I bought this car in April 1997 from a private party in Seattle, Washington. At that time it passed emission testing in Seattle and all the gear is still there.  I drove the car from Seattle to my home in Anaconda, Montana.  It operated very nice, just as it was supposed to.  I have not found the time to restore it and most likely will not in the future as I have other cars that have been waiting ‘their turn’ for over 40 years.

The mechanical operation is good with the following qualification:  All of the rubber hoses, boots, fuel lines and etc. should be replaced prior to driving.  They are very old now and well past a useful and safe life.  The odometer reading is 39,195 and I believe that is the true miles.

Car has been thoroughly steam cleaned and purposely left uncoated so that you can see exactly what you are getting.  The only undercoat is the remains of the thin original coat.  It hides nothing from view.

The major pieces of body metal that should be replaced are both rear wheel well quarter panels, the bottoms of both rear doors and the rear sill.  New replacement panels are included in the auction.  There are some rusted places in the floor board beneath the front doors.  These will repair with individual shop-made patches.

New parts included that have not been installed from Spector Off Road (SOR.com):

  • Original seat upholstery kit
  • Cargo Mat
  • Carpet set
  • Dash cap
  • Ambulance door weather strip L/H
  • Ambulance door weather strip R/H
  • Drivers door weather strip
  • Passenger door weather strip

New parts included that have not been installed from Cool Cruisers of Texas (coolcruisers.com):

  • L/H quarter panel
  • R/H quarter panel
  • Rear sill
  • Ambulance door repair panels:  both doors/2 pieces per door

Replacement cost for the new parts is over $1800.00 minus freight.

This is the original paint on the car.  It is not very pretty anymore but if you want to be able to see exactly what you are getting into then it is what you want.   This car will restore nicely to a first-class Cruiser that will have no problems or shortcomings that need an excuse.

The door panels are usable but do have defects.  The seats need the upholstery kit I referenced in the “new parts” list.

If you intend to install a different engine I will buy back the complete engine for 15 percent of the sale price.

A $500.00 deposit is required which is refundable if the car is not as described.

Additional photos on request.

I have another FJ40 on eBay now.  Its story is similar to this one.

Ford only automaker to make 2012 Buzz Rankings, Toyota most improved

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

Ford landed itself a spot among the top 10 brands in the 2012 Buzz Rankings. The annual index scores 1,100 brands in 41 categories to determine which nameplates had the most positive buzz throughout the year.
For the third year in a row, Subway took the top honors overall with a score of 40.3, and Ford was the only automaker to break into the top 25 by earning a sixth-place finish overall. The manufacturer earned a score of 32.1 points, which was enough to push it up one spot from the 2011 Buzz Rankings. Honda managed 21.2 points overall, which is still well behind 25th-place Kohl's at 26.5 points. Toyota, Volkswagen and BMW all round out the top five automakers.
The 2012 Buzz Rankings also keep track of which brands improved the most over the past year, and this year, Toyota was the manufacturer with the largest leap forward. The Japanese automaker jumped from just 14 points in 2011 to 20.5 in 2012. Chrysler, Kia, Dodge and Volkswagen all saw sizable steps forward as well. Be sure to head over to the Brand Index site for more information.

Toyota is world's top-selling automaker for second year in a row

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

Toyota is the top-selling automaker in the world. Again. Still. With total reported sales, including those from subsidiaries, of 9.98 million in 2013, Toyota's performance was enough to outpace rival General Motors by around 270,000 vehicles. That's a 2.4-percent gain over 2012, and it makes Toyota the top-seller two years in a row. Still, the gap between the top three is shrinking - Toyota held a 460,000-unit lead in 2012.
GM sold 9.71 million vehicles last year, a four-percent increase, coming in second place ahead of Volkswagen, which sold around 9.5 million. According to Bloomberg, Toyota CEO Akio Toyoda said his company managed to win the sales race while also remaining more profitable than GM or VW.
It's going to be another interesting year in 2014 as the three behemoth automakers vie for the title of World's Largest. Toyota has predicted that it will increase sales in 2014 to 10.32 million - which would make Toyota the first automaker ever to surpass 10 million global sales - though General Motors and VW are expected to again fight for the lead in the massive Chinese market. Stay tuned.
