1967 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER FJ45LV

This Land Cruiser is a true barn find survivor. 1967 was the very last year for Toyota to keep these in production until they were replaced by the FJ55.
The "L" Stands for Left Hand Drive and the "V" stands for Van.
There were only an estimated 500-600 of these important into the United States from Japan, it's unknown how many of these are still alive today.

Mileage is extremely low at 90,210.

These were the changes made in 1967 before they went out of production:

- The basics: 1 1/2 ” brow 
- 1 1/2 ” brow above windshield
- Corner mounted sun visors
- Improved drainage for cowl vent (late 1967) 
- Move VIN to passenger fender
- New weather stripping w/ plastic (steel reinforced) bead
- Improved venting for gas tank (late 1967) 

WHY ARE WE SELLING IT?

It's never easy is it? Due to health complications and the cost of medical bills the owner is forced with the decision to sell one of his most prized possessions.
Knowing that we know Land Cruisers he consulted with us to make sure that it gets in the right hands at the right price as efficiently as possible. He knows these
things go for upwards of $40k and up but there is little time to clean her up and sell her let alone just drive her around time to enjoy.  It's truly his loss and your gain.
This Land Cruiser is a perfect candidate for someone who wants to do a full restoration or just simply wants to driver her around.

DRIVETRAIN:
She has the factory built 3.9L Inline 6. Producing roughly 125HP, she wasn't a power house but this was plenty sufficient in 1967 and had enough torque to take on
the heaviest trails.  She runs like a well oiled machine and doesn't miss a bit sitting at the light.  I would drive this truck another million miles with this engine.

The transmission is manual 3 speed gear box 

DRIVABILITY:

Anywhere!  I would jump in this thing right now and drive her to Cali for a surf trip! for a 40 plus year old vehicle she drives and runs amazing.  She purrs like a kitten and drives down the road straight.  The clutch is firm and so easy to use even a teenager could learn how to drive it. Every gear slides in perfectly and as it should without grinding.  

The suspension has been replaced with a 2" lift from Old Man Emu.  This kit has been the staple for lifting Land Cruisers for many years and is highly respected among
the Land Cruiser community.  She rides better than factory and is more than capable of taking her to some light trails for a light off-roading. 

Brakes do need some pumping every once in a while to keep up the pressure.

BODY EXTERIOR:

There were many rust concerns when these vehicles were first introduced and Toyota improved their drainage system 1967 to help in preventing any of those issues
from developing. Fortunately this 45LV is a fighter! Only a few small rust pockets and some surface rust found their way onto this truck and everything is completely
repairable if needed. The floor boards are in great shape, the drip rails are in great shape and many of the areas where rust should be is non-existent.

At one point in this trucks life it was painted the two tone Orange and White, though these trucks came from the factory two toned we don't know at this time
whether or not that was the factory color or not.  The paint job appears to be over a decade old and could even pass for original to an untrained eye.

INTERIOR:

The interior is like a time capsule, untouched it's entire life.  The door panels are tattered and the the steering wheel is smooth from the hands of it's owners. It's
dusty and needs a quick swipe of a rag to clean her up.  She has a couple tears in the seats and the headliner is sagging a bit but aside from that it's in great shape
for the shape she's in! Just a few hours cleaning things up and your spouse might ask to go for a ride!

From the factory these truck came with a factory Air Conditioning unit under the dash and believe it or not she still blows cold!  We've seen a lot of Land Cruisers and a 
working, operational A/C is even more rare!

OOOPS! I made a mistake and stated that the A/C was factory and it is in fact not factory.  It is in fact an aftermarket unit, sorry for the misinformation.

10 automakers sued over keyless ignitions

Thu, Aug 27 2015

Keyless ignition has rapidly proliferated throughout the auto industry to become a fairly normal feature on new cars. It's supposed to offer the convenience of keeping the fob in your pocket and just pressing a button to drive away. However, ten major automakers are now being sued in US District Court over claims that the system is dangerous, Reuters reports. The suit alleges that people are forgetting to shut off the engine, and the lack of an idle timer is the cause for 13 deaths by carbon monoxide poisoning and multiple injuries. The suit currently includes 28 plaintiffs, according to Reuters, but the lawyers are asking for class-action status to potentially add many more. The case goes after a major swath of the industry, including BMW, Daimler, FCA, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, Toyota, and Volkswagen, plus their related brands like Acura, Infiniti, Mini, and Lexus. In all, over five million vehicles are affected. The assertion here is that people walk away from their vehicle without shutting it off because they believe the engine shuts off automatically. If parked in a garage, carbon monoxide can build up, leading to poisoning. The lawyers claim automakers know this is a problem and also cite 27 complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration about the issue, according to Reuters. The plaintiffs are asking for an automatic shut-off and damages from the companies. These concerns have come up before, though. Toyota previously faced a lawsuit over a carbon monoxide death after a woman accidentally left her Lexus running. Also earlier this year, GM recalled 64,186 examples of the 2011-2013 Chevrolet Volt because owners weren't shutting them off. The problem resulted in two injuries, and the company released a software update to limit the idling time.

Toyota teases 2016 RAV4 Hybrid for New York Auto Show

Thu, Mar 26 2015

Toyota is being extremely enigmatic with its tease for the newly announced RAV4 Hybrid. The Japanese automaker merely has a photo of the model's rear end with a visible hybrid badge on it. The only additional into tells us to look forward to the CUV's debut in just a few days at the New York Auto Show on April 2. Thankfully, Toyota's teaser shot does give away a few more details about this new version of the RAV4. The LED taillights on display aren't the regular ones that wrap around the back of the popular crossover. In the current design, the white portion is placed near the middle of the hatch, and there's amber at the corner. Here, the indicator is clear and two strips of lights run towards the center. The automaker has made its plan clear to sell even more crossovers in the near future, and the RAV4 has already been a strong mover for Toyota. The company shifted 267,698 of them in 2014, a year-over-year jump of 22.7 percent. Through February 2015, it has sold 41,767 examples of the CUV, a 25.3-percent improvement over the same period last year. Still, the decision to launch a hybrid version of the RAV4 now is a bit surprising. The US market for the green segment was soft last year, and it hasn't really turned around yet. Although, rumors of Toyota launching a greener variant of its popular CUV have been around for years. At that time, the company said it would monitor market demand, and maybe the people have spoken.
