1965 Toyota Fj-45 Landcruiser Troopy 4x4 Wagon: Rare Fj45lv, Nice Body! on 2040-cars
Eureka, Montana, United States
I CAN TALK ON THE PHONE IF YOU'D LIKE, AND I CAN MAKE A DEAL ON IT EARLY AT ANY TIME. THANKS 1965 TOYOTA FJ-45 4x4 WAGON These FJ45 wagons are super rare and have a high value when restored. If you going to fix something up, these are great because they are worth more and hold their value well. This fj needs full resto but has a great body for restoration. The exterior is rust free and it is really straight overall. It is 99.99% complete and appears original. This landcruiser was most likely bought new in my hometown. I bought it from a local person that I know that has had it since 1982. It hasn't been titled since then. He bought it from another local gentleman, who I also knew. It hasn't been licensed since 1986. I've looked on ebay alot and other places online, and there are usually very few if any for sale like this. Here are all the details. I have many more pics I can send if you'd like. You can use the ebay system or my email address below. Thanks. TUDDY5@MSN.COM BODY The toyota needs full restoration but it is very sound. There is NO exterior rust or anything close to rust. U was told this body may be galvanized. I don't know about that, but I do know that the exterior is rust free. The body is very straight with the exception of a ding in each rear fender, bent tailgate, and bent hood. Reproduction hoods are probably readily available and the same as an fj40. The doors, fenders, quarters, roof, frame, etc. etc. are nice. Sills, rockers, jams are nice. Dash is uncut. The seats look original. The cargo area and wheelhouses are in nice shape. Tailgate and rear jam have no rust. Tailgate is bent, but does open/close. Other doors open/close and latch. Front floorpans has rust in front of and behind the seat. Front clip, firewall, header, and frame are rust free. Frame VIN matches the vin tag. Passenger side rear side window is included but not in it. It is in good shape and will be packaged before the toyota is shipped. Transmission cover is off, but is included and uncut. Originally a column shift which is still in it, but now has a floor shifter. Overall, a very nice body for restoration but does need the floorpan work. They probably sell re-production pieces but a bodyman could fab it easily anyways. MECHANICAL The toyota has what I'm sure is the original six cylinder engine. Everything mechanical appears original. If it matters to you, I can check the numbers on it. I worked on getting this running but I believe it needs carb work and/or ignition work. It turns over and I had it firing, but never got it started. I needed it out of my shop so I stopped working on it and never got back to it. I can't say for sure if the motor will be usable or not, or need rebuilt. Transmission is most likely the original, but now has a floor shifter. Original cover is included. The vehicle steers and tires hold air. I do not believe the brakes work. Driveline that is pictured laying in the back is not for this vehicle. INTERIOR The interior appears all original and needs full restoration. Seats appear original. Dash is uncut and gauges all look original. THIS VEHICLE IS USED, OLD, AND SOLD AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY. IT NEED RESTORATION AND DOESN'T RUN. |

2017 Toyota 86 Drivers' Notes | Fun, even with an automatic
Fri, Aug 25 2017The Toyota 86 is a car that enthusiasts begged Toyota to build for decades. It's small, lightweight and rear-wheel drive. Thanks to a partnership with Subaru that resulted in the BRZ, this stylish coupe hit the streets in 2012. In the U.S., the car was originally known as the Scion FR-S but was rebadged as a Toyota after Scion was axed last year. Along with a new name, the 86 received updated styling both inside and out as well as a revised suspension and a slight bump in power, at least for the manual models. This Hot Lava-colored car doesn't feature Toyota's slick six-speed manual. Instead it rocks a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters. While some enthusiasts may look down at that, automatics make up more than half of 86 sales. Still, the bones are there, and some people don't think the automatic is all that bad. Either way, we can't encourage enough people to buy these cars, as we want Toyota and Subaru to keep building them. Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder: When I first slid behind the wheel of the 86, I was surprised to see the gear selector and paddles. It's one of those cars that you don't think of as having anything but a manual transmission. Also, in an interior where all the controls and displays are underwhelming, a set of paddle shifters stands out as one of the few tactile objects in the cabin. I ended up using the paddles quite a bit, and found that I actually enjoyed using them, so much so that I'd actually consider opting for the automatic transmission were I to buy an 86. Despite shifts that aren't as razor sharp as they could be, the car's high-revving engine means that it still feels great to use. Riding an engine like this up to its redline, filling the cabin with noise, is the sort of thing that'll give you goosebumps. Being able to keep both hands on the wheel while shifting is a good thing for engagement in this car, based on my time with it. Plus, when I got stuck in traffic, I didn't have to wear out my left leg. The other brilliant thing about the Toyota 86 is its sense of balance. I loved the way it communicated its load distribution when cornering, whether on or off the throttle or brake. The fact that the nose of this car snaps right to where you want it when you start dialing in steering angle is satisfying. And its low stance and good view out the windshield make it really easy to place on the road.
