1974 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser 4 Speed Transmission & Transfer Case 327 V8 from a 1969 Impala 33" new tires, Ultra rims Drag Race Your Friends And Then Run Them Over! I have never had any trouble getting the car to run or start even on cold winter days. This is still the most reliable car I have ever owned. This FJ40 is untouched and all original, minus the V8 conversion. The V8 conversion was done professionally and is very clean. The smaller radiator also helps heat the heaters up much more quickly than the old straight 6. The vehicle has spent its entire life here in Eastern Idaho, and I know both of the previous owners. They kept everything on this vehicle, including the original shifting knobs, original engine mounts, front lockers, jack, winch, etc.. The list just goes on and on. I have taken photos of everything that comes with this vehicle. The winch was disassembled by the previous owner and is in pieces. I am not sure that it works. This rig is really solid and is in excellent condition. The engine, transmission, transfer case, lights, heaters and all of the switches work. This FJ40 was taken care of and received regular oil changes and maintenance. The vehicle itself is in excellent condition and doesn't have much rust for a Cruiser. The only real rust is on the driver's side fender and along the back by the rear barn doors. This would be an easy fix or you could just roll with it. This FJ40 is stock as they come and is all original, minus the V8 conversion. Here is a list of the original OEM parts on this vehicle: The 4 speed transmission and transfer case are all stock. The entire body, frame, axles, etc. are stock with no aftermarket parts. The interior is all original including all of the switches, lights, and all four seats The tire carrier, hubs, lockers, winch, jack, hub caps, glove box light, shifter knobs are all OEM and original to the vehicle. The doors and hatch are all original and in excellent condition. The front and back doors are entirely rust free, and are some of the most beautiful FJ40 doors I have ever seen. The paint on this vehicle is also original. The previous owners would shoot a little primer on the rig when it got a chip in the paint to keep it from rusting. It definitely worked, and you will be stunned by how clean this rig is. You can see that most of this vehicle is stock and in great condition. I personally really like the 1974 FJ40 because it was the last year of the hatch, but it also was the first year of the 4 speed transmission. I know from past experiences that those ambulance doors are really dangerous for small kids, and fingers in general, if you don't secure them. The hatch never fails as long as you have it lifted high enough to get under it without smacking your dome. This one will fit the bill if you are 6 foot or shorter. This was also the last year of the older style doors which, in my opinion are, the coolest of the FJ40 doors--that at least goes for the retro steel interior. This FJ40 would be an ideal restore project, daily driver, or hunting rig. It does have a little rust along the rear, but everything else looks amazing. This Cruiser has not been modified at all and is all original minus the V8 conversion. The front seats look awesome and were fully restored a few years ago. The driver's side seat will need a little patch job, but is solid. The seats are original to the vehicle. The 327 V8 in itself is a valuable engine, and this one is original and unmodified. Running (as it is) it is worth $2,500 or more on its own. I have a video on Youtube that shows the car running, shifting, driving, and a complete walkthrough. You need to view this video to appreciate the power and beauty of this FJ40. I can also store the vehicle for 30 days once payment is made if you need time to arrange shipment. You will need to pay me $100.00 a month to store it any longer than that. Payment must be made within one week of auction ending. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day:) |

Despite slow sales, no new Scion models in near-term pipeline [w/poll]
Mon, 09 Sep 2013According to a top Toyota executive, the Japanese automaker will not be introducing any fresh Scion models in the near future, Reuters reports. As of August, Scion sales for this year were down 1.6 percent from 2012 and accounted for only 0.3 percent of Toyota's overall US sales. And last month, Toyota Motor Sales USA Senior Vice President Bob Carter informed the 1,000 dealers who carry Scion that they can drop the brand without penalty.
However, never fear - Carter has assured that, while nothing new is coming for at least six months, the company is still very committed to the quirky Scion brand. Toyota launched Scion, which targets the youth market, in 2003, and sales peaked in 2006. The brand currently has five models, with the 2013 best-sellers being the FR-S sports coupe followed by the tC sedan and xB hatchback.
What do you think about Toyota's decision to hold off on introducing new or refreshed Scion models? Are they heading in the right direction, or does this spell doom for the funky Gen Y brand?
Airbag recall widens to include BMW, Chrysler, Ford and Toyota
Mon, 23 Jun 2014The recall of faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata has exploded today to grow to seven automakers. In most cases, only models in certain high-humidity regions were affected because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found in its investigation that moisture played a roll in determining whether there would be a problem. However, some companies opted for national campaigns. The exact number of affected models for these campaigns isn't yet known at this time.
BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall.
Neither Chrysler's filing with NHTSA nor its press release list the specific models affected, but a company spokesperson told Autoblog that at this time it only covers the driver and passenger side inflators for the 2006 Dodge Charger in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands
Cosworth teases upgrades for Subaru BRZ
Mon, 19 May 2014Subaru may or may not produce an STI version of the BRZ. Things seem to go back and forth on the subject. But Subaru Tecnica International isn't the only company with a history of tuning Subies. So does Cosworth, and now the British racing firm appears to be turning its attention to the BRZ and its Toyota- and Scion-badged siblings.
For those unacquainted, Cosworth is more than your average tuning company. It's a racing firm first and foremost, having made F1 engines under its own name as well as Ford's (chief among them the all-conquering DFV 3.0-liter V8 of 1960s and 70s fame), not to mention engines for Indy, rally and even high-performance, road-going versions of the Ford Sierra, Chevy Vega and Mercedes 190E. The list goes on and on, but you get the point.
Now withdrawing from Formula One, Cosworth is focusing its attention on tuning road cars again with the launch of the Cosworth Power Package line, the first of which will focus on the Toyota GT86 (aka Scion FR-S) and Subaru BRZ. We don't know just yet what will be included in the packaged dubbed FA-20, but from the video teaser below, it seems there'll be upgrades to the exhaust, suspension, aero and - if we're lucky - maybe a super- or turbocharger for the 2.0-liter flat-four engine. We'll have to wait and see, but we get the feeling that with Cosworth on the job, it'll be worth the wait. Check out the minute-long video below in the meantime.
