Volcan 4x4, LLC registered in Florida presents our 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ43 Soft Top. We named her Rosalina for her shiny Freeborn Red paint same code as the data plate under the hood.
This is a highly desirable and highly restored truck. If you want an FJ43 this is your truck. This truck stops traffic in Colombia. Imagine what it will do in your neighborhood. This truck was recently highly restored by the previous owner and is shiny outside and underneath. No rust. Volcan 4x4 then spent over a month going through the truck with our specialists down in Colombia. All work was overseen by Land Cruiser enthusiast, US Citizen and owner of Volcan 4x4, Charles Guy. We performed the following: 1. 4 new Tokico shocks plus steering stabilizer 2. 5 restored and repainted 16 inch Toyota rims 3. 5 new South American brand unique traditional Mud Terrain 7.50 x 16 tires. These tires are great. 4. All new 4 drum brakes including drums, cylinders, brake lines, shoes. Truck stops straight and strongly coming down an 8000 foot mountain in the rain. 5. New oil, oil filter and air filter 6. New Pioneer head unit with ipod control and charger and remote and unique removable speaker box 7, Brand new exhaust 8. Recent alignment Can not confirm if this was a frame off restoration but all the bolts are new under the truck and the body paint under the truck along with the chassis is very very clean. Please note the stainless steel bolts. Some of the door and window gaskets are aftermarket but overall the truck looks very sharp. The new interior is a custom fabric used in Colombian restorations for its durability. This contrasting black interior has a denim feel and new car smell. It stays cool to the touch and looks perfectly durable for a trip to the beach. The custom top is high quality with high quality hardware and looks as new. Mechanically the truck starts up immediately with no choke. It feels very strong. Can not confirm if it was rebuilt. We test drove this truck upon completion one hour up from an elevation of 5000 feet on up to 8000 feet and it never overheated or lost power. The trip back down the mountain was in the rain and the brakes felt strong and secure. Please review videos of this test drive on Volcan 4x4 channel on youtube. Volcan 4x4 previously restored and imported a 1983 FJ40 into Tampa, Florida and sold it recently at Mecum Auctions in Kissimmee. We are now importing this FJ43 along with a classic Nissan Patrol. The trucks should arrive April. A $10,000 refundable deposit to Volcan 4x4, LLC will secure this truck at the agreed price. The buyer can fly to Tampa to review it. The FJ43's have enjoyed a great following on the auction circuit with prices in the $40,000 to $80,000 range. At $40,000 this truck is priced well within the market given its condition. Truck will be tagged in Florida or arrangements can be made with the Buyer's state. Remember these trucks did not have USA emissions equipment but most states have a model year waiver such as Florida does. Buyer is responsible for registering in their state. Volcan 4x4 is specializing in importing high quality, unique 4x4's to the US classic 4x4 community. Why buy an FJ40 when you can have this unique soft top FJ43 for $40,000? There are more photos on Facebook.com/volcan4x4 and youtube volcan4x4 channel. VIN will be same as the chassis number per Florida title. FJ43101104. Mileage unknown. |

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
New drifting world record set in Toyota GT86
Wed, 30 Jul 2014We have entered a drifting arms race. Last year, BMW smashed the Guinness World Record for the longest drift by hanging the tail out for 51.3 miles around a wet skid pad in an M5 at the BMW Performance Driving School in South Carolina. That beat the previous milestone of nearly seven miles. Now, Bimmer's record is up in smoke as well and is in the possession of a Toyota.
German driver Harald Müller pummeled the old record to drift for 89.55 miles around a 0.15-mile (235.5-meter) course in Samsun, Turkey, in a Toyota GT86 (or Scion FR-S as it's known in the US). According to the Guinness World Records website, it took him 612 laps and 2 hours, 25 minutes and 18 seconds to manage the achievement. Sit back to watch a few minutes of the German's two and a half hours behind the wheel with the tail out.
Toyota Prius + gets refresh in UK, is it coming here?
Fri, 10 Oct 2014Toyota has unveiled a mid-cycle refresh of its seven-passenger, UK-market Prius +, known here in the US as the five-passenger Prius V. The revised hybrid MPV now boasts looks inspired by Toyota's more aggressive compact stylings as seen on its new Yaris and Aygo - particularly in the redone front fascia.
The new LED headlights are the most obvious change, sporting a sharper style, while the vertical slats that bookend front fascia are much larger and deeper, and are now home to LED running lights. The lower grille is also newly enlarged and trimmed in black plastic. Changes out back are far less noticeable, with the biggest tweak being a new diffuser that's been integrated into the rear bumper.
The interior gets a light freshening, too, with fresh trimmings around the switchgear, as well as a new 4.2-inch TFT display in the center mounted instrument cluster. The latter includes a new "Eco Judge" function designed to help owners drive more efficiently through a point-based reward system.
