 69 fj40 with Arizona roots still has an Army  base sticker 15 miles from Mexico on the windshield. It belonged to a U.S. Marshall and ended up in the D.C. area where it was traded to my friend I got it from. I haven't seen a more solid FJ ever. You can see every pinch weld and rivet. Motor is a 1973 as well as the heads # v 03 21 CLKorY cant tell. Either with the casting number shows a 73 z28 motor.  Truck shifts stops and goes as it should and has been changed to electronic HEI ignition. 4x4 has been tested and works fine. It has stainless dual exhaust and sounds really nice and mellow. It looks like this truck was ground up restored in the past it has newer painless wiring and its painted underneath and that preserved it. Inner tub has been Linex coated and areas where paint rubs off like door sills,steps, jambs, and where the top meets has been coated as well and painted to match where needed. Outside panels are super straight and nice. The round glass is good as well as the rest of the glass. All hinges and mirror mounts are stainless. There is an original book and tool wrap that was in it as well as a chilton book on FJs and the painless wiring book. There are some new handles for one door and the back hatch as well as some rubber moldings although I don't know where they go. There are no jumper seats in the back just the front buckets which are not original. I was going to get black covers they are grey and comfortable but not nice enough for the truck. Here is all I know bad with the truck which is minimal but I don't want any surprises. The front fog lights aren't working but I haven't really tried to see why. The tires are brand new and only have a hundred miles on them but rims are just painted it could use the original steelies painted to match with caps. This truck is super solid and nice but under hood and underneath need a good freshen up on paint and polish, its a little dirty. The last pic shows a spider crack in the paint where the rubbers are missing from the hood where you tilt it all the way open against the windshield. There is also one scratch that has been touched up with a slightly darker color on top of the right fender about 2 inches or so. The front bumper looks to be slightly bent (as seen in pic of front)but this is the cheapest item on the vehicle, 68 bucks painted pewter on Ebay right now! The windshield has a chip (as seen in sticker pic) that can be fixed reasonably along with a slight scratch where the wiper must have come off in the past. They don't come much nicer for under 30k and with minimal work you can get this one there so bid to win this truck needs a FJ nut to appreciate it. Its not a show piece yet and still needs some little stuff like the turn signals  aren't flashing ect.  But as far as solid and running great ect.,  I cant see it getting much better for the low reserve. This is a quality piece and is not being given away but someone is gonna get the deal of the year on this FJ if they know the value of this piece. Truck has an open clear title and is as is as described Im an enthusiast and not a dealer but I will try to answer all questions best I can and help with loading or delivery if its not too far. Make sure and contact me at the end to show you  are serious. Good luck to all...

Will Toyota lose up to 70% of its workforce in TX relocation?

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

Toyota's decision to move its US headquarters from its longtime home in Torrance, CA, to Plano, TX, was one of the biggest stories in the automotive industry this spring. With several months since the announcement, more details about the plan have leaked out. It seems that pulling up stakes could mean an even larger shakeup in the Toyota workforce than first thought.
According to Automotive News, Toyota intends to hang onto around 50 percent of its workforce in the move to the Lone Star State. However, even that figure might be optimistic. According to an unnamed insider speaking to AN, there is a fear the actual number could be closer to 30 percent. For comparison, Nissan retained about 42 percent of its workers in its move from California to Tennessee.
The actual percentage making the move is a mystery because Toyota is still rewriting its job descriptions under a single set of guidelines. The changes affect benefits, bonuses and the reporting structure, according to Automotive News, and employees' reactions could play a big role in who decides to go. According to an unnamed worker speaking to AN, the wait is hurting morale. Some people are even applying at the nearby Honda headquarters.

Toyota JPN Taxi Concept is a Japanese riff on an English classic

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

As far as beasts of burden go, New York City's new - and much maligned - Nissan NV200 "Taxi of Tomorrow" isn't a bad one. It's space efficient, reasonably economical, and its simple construction should mean it's pretty robust over the long haul, too. But it lacks panache and a sense of occasion - let alone a sense of humor - three things this this Toyota JPN Taxi Concept we found at the Tokyo Motor Show has in spades.
Unfortunately, that's about all the information we have on this cheeky London-taxi-inspired showcar. Toyota hasn't provided much in the way of details, other than to proclaim that the five-seat JPN was "created with Japanese hospitality in mind" and it "aims to enliven city streets." Japan's livery landscape has long been occupied by traditional three-box sedans - models like the Toyota Crown and Nissan Cedric. The JPN Taxi at just over 171 inches would appear to offer both a tighter footprint and added whimsy, both of which are in the automaker's favor; we hear it hopes this concept will one day become the country's own version of America's yellow Crown Vic cab.
Toyota isn't providing powertrain specifications, but we like the airy feeling of the interior (Japanese cabs typically don't have cumbersome partitions between cabbie and passengers), the minimalist driver area with three screens, and the widescreen overhead video system for passengers that bookends the panoramic moonroof. Check it out in our gallery of live shots and let us know what you think in Comments.

Toyota will roll out solid-state battery EVs globally in a couple of years

Thu, Jan 11 2024

GANDHINAGAR, India — Japan's Toyota Motor will in a couple of years globally launch vehicles with solid-state batteries that charge faster and last longer, an executive said on Thursday at an investment summit in India. Solid-state batteries promise to dramatically improve the driving range of electric vehicles (EVs), a key element of a strategic pivot Toyota unveiled in June to make up ground lost to Tesla and Chinese rivals, such as BYD, in the EV race. Last year, Toyota and oil refiner Idemitsu Kosan said they would tie up to develop and mass produce all-solid-state batteries, which they aim to commercialize in 2027 and 2028, followed by full-scale mass production. "We will be rolling out our electric vehicles with solid state batteries in a couple of years from now," said Vikram Gulati, the India head of Toyota Kirloskar Motor. It "will be a vehicle which will be charging in 10 minutes, giving a range of 1,200 kms (750 miles) and life expectancy will be very good". Gulati was speaking at the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit where one focus of the Indian government is attracting more investments to scale up EV manufacturing capacity in the world's third largest auto market. At the start of the summit on Wednesday, Japan's Suzuki Motor said its Indian subsidiary and Toyota partner Maruti Suzuki would export the group's first battery EV to Japan and Europe — marking the first time for Maruti to export to its parent company's home country. Electric models made up around 2% of India's car sales last year, but the government is targeting 30% by 2030 and India's road transport minister said at the summit he sees annual EV sales in India reaching 10 million vehicles by 2030. On Toyota's plans for solid-state batteries in India, Gulati said the carmaker had various sustainable technology options that would differ based on the country, market and customer preferences. "Right now, for India, flex fuel and ethanol can be a no-brainer right away," he added India's trade department has backed lowering taxes on hybrid vehicles to help the transition to cleaner energy sources, following demands by Japanese carmakers, Reuters has reported. Gulati said the Indian government should consider a carbon-based tax structure for cars, which would make it technologically agnostic and more equitable.  Green Lexus Suzuki Toyota Electric
