For sale is my 1969 FJ40 Landcruiser.  I hate to see it parked on the side of the house, when I know someone else can enjoy it.  I start it a couple times a year to get the fluids moving, and that is about it.  When rebuilt (probably 10 years ago) the frame and body were sandblasted, epoxy primed, and painted.  The suspension is a simple spring over conversion which equates to about six inches of lift with a shackle reversal, and the FJ currently has 35 x 12.5 x 15’s.  The tread has almost 100% remaining, which goes to show how much it has not been driven.  The motor is a rebuilt (professionally) small block 350 with Fuelie heads, and under 1000 miles.  New headers and radiator round out the motor. The speedo cable is not hooked up, but I probably drove it less than 3 months after it was built.  After that, I moved to another state, and it has literally been parked ever since. The drive train consists of a SM420 (Chevy) 4-speed transmission with the stock FJ transfer case (also rebuilt), all mounted to a Center Force clutch.  The transfer case was converted to manual linkage removing the vacuum lines from the previous motor. The front end has a disc brake conversion, welded differential, and power steering. The interior of the FJ has a full cage and has been rhino lined.  Additionally there are bucket seats, a soft top and a bikini top.  Mounted on the front is a one off bumper, and a Warn 8000 pound winch.  The cable is bound up, so it will need to be cut and replaced.  Extras include a spare fuel tank in the rear, KC lights, and Auto Meter gauges (the water temp and volt meter need adjustment, or replacement).  I have a warn winch kit, and a cover for the cruiser as well.  The cover has a few tears, but I will include…at least it can be covered well if you choose to ship.  The body is pretty straight as you can see in the pics, but it does have the standard “FJ Rot” in the rear.  The FJ is ready to go, or could be a good start for a project, or additional modifying.  I tried to get as many pics as I could to show each angle.  I can try to get more if needed. 

I have described the FJ as best as I can.  Remember, it is a 1969.  I have been asked so many questions in the past when I posted locally.  Can it be a daily driver?  Sure….if you don’t mind no doors, heat, A/C, music, or getting 8 miles to the gallon.  Is it titled?  It is, and I have it.  How does it ride?  Well…it actually rides pretty good considering the spring over.   Drive it day one, or play with it a little and make it better.  It is pretty solid, so you should be happy.

Buyer is responsible for shipping; that includes pick up, and shipping fees.  I can drive it to the nearest shopping center or Home Depot parking lot for pick up if shipping.  I live close to a few areas.  I do require a non-refundable 10% deposit if purchased.   Email if you have questions which were not answered.

Toyota TRD Pro lineup coming next week

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

A mysterious Toyota commercial recently popped up on YouTube teasing a new TRD Pro lineup for the Tundra, Tacoma and 4Runner, and now we're getting our first official word straight from the automaker on the matter. Courtesy of its Facebook page, Toyota is promising that the TRD Pro models will be introduced on February 6th, ready to "conquer the great outdoors."
This date just so happens to mark the first day of the always-truck-friendly Chicago Auto Show, so while Toyota isn't saying as much, we're almost certain the trucks will show up next week in the Windy City. It's not clear what sort of upgrades TRD Pro brings, but it definitely includes black wheels and a tweaked front end featuring a thick, single-bar grille and bold lettering in place of the stylized Toyota logo (shown above on the Tundra).
Scroll down to see the video, and head over to Toyota's Facebook page to see a teaser image of the 4Runner TRD Pro.

BMW-Toyota sports car heading towards Tokyo debut

Mon, 20 May 2013

Earlier this year, BMW and Toyota confirmed a four-part joint venture mostly focusing on increasing improving vehicle efficiency using fuel cells, lightweight materials and better battery technology. Also tucked into the announcement was a "feasibility study" for a shared platform to underpin a future midsize "sports vehicle."
In terms of the latter, it seems that things have stepped up from the feasibility stage to the conceptual stage, as Motor Trend reports we could see a pair of new sports car concepts debut later this year in at the Tokyo Motor Show. There isn't much information about the new program, but the article suggests the sports cars could be all-wheel drive hybrids, with electric motors powering the front wheels and a gas engine powering the rear wheels. While a partnership between Toyota and BMW might not lend itself to a catchy portmanteau like "Toyobaru," here's hoping it will bear fruit that is as exciting as the ones produced by the Toyota/Subaru tie up.

Why Toyota Camry's Korea Car of the Year win is a big-time upset

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

The 2013 Toyota Camry is officially the car of the year in Korea. The country's motoring press graced the Japanese sedan with the honor for the first time, officially marking a shift in prevailing Korean attitudes toward Japan and its products. According to industry analysts, buyers in the country are no longer simply choosing their purchases based on whether or not they're made in South Korea, but rather based on quality and personal choice. That's a big jump from a few years ago, when buyers viewed their purchases through a patriotic lens.
The Camry managed to edge out a total of 44 other cars, including hardware from both Hyundai and Kia, to become the first foreign vehicle to take home the Korea Automobile Journalist Association's Car of the Year award. As The Detroit News points out, just 10 years ago, domestic manufacturers held some 99 percent of the Korean car market. But a change in trade regulations has opened up the country considerably, and buyers now have access to a wide range of products from around the globe. As a result, Hyundai and Kia have countered by cutting prices in an attempt to keep their grip on the market.
