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. |

Mystery shoppers love Infiniti, hate Tesla
Tue, Jul 12 2016Infiniti, followed by Lexus tied with Mercedes-Benz took the top two spots for best sales experience according to mystery shoppers from the latest Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, while EV manufacturer Tesla recorded the lowest overall score. Not surprisingly, premium brands dominated the top ranks. Including the three already mentioned, luxury brands occupied seven of the top ten spots and included Audi, BMW, Porsche, and the only American brand to crack the upper echelon, Cadillac. Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan rounded out the first ten positions. The news for domestic automakers isn't good. Aside from Caddy, the only other star-spangled automaker to score above the industry average is Chrysler. The rest of FCA, most of GM, and all of Ford fell below the line. But Pied Piper's mystery shoppers handed Tesla the biggest walloping – the company is ten full points below the next lowest brand, Volvo, and its score of 86 is 17 below the average of 103. It's baffling, considering the company's touted direct-sales model. "Tesla leaves me scratching my head," Fred O'Hagan, Pied Piper's president and CEO, told Wards Auto. "They own all of their stores, so you would think each one would be doing the same thing. But they're not. Tesla is consistent in its inconsistencies." O'Hagan added that there's a "huge variation" in Tesla's store-to-store effectiveness, and that in some cases, shoppers found showroom workers that acted more like "museum curators," Wards Auto reports. It might be popular to call Tesla the Apple of the car world, but based on Pied Piper's work, the brand has a long way to go to emulate the uniform shopping experience of an Apple Store. The news might be bad for Tesla, but even for the brands that scored below average, there's cause for celebration. Only Tesla and Mini lost points in this year's rankings, and only Mercedes and Lincoln held steady. Every other brand, including Infiniti, which topped the index for the first time, gained at least one point. The biggest improvements belong to Porsche, Land Rover, and Mitsubishi, which all jumped five points. Pied Piper's annual Prospect Satisfaction Index uses mystery shoppers – over 6,100 this year – from across the country to assess dealers and generate rankings from over 50 individual factors.

Toyota releases teaser for Kaley Cuoco Super Bowl ad
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Toyota has released a 35-second teaser video for its upcoming Super Bowl spot staring Kaley Cuoco, the actress best known for her role as object-of-nerd-affection Penny on The Big Bang Theory. The real star of the ad, however, is its soundtrack, the 1995 hit "I Wish" by rapper Skee-Lo that will have your mind cashing nostalgia checks the moment it hits your ears.
We still don't know much about the content, plot or story of this Super Bowl commercial, though we can say that its object of promotion is likely the new RAV4 we see Ms. Cuoco driving in this teaser. The rest of the time she's walking the street in a purple getup granting wishes like Robin Williams on a Disney sound stage. And then the Easter Bunny and a chihuahua enter the picture and we get lost. Clint Eastwood under a bridge this is not.
But hey, Super Bowl ads cost millions and millions of dollars to produce and air, so we trust that Toyota spent its money wisely and will have us ROFLing on game day. Until then, scroll down and witness for yourself the debut of Kaley Cuoco as a Toyota spokeswoman.
Toyota recalls 4,000 Tacoma pickups over valve springs
Thu, 07 Nov 2013When you build as many cars and trucks as Toyota does, you're bound to run into the occasional recall. In the past month alone, the Japanese auto giant has recalled over 800,000 Camry, Avalon and Venza models over problems with the air-conditioning units, and 10,000 more before that over windshield wiper issues. Now Toyota has issued another recall notice, but this time for far fewer vehicles.
The recall revolves around the engine valve springs in the 2013 and 2014 Tacoma, specifically those fitted with the standard 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine and not the optional 4.0-liter V6. The issue is that the valve springs are prone to cracking and breaking over time, and results from improper maintenance of the manufacturing equipment used by one of the two suppliers that outfit Toyota with the components in question.
All told, some 4,000 vehicles will be subject to the voluntary recall, the owners of which will receive notice by mail. If you think that could be you and want to get a jump on the problem, you can read the announcement below and call Toyota yourself.
