1973 Fj55 Toyota Land Cruiser Fj55 V-8 Powered on 2040-cars
Salt Lake City, Utah, United States
|
This 1973 Toyota Land Cruiser (VIN FJ5530025) benefits from a recent, good driver quality restoration including new paint, upgraded seats, disc brakes, power steering, and fitment of a 300 HP, 350 cubic-inch small block Chevy V8 mated to a fresh Toyota 4-speed manual. The truck has clean, solid floors, frame rails and rockers with rust limited to some moderate bubbling found mostly along the drip rails. It’s currently running and driving well and looks great in the factory green/cream color scheme.
It is now available in Salt Lake City, Utah Two tones work very well with these trucks, and both the medium green and cream components of this combo are well chosen. Panels looks solid and straight with good fit, though several paint imperfections can be seen in different places, the worst of which seems to be a half inch nick with rust on the front, outer corner of the driver’s side hood bulge. Matte gray Icon-style wheels are a great choice and wear fresh rubber, the stock front bumper has been replaced with a quality ARB bull bar, and a Reese Class III trailer hitch resides in back. Inside, seats are upgraded modern buckets for increased safety and long distance comfort. A simple Grant three spoke leather steering wheel looks good here, as do door panels with upholstery matched to the seats, and a large, clean cargo area. Underhood, the largely stock 350 makes a nice round 300 HP thanks in part to a large Edelbrock carb, and the engine is tight, leak free and strong running. A red top Optima battery is a nice option, and with the dramatically increased power on offer this FJ55 should be capable of freeway merges with ease. In addition to a fresh Toyota 4-speed, other driveline maintenance includes a fresh transfer case, clutch, and all new driveshafts as of May, 2013. A 40-gallon fuel tank is more than adequate, while the power steering and disc brakes make for substantial driveability improvements on these rigs. Just back from a trip to the local shop for $2,800 worth of upgrades and repairs to insure that the new buyer will have a ride ready rig, here is a list of some of the services performed…
Still trying to figure out why the turn signals are not operating correctly. Looks like the new owner will have something to tinker with to make him happy. Buyer is responsible for pickup or delivery. I will work with you or your agent to help you get your new Classic Cruiser delivered to your home. |

Ford tops GM in US vehicle sales in May, driven by fleets
Thu, Jun 1 2017DETROIT - Ford, bolstered by heavy sales to fleet customers, surpassed General Motors in US new vehicle sales in May, according to figures reported Thursday. Ford said May sales rose 2.2 percent from a year ago to 241,126 units. GM sales dropped 1.3 percent to 237,364. GM said it had been trimming sales of heavily discounted vehicles to car rental companies. Such fleet sales made up about 19 percent of its total sales in May. Ford's fleet sales rose 8.4 percent, representing more than 34 percent of total sales. The industry average is around 20 percent. Analysts had expected mixed results for the industry, with sales likely propped up by heavy discounts. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles said May sales dipped 0.9 percent to 193,040. Toyota's US sales dropped 0.5 percent to 218,248. Nissan said US sales in May rose 3.0 percent, to 137,471. After demand fell in March and April, analysts estimated May sales at just over 1.5 million. The seasonally adjusted annual rate of sales in May was estimated at 16.8 million to 16.9 million vehicles, about the same as April. A year earlier, sales stood at 17.55 million vehicles. Early reports indicated that sales over the three-day Memorial Day weekend were helped by heavy discounts. "While demand for new vehicles is still relatively strong, it's a bit of smoke and mirrors," said Jessica Caldwell, executive director of industry analysis at Edmunds, the car shopping website. Manufacturers and dealers "really pushed the deals over the holiday weekend to prop up their May numbers," she said. "Incentives were up sharply, and it seems automakers are putting more cash on the hood to nudge car shoppers to buy versus lease." General Motors dealers were offering discounts of up to $12,000 on the full-size Chevrolet Silverado pickup, while some dealer discounts on Ford Motor Co's F-series pickups were more than $10,000 on 2017 models and more than $14,000 on leftover 2016 models. The 2017 model year started eight months ago. Reporting by Paul LienertRelated Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Toyota TRD Pro lineup coming next week
Thu, 30 Jan 2014A 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.

Eventually, Bentley intends to launch a seven-seat version, a higher performance Speed model, and more efficient diesel and hybrid variants of its new luxury SUV. Dawn is the new four seater convertible from Rolls-Royce. While the car looks to the past for its name it boasts lots of modern tech including Rolls-Royce's Zed F eight-speed automatic transmission for imperceptible gear changes and a silently operating, six layer, canvas top. The launch of Toyota's latest Prius marks the fourth generation of the popular hybrid. Prius has gone from a niche product to one of the industry's most important vehicles. Toyota hopes its new Prius will redefine the category it helped to pioneer. We're expecting fuel economy to increase by 10 percent and this is the most tech laden Prius ever.
