1967 FJ40 Landcruiser 4X4 is not shiny, nor civilized....instead, built to be violent and rugged. Has front and rear locking differentials, 3 speed manual transmission. The engine is the famous aluminum head ZZ4 found in the Jegs catalog. It has the loudest flowmasters available. Transmission and transfer Case are original and recently rebuilt with all new bearings and seal. Transfer Case is still vacuum operated, so is a bit cantankerous engaging 2 to 4 wheel drive, but does work. It still has the original "one pump wonder" drum brakes (with new components) and is not vacuum assist. Needless to say, the phrase "refined stopping features" do not apply. They work fine, for what they are. As outrageous as this truck looks, it actually drives fast and handles well. You can steer with one hand, while cruising on the Interstate, although I don't recommend it. The fold-down tow bar is functional and the optional skull, goes with it. The speedo cable is bad, so the actual miles are not going to be correct.
Overall, being a vintage 1967, it does have rust and patch panels, here and there. It also has some pretty crude Bondo work on one fender and mostly a paint job from spray cans, so the point is: don't expect a cosmetic creampuff....at least you don't have to worry about door-dings at Walmart.
It has a true Skyjacker 4" lift suspension system and does not squeak or rattle. Despite the cosmetics, it actually is a reliable road driver. It is LOUD and CRAZY, so you do attract attention, when you drive it. The clutch is also new, when the gearboxes were rebuilt. The V8 is installed with the Advance Adaptors kit, for this. It is shown with the Bikini top, but will come with several top options, that include a full soft top, with doors, a windcurtain that fits behind the front seats (makes a "half-cab"...my personal favorite) and a set of soft, half-doors. Rear bench seat is removable and all seats do have seat belts. The heater does work, as well and the roll cage is FULL. The video is a low-resolution, walk around...I could not get the HQ version to load, so had to work with it. The tires are 35 x 15's. One is new, the other 3 have seen better days, but are serviceable. I am listing this with no reserve, so high bidder gets it....go at it boys!!

Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.
Toyota i-ROAD leans its way into the city [w/video]
Mon, 04 Mar 2013According to Toyota, the "i-ROAD takes the company closer to its goal of creating the ultimate range of eco cars." As you're surely aware, that range of eco cars includes the enormously successful Prius family, but this new machine is nothing like the hybrid hatchback. And it's not even a car - Toyota calls the i-ROAD a Personal Mobility Vehicle.
Toyota's i-ROAD Concept, which debuts at this week's Geneva Motor Show, is adorned with just three wheels, meaning it's just as much a motorcycle as it is a car, and the driver and passenger sit in tandem style instead of side-by-side. This arrangement allows for a very thin 850mm width, which is about the same as a large motorcycle. Because the cockpit is enclosed, the occupants don't need helmets, nor are they open to the elements outside.
Also like a traditional two-wheeler, the i-ROAD tilts through the turns and when driving on uneven surfaces. Toyota says its computer-controlled Active Lean technology automatically balances the vehicle with no input from the driver.
Toyota may put Mirai hydrogen fuel cell powertrain into a Lexus
Wed, Dec 24 2014Toyota is hoping to define the world of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles with its uniquely styled Mirai sedan in a fashion similar to the way the Prius pops into people's minds when they think of a hybrid. The Japanese automaker believes it can sell about 700 FCEVs worldwide in the first year alone and build rapidly from there to an estimated 3,000 sales in the US by 2017. Of course, not everyone is completely enamored with the Mirai's design. Toyota is rumored to have an alternative in the works to quell some of those naysayers, possibly taking flagship form with a new Lexus LS powered by fuel-cell tech. The LS FCEV could be unveiled by 2017 to sit at the very top of brand's lineup. According to an inside source speaking to the Australian website Motoring, the front end would feature larger air intakes to cool the electrical components. The fuel cell would reportedly be positioned under the front seat, and the hydrogen tanks would be located under and behind the rear seat. Somehow, Motoring claims that all of this might be lighter than the current LS600hL hybrid, to the tune about 440 pounds. The model is also claimed to offer a range of about 239 miles, just a bit shy of the Mirai's roughly 300 miles. Assuming this vehicle actually exists, the cost for buyers of this flagship would almost certainly ring up at more than the LS600hL's $120,440 base price. Autoblog has reached out to Toyota for any further info about this rumor, one way or the other. If we hear back, we'll update this story with the details.