Toyota prices TRD Pro Tacoma, 4Runner
Fri, 01 Aug 2014Toyota is finally all set to drop more details about the upcoming off-road ready TRD Pro Series models of the 4Runner, Tacoma and Tundra after first revealing them in February. These trucks and SUV might not get the big engine and other mods that desert-stormers like the Ford F-150 Raptor have, but they are still a nice step up over the stock versions. All of the TRD Pro vehicles come as 4x4 models with Bilstein shocks with remote reservoirs in the rear, TRD front springs, skid plates, black wheels, retro-inspired "TOYOTA" badging and TRD-branded floor mats and shift knobs on the inside. They're available in three colors: Inferno, Attitude Black Metallic and Super White.
The Tacoma hits the market first in early August with prices starting at $35,525, plus $885 for delivery, processing, and handling, for an Access Cab V6 with a six-speed manual. Opting for a five-speed automatic brings things up to $37,390 after the destination fee. A Double Cab with a manual goes for $37,320, or $38,300 for the automatic, after the delivery charges. The 4Runner follows in September with just a single trim priced at $41,110 - $41,995 after the charge - for the V6 and five-speed auto.
Toyota is holding off on revealing more about the Tundra for now. It's coming in the fall, but the company isn't announcing prices yet. We don't have to wait long, though. "Within the next month we'll reveal that," said Toyota spokesperson Sam Butto to Autoblog about the TRD Pro Tundra's price.
Weekly Recap: Toyota wants cars to be your 'close friends' around 2020
Sat, Oct 10 2015Toyota confirmed plans this week to launch autonomous technology in its production cars around 2020. The automaker's version is called Highway Teammate, and it's one element of a broader mobility strategy that includes vehicles communicating with each other and the grid. "Toyota believes that interactions between drivers and cars should mirror those between close friends who share a common purpose, sometimes watching over each other and sometimes helping each other out," the company said in a statement. That sounds utopian, and perhaps a bit cheesy, but it's an acknowledgment that autonomous driving requires more than technology developed in a vacuum. Toyota is looking at its research in a broader context, and dubs its overall strategy the Mobility Teammate Concept. Highway Teammate is the first step. Its test vehicle is a modified Lexus GS, which uses road-mapping data and external sensors to merge or exit highways, change lanes, and maintain safe distances during driving. It's operated on the Shuto Expressway in Tokyo. Toyota has been working on autonomous tech since the 1990s, with the goal of providing mobility for older people and the disabled, as well as lowering the frequency of traffic accidents. Toyota's push comes as an early adopter, Nissan, is hedging on its own deadline to implement the autonomous tech by 2020 due to a lack of firm laws governing self-driving cars around the world. Conversely, Volvo took the landmark step of being the first automaker to accept liability for when its cars will operate in autonomous mode, and urged the US government to set federal guidelines to regulate the technology. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 BMW M4 GTS: Your water-injected, turbo-boosted demon BMW is unleashing its most powerful M4 ever, a 493-horsepower special edition that's road legal yet bred for the track. The company is making 700 copies for sale around the world, and 300 of them will come to the United States. The twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder revs to 7,600 rpm and uses a water-injection technology to cool the intake air and lower the compression temperature. BMW says this allows it to wring more power out of the inline six. The car also uses carbon-fiber reinforced plastic for the roof, hood, engine compartment strut brace, drive shaft, and rear spoiler to reduce weight. The M4 features BMW's organic light-emitting diode taillights, which are said to be an industry first.
