Up for grabs is this 1974 Toyota Land Cruiser (or Landcruiser) FJ40!  This FJ is in great mechanical shape, and the 2F engine just got a full tune-up, a new fuel filter, and an oil change.  I have been using this FJ as a daily driver, and it starts very easily and cruises on both city streets and at highway speeds easily (up to 65 mph).  It is easily to start, and all gauges function except for the oil pressure gauge (oil pressure has been checked and is in-line with normal operating ranges).   A recently completed compression test shows all cylinders to be +/-10 psi of 150 psi.  In addition to the tune-up, the FJ also has new wheel cylinders and new brakes at all four corners, as well as a new master cylinder. 

This FJ also features four nearly new Nexen 31" tires with plenty of tread, the original spare wheel is included and mount.  The hard top appears to be original.  All wipers, brake lights, and turn signals are operational, but it does not have a radio currently.  Both jump seats are present!  Original headliner also appears to be present, and it is sagging in several areas, this does not affect vision or driveability and can be easily removed. 

Tow hitch also!  As an added bonus, it has a large Warn winch mounted on the front of the vehicle, I have not personally tested this winch but it appears to have all parts present.  Front bumper appears to be custom made, and features old cases mounted on both sides.  Bumperettes in rear appear to be original. 

If you have any questions, or if you need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me on 615-300-6004 (call or text), or email me through eBay. 

Yes, there is some rust present on the body, which is why I am not asking $50,000+ for this FJ40.  This Land Cruiser has been repainted in a sky blue hue, and looking at the door jambs, it appears that it was originally sky blue.  The paint is not perfect.  Yes, this FJ has rust, this may not be the best choice of vehicle for you.  However, if you want an affordable FJ40 that starts easily, is fun to drive and one that attracts A LOT of attention, this may be the FJ you have been looking for!   FJ40's are sky-rocketing in value, and this would be an excellent truck to keep, especially if you want to rescue Jeeps!

Please do not bid if you are not serious; bids are legally binding and non-paying bidders will be fully prosecuted. 

For any serious buyer, I am happy to provide the name and number of my mechanic who performed the tune-up and inspection. 

We do take trade-ins, please contact me directly for details. 

I will end the auction early for a reasonable offer, but please do not contact me asking what the reserve is (it is set very low), or what my "bottom dollar" would be. 

We accept the following forms of payment: Cash, Personal Check, Wire Transfer (small fee applies), or Credit/Debit Cards (3% swipe fee applies).  We do charge a $199 doc fee, a .03% City of Nashville tax, and $25 to send the title to you via FedEx.  This FJ40 does have a clean/clear title in my possession, and I will only release the title after all funds are received.  We will wait seven (7) days for funds to clear if paying by personal check. 

I ship vehicles frequently, both nationally and internationally, and I can have this FJ40 delivered to your door for less than you might think.  In order to get the most accurate shipping quote, please send me your zip code for a ballpark estimate.  The FJ will be made available for shipping only after all funds have been received.

Again, please ask any and all questions BEFORE the end of the auction, my direct cell phone number is 615-300-6004. 

Thanks!

Toyota nearing $1B settlement of unintended acceleration criminal probe

Sun, 09 Feb 2014

According to those all-too-nebulous "people familiar with the matter," Toyota is close to a settlement with the US federal government to end a criminal probe over its long-running unintended acceleration fiasco. Though Toyota has never admitted guilt, the deal could reportedly crest a billion dollars and would likely include a criminal deferred prosecution agreement, and while we're not legal experts, The Wall Street Journal explains that such a deal would "[force Toyota] to accept responsibility while avoiding the potentially crippling consequences of federal criminal convictions."
The report from WSJ also suggests that Toyota is facing charges that it "made false or incomplete disclosures" to various government agencies regarding possible defects to its cars. Such charges may include mail and wire fraud violations. Toyota has already paid out fines totaling $66.2 million to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration because it failed to report safety defects in a timely manner.
This deal with the federal government is not related to the billion-dollar class-action settlement reached with Toyota owners over falling vehicle values, and it's also different from the roughly 400 lawsuits still in courts alleging personal injury of wrongful death due to cases of unintended acceleration. In other words, don't expect to hear the end of such courtroom verdicts and settlements anytime soon...

Toyota Tacoma helps stand up to your girlfriend, mimes, magicians and the Grim Reaper

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

It takes a lot to get a product noticed in today's fast-paced world, but one avenue that's always seemed to grab the eyeballs of consumers has been humor. Toyota knows this rule well, and has put together a quartet of spots called "Tacoma Wins," in which the midsize pickup's features and specifications best a number of seemingly worthy competitors.
Whether it be sobbing girlfriends, a circus magician, a grim reaper or the scariest thing of all, a mime, the Tacoma looks well equipped to deal with it. Take a look below for all four of Toyota's newest spots.
