I am selling my 1970 Toyota fj40. Has a rebuilt chevy small block 400 motor. Starts up every time. Leave for 6 months and come back and she starts right up. I have owned it for 4 years and have never had a problem with it. Has a 5" lift with new 35" tires and 18"wheels. Magna flow dual exhaust. Bed liner throughout the cabin that looks perfect and brand new. Roll cage from the front of the Fj to the back tires wheel wells. Fenders are bolted into the roll bar. Interior is a 9 out of a 10. not sure what i have to do to make it a 10 out of 10, just being modest. The canopy is in great shape. Its painted in a flat black and in the interior ceiling it is sprayed in white rhino lining. No keys to start this baby. All race car start with switches and a hidden kill switch. 3 speed Automatic. Aluminum half doors that nobody has. Eye catching car. Since i have owned it and painted it, it has never seen any off road. If you are looking for an off roader this car is ready to go, might be a little to nice to beat up though. But if you want to make it a show car its pretty close. I purchased the fj in oregon and had it shipped down to Az. Previous owner built the fj to be a off roader but my intentions were to get it to perfect and have it be a daily driver and look flawless. was well on my way but decided to buy another project (67 mustang fastback) and all my funds went towards the stang. Reason for selling is that i would like make the mustang my sole focus so i can get it to where i want it to be. The fj has been very reliable for me. Put around 2000 miles on it 4 years. Didnt drive it too much. But when i did drive the fj it was great. Motor and exhaust sound beefy and mean. I drove it all over the valley in phoenix az. Drove great on the highway, just cruised at 55 to 60. All and all this is a great looking Fj that has a straight as can be body in exception of one tiny dent on the front drivers side fender

flaws

It is a 1970 vehicle and it was in oregon so there is minor surface rust underneath the cabin. very minor compared to what you could expect. Stuck my head under there and sanded some spots and it came off very easily. The turn signal switch is a little quirky, it works but you have to hold it a certain way. Back right tail light works when you push your breaks but not when the car is just on with lights on. Minor cracks in paint in a couple places. Fenders will need to be re painted, due to some cracks in the paint from storage. Rarely had the fenders on, i liked the way it looked without them. looks like some of the chrome on the headers is coming off. All of these flaws are very minor, like it said earlier if u want a show car this is very close to being what you need. If you have any questions just give me a call at 480-621-0888 or email through ebay. I am starting the Auction at $10,000 and no reserve from there. Have fun my name is Aaron Good Luck

Toyota GT86 gets TRD treatment in UK

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

As dearly as we love the Toyota GT86 / Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ franchise, we readily admit we wouldn't look sideways at a model with a bit more firepower. And while that's not quite on the table yet, Toyota has been busy amping up the visual firepower of its rear-drive coupe with a whole host of TRD parts. To this point, that's been a largely à la carte affair, but the automaker's UK outpost has just announced a special-edition model that allows our British friends to pick up the whole shooting match all in one go.
The Toyota GT86 TRD will only be available in black and white, and just 250 examples are to be built. As you can see from the excellent gallery above, the catalog of look-faster bits include a more aggressive front air dam, side skirts, rear bumper fascia, spoiler and unique 18-inch forged alloys. Additional flourishes include a TRD shift lever and branded radiator cap. The sole concession to actual performance? A "fast-response quad exhaust" that might only improve things audibly - 0-62 mph is apparently unchanged at 7.7 seconds, and the top end is still 140 mph for the manual transmission model. (The auto gets by with 8.4 seconds and 130 mph).
Pricing? Glad you asked. £31,495 for GT 86 TRD manual, £32,995 for the automatic - that's nearly $50,000 US for the tripedalist and just over for the automatic. (Those are heady prices, but bear in mind that UK MSRPs and taxes are generally significantly higher than their US counterparts). If the standard GT86 is more your speed, it still rings up at a more affordable £24,995 - roughly $39,500 - leaving plenty of budget for actual performance parts. No word yet on North American availability of a special TRD model, but we've got a call in...

NHTSA investigating 561k Toyota Prius hybrids for possible steering shaft defect

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration will investigate some 561,000 Toyota Prius models for potentially defective steering shafts. The affected hybrid models are from the 2004-2009 model years. The story indicates that NHTSA is weighing whether or not to grant a defect petition, which claims that Toyota incorrectly assembled the hatchback's steering linkage.
As of this writing, there is no recall. However, a recall based on the Prius steering shaft would be the third related to steering issues for the model since 2006. Seven years ago, Toyota recalled 170K Prius models for potential cracking of the intermediate shafts, and in November of 2012, the automaker recalled 670K units to replace the steering shaft extension assembly.
We'll be monitoring NHTSA's signals to see if this investigation turns into a full-fledged recall. For now, stay tuned.
