Thank you for looking at my FJ40. I have owned this truck for 17 years, and have many fond memories in it. As I have grown older my priorities have changed, and I find that I no longer use the truck as it should be used. I realize that buying anything over the internet is a risky thing to do, so I will try to be as honest as possible about the condition of the truck. It is my goal that if you buy it, you have no surprises as to what you purchased.

All of the mechanical updating was performed by professionals, and was done over ten years ago. Since then I have put maybe 5,000 miles on the truck.

The Body was Redone in 1982, and an all aluminum floor was installed. It is from the front floor in the cab to the rear of the truck, it was done professionally and the welds are nice. The body panels were then bolted to the Aluminum floor because you cannot weld two different metals. The body panels will need to be replaced (rocker, quarter panel, rear sill). What is on the body panels of the tub is bondo, and it is beginning to rust and crack. The Hood of the truck also has small dents and two spots in the front that appear to be rusted, but are actually a crack in the metal. The windshield is rusted on the inner bottom and will need to be replaced. I say need to be replaced meaning that if you want a show truck they are too far gone, but they are fine for a driver. The steering wheel has play due to the steering box needing replacement. The frame as you can see from the pictures is in fairly good shape. The bottom of the main frame rail on the left side forward of the leaf spring was rusted out, and a patch of metal was installed. You can also see that the bottom of the main channels have had rust in them at some time as they are raised, and not flat as they would have been from the factory. Tires are starting to show slight Dry-Rot cracking in between tread, tread is 90%.

The truck is mechanically very strong and has never given me any problems. The motor runs great and performs well. I honestly would not hesitate to drive the truck anywhere.

If you have any questions please ask. Like I said, I don’t really need to sell the truck, and honestly want the buyer to be happy and know what they are getting.

Toyota GT86 engineers explored shooting brake and sedan variants, are they still in the cards?

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

According to the Toyota UK blog, engineers for the automaker were so excited developing the GT86 coupe that they investigated producing a whole family of models based on the rear-wheel drive sports car. And at least one engineer - product chief Tetsuya Tada - still hopes it can happen, even if not everyone at Toyota is onboard. Tada: "Actually we tried to do this secretly but the executives found us out. They said: 'What are you doing? Will you please focus on the coupe.'"
Those mooted variants included both a four-door sedan and a shooting brake. Why? Aside from the pure excellence of a lightweight, brilliantly handling hatchback, Toyota was keenly aware of the fact that it may need to spread the cost of development out across several models. Tada says that's part of the reason why it was so easy to create the convertible. The company knew from the outset that a softtop version was in the cards, and built the machine's structure to accommodate having the roof sliced off.
Tada also made mention of the already-announced collaboration between Toyota and BMW. The engineer said that the GT86 was particularly helpful because it demonstrated just how successful a product conceived and designed by two different companies can be. While he didn't say exactly what Toyota and BMW are up to, it's clear the two are looking into a number of possibilities. It's an interesting read with a lot of

Tesla now California's top automotive employer

Fri, 16 May 2014

Tesla has knocked off Toyota as the biggest auto employer in the state of California, employing over 6,000 people to the Japanese company's 5,300. That lead is only likely to grow, as the EV manufacturer prepares to add another 500 jobs by the end of the year, and as Toyota begins its relocation to its new North American headquarters in Texas. The news comes barely a week after the company announced a $50 million loss during the first quarter of 2014.
Tesla's statewide employment could be set to double, beyond even 6,500 people, if it follows through on rumors to construct its eagerly awaited gigafactory in the Golden State. The $5-billion venture could add another 6,500 employees, making Tesla not just the largest automotive employer in the state, but making it one of the largest employers in the state full stop.
The investment of Tesla and its founder (and real-life Tony Stark), Elon Musk, has been substantial. The company has added 3,000 employees in the state since 2013, reopening the Toyota and General Motors joint-venture factory that use to be known as NUMMI in 2009 and constructing a design studio in Los Angeles, all in addition to its Palo Alto headquarters.
