factory spec and was polished
Rods were reconditioned with new small end manganese bronze bushings
ACL std. Size Alu-Glide big end bearings and Clevite std. Sized main bearings
Engnbldr gasket kit with all viton seals (no leaks of you run synthetics) 
Head gasket copper coated as well as all coolant gaskets. 
Broken in with Brad Penn 30w break in oil and changed at 500. Now has Brad Penn standard 30w at 900 miles
Engine built with engnbldr "steel rail" timing kit to prevent chain slappage through the head. 
This engine was built to last and will run trouble free for hundreds of thousands of miles if taken care of. 
I did not plan on selling my truck and built and treated it as such. Trans has fresh gl-5 80w90 in it as does the t case. The trans is a W56-C from a later model with the cast iron bearing carrier as opposed to the weak early aluminum one that cracks. It shifts butter smooth and makes no noise. 4WD works flawlessly as well. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I am also willing to show truck if requested. I probably miss a few things and have described this truck as accurately as possible. Good luck bidding

BMW could have a fuel cell vehicle by 2020

Sat, Jun 20 2015

The Ultimate Driving Machine may start emitting water vapor, which may not thrill gearheads but could be good for the environment. BMW may have a hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicle to sell as soon as the end of the decade, UK's Auto Express says, citing people familiar with the process that it didn't identify. And the model will likely be sold within the i sub-brand that includes the i3 electric vehicle and the i8 plug-in hybrid. "We are working on fuel cell development, but we are not able to comment on vehicle plans at this stage or timing at this point," BMW spokesman Dave Buchko wrote in an e-mail to AutoblogGreen on Thursday. Chatter about a potential BMW fuel-cell vehicle has been getting louder in recent months. Late last year, Autocar reported that BMW was mulling using Toyota's fuel-cell system for a version of what would be called the i5 (all the better to quietly cruise the interstate running up and down the West Coast, we guess). BMW and Toyota have been working together on accelerating the development of fuel-cell technology since 2013. Toyota has since made good on the effort of selling fuel-cell vehicles by introducing the Mirai in Japan last year and is preparing to start sales in California later this year. But BMW has been mum, so far.

April Fools' Day brings Jeep Sedan, Hyundai N Roadster, Toyota Yaris pickup and more

Mon, Apr 1 2019

There is one day out of the year when public relations professionals have permission to lie to journalists and to the public: April Fools' Day. Manufacturers release details about wild, weird and wacky new technology, concept vehicles and services. Some take it to obvious outlandish extremes (Jeep Sedan anybody?), while others plot to mislead with products that are just outside the realm of possibility. Check out all the "jokes" below. BMW Motorrad BMW doesn't want to exclude anybody from experiencing the thrill of high-level racing, so it is introducing 'iRace" autonomous programming on its S 1000 RR sport bike. It includes beginner, sportsman, advanced and unlimited driving modes, and stores GPS information for all Superbike world championship tracks. Hyundai Hyundai is wrong for this. The Hyundai N Roadster is the work of South Korean designer Yeonjoon Park and features a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, rear-wheel drive and a hard convertible top. Hyundai says this is a "concept (for now)," but we think it'd make a seriously great Mazda Miata competitor. Honda Honda wins the award for the best interactive gimmick, as its press release for the '90s-inspired special-edition Pastport includes a live hotline number with a message from Fred Savage. Call 1-833-PASTPORT for more information. Jeep Put the Jeep Cherokee face on the Chrysler 300's body, and voila! The 2019 Jeep Sedan is born. We can't decide if the name or the rendering is better. Land Rover Accessibility to charging ports is of major concern to anybody with a plug-in vehicle. So, with the recent launch of the Range Rover P400e and Range Rover Sport P400e, Land Rover is putting forth an effort to install more stations around the globe. First up is Scotland's Isle of Skye. Adventurers need juice too! Lexus Australia Lexus expands its Encore service to include doggos. The new service, called Enpaw, will take pups to luxury boarding kennels in style. Toyota U.S. Toyota created the Yaris Adventure pickup for "those who want to tell their friends they own a truck but never veer off pavement." It's part Mazda 2, part RAV4, 100 percent ute and it looks ... great? Creating a new segment might be all fun and games to Toyota, but Ford is reportedly considering a Focus-based ute in a similar, albeit larger, style. Toyota Australia Toyota is launching a new HiAce van, and it's already getting a limited-edition variant called the PieAce.
