Condition and Assessment:

Body/Frame: There is some rust, but no pitting or structural issues. The Body is in good shape. There is one cancer spot (pictured) on the driver’s side rear below the seal. Otherwise the body is in good shape. Paint is in decent shape, Capri Blue (color code T310)

Electrical: windshield wiper motor is shot. (Additional wiper motor and housing included). Headlights and turn signals work. Factory horn is not working and an aftermarket one is installed with a button on the dash. Speedometer works but needs to be cleaned. (It bounces above 50 mph) Refurbished Intake and new Carb installed. Original Carb included.

Interior/doors: New Soft Top and new Soft Top Bows primed in grey from Real Steel. Trollhole Cruisers is a full time Land Cruiser restoration company who has begun manufacturing soft tops for the older Land Cruisers that look like the old factory soft tops did. It is a brand new high quality top in canvas. The top is on the truck in some pictures but is NOT fully installed, all hardware to complete install IS included. SOR Seat covers over the original front seats. They need to be redone. The rear has a very nice bench seat. All seats have 4 point crow harness systems.

Doors need to be redone so glass is secure. I am including all weather stripping and felt for them. Glass is in good shape. Doors have some rust holes on the bottom. The rear half “barn doors” and rear bumper have been bent and are not fully flush with the rear seal but function and are structurally sound. A 1974 factory roll bar is included all though not original to this year or truck.

 

Engine/Drivetrain: The 1F runs strong and has been converted from a 3 on the tree to a floor shifter. The rear main seal needs to be replaced so the Cruiser does “mark its territory” with a nickel sized oil stain after being driven for 30 minutes. All cylinders have good compression.
_________________________________________________________________________
This Land Cruiser would be good for a full restoration, a weekend driver, or for a trail truck. Mechanically it has had a lot of love and new parts. A new top, new badging and decent paint make it a beautiful truck and with more work it will only increase in value.

 

Truck has a clear Mississippi Title. It is located in Madison, MS and is 30 minutes from the Jackson Airport. I will assist with shipping at buyers expense.

Seller reserves right to end auction early. All sales are final with vehicle being sold where is, as is. The truck and clear title remain with seller until complete payment is received!

 

Contact and Questions:

Please ask any questions here on ebay as others will probably have the same questions. Once the auction is over I will be available via phone to work with the buyer on shipping if needed.

Toyota mini doc chronicles Tundra towing Space Shuttle Endeavor

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Toyota has worked up a quick video detailing the brand's involvement in the transportation of the Space Shuttle Endeavour last year. As you may recollect, the California Science Center ran into a hitch when it came to moving Endeavour from LAX to its new home. While most of the route would be covered by a robotically controlled transporter, one portion of the route directed the shuttle over an interstate. Unfortunately, the bridge across wasn't designed to stand up to the weight of the shuttle and its motorized sled.
The Science Center would have to remove Endeavour from its transporter and place it on a lighter, non-motorized sled. That's where longtime Science Center sponsor Toyota came in. As it turns out, the automaker had to prove to the California Science Center that a Tundra could actually tow the massive shuttle, so engineers put on a little demonstration with a stock truck pulling the equivalent weight over flat ground for the same distance. Once the Science Center was satisfied that the Tundra could pull it off, the move was green lit and the rest is history. Check out the short documentary below for yourself.

Fewest vehicles ever found eligible for Most American survey

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Once again, the most American car on the market is from an American brand. The Ford F-150 retained its number one spot in Cars.com's annual survey of the most American vehicles, trumping the Toyota Camry, which remains at number two.
Ford taking the top spot is small consolation, though, as the Detroit Three aren't too well represented here. General Motors scored a win at number seven, with the Chevrolet Corvette, while Chrysler squeaked in at number ten, with the Dodge Viper. Outside of those three vehicles, Toyota and Honda dominate the top ten.
What's most remarkable, though, is that there were so few cars available for this year's list.

White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.
