1966 Toyota Landcruiser Factory Soft Top Fj40 Ground Up Restored - None Better! on 2040-cars
West Linn, Oregon, United States
|
Here’s an opportunity to own an
incredible Concours Winning Factory Soft Top FJ40 Landcruiser. This FJ40
received a 3-year complete bare metal nut and bolt restoration to the highest
standard. The restoration was completed in 2013. It has been driven 160 miles
since being finished.
Originally sold at Hil Probert Motors in Lakespur , California (see inner glove box decal), and still wearing its original California black plates to this day. This 1966 cruiser started out as a dry and complete California example, never hit, original Volcanic Beige paint, a true cream puff and the best possible base car you could ever hope to find for a full blown nut and bolt restoration. The restoration was a team effort involving some highly respected Landcruiser experts based out of the Pacific Northwest. Genesis 4 wheel drive, Metric TLC, and Landcruiser Northwest. I have a 3 ring binder full of all documentation pertaining to the restoration. Every component is restored, rebuilt, detailed, plated, accurately reproduced, etc. Many New Old Stock parts were used during the build. It has correct coral red upholstery, proper red seat belts, khaki green soft top and soft doors, proper canvas safety straps for the door openings, correct decals. I also have a rebuilt Jack with handles, and a restored hand crank start handle that are included. Drivetrain is a freshly rebuilt 2F with a 4 speed; it was built to be a great driver. I’m a firm believer in pictures being worth a thousand words. Please see my gallery for as found, under construction, and finished photos. https://picasaweb.google.com/dustin.howell/1966FSTCruiserEbay?authkey=Gv1sRgCKqI3M3EppXSUg This beauty was debuted at the 2013 Forest Grove Concours D Elegance where it won its class and was runner up for best in show post-war. Not an easy task by any means. If you’re just starting your search for an investment grade FJ, I’d recommend taking a few minutes to browse this article recently published by Hemmings Motor News, particularly Item #3: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2014/01/02/five-car-hobby-predictions-for-the-coming-year/ The reason for selling is I’m making a move on a once in a lifetime muscle car that is available. Has a clean CA title. Vehicle is located in West Linn, Oregon. I’m happy to assist in shipping arrangements. I can easily be reached through eBay, and I check my email daily. Thank you for looking. |

2014 Toyota Corolla gets marginal IIHS small overlap crash test score [w/video]
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Toyota may have performed some major surgery on the 2014 Corolla, but that hasn't helped the Japanese automaker overcome tough new crash test procedures. The Corolla, Toyota's bread-and-butter compact sedan, managed only a Marginal score on the new small overlap crash test, which was just added last year.
Despite the low score, the Corolla performed well in the moderate overlap front, side, rollover and rear testing, which was enough to score it a 2013 Top Safety Pick. In testing in August, six of the Corolla's competitors earned the Top Safety Pick + award, for good or acceptable scores across the board.
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the Corolla's "Marginal" score was down to an "intruding structure," that could cause injuries to the lower left leg. There was also concern that in a collision, the driver's head would move after hitting the air bag, and collide with the A-pillar or dash.
Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.
