Extremely rare diesel Land Cruiser.  Titled, registered, and inspected in Pennsylvania so you should have no trouble with it.  Originally a Canadian car.

Engine runs great, slight smoke on start up when it has been sitting for a while.  Shifts through all 4 gears smoothly.  Transfer case functions properly and 4wd is unstoppable with the locking hubs.  Slightly oversized tires, cruises at an indicated 55mph on the highway no problem.

Floorboards and some cargo area were repaired / replaced before it was inspected in PA last summer.  OK job done: structurally great, aesthetically not as much.  New rear sill was put in also -- same thing structurally great but could have been done with more finesse.  

Plenty of surface rust but most of it minor.  Rear quarter panels are panel-bonded aluminum to cover some holes / cut fenders.

Winch works but I've never actually used it beyond a quick test.  I would imagine that the cable would need to be replaced if you were serious about it but I have no idea.

Interior is in excellent shape, no cracks in the dash or seats.  Both jump seats included.

My intention was to drive it as-is for a few years and then spring for a new Aluminum tub down the road.  Plans have changed so off she goes.

Not working / other notes:
* Oil Pressure Gauge (faulty sender I believe)
* Fresh air vent (I'm hesitant to force the knob on the dash)
* Odometer
* Rear, driver side ambulance door is missing handle.
* Truck was resprayed at some point in the past.  Tan seems to be the original color but they were lazy and sprayed over some bolts.  

That's all that I know of, but if you're looking at this you're not expecting a showroom condition truck.  As is she's great to cruise around in and turn heads.

Toyota previews new C-HR crossover concept bound for Paris

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

We're now just a few weeks away from the start of the Paris Motor Show, and when the doors open at the Porte de Versailles, Toyota will be among the many automakers with new wares to show - including the new concept car pictured in this latest teaser image.
Called the C-HR, the concept is designed to represent an "innovative vision for a compact crossover model", incorporating "a new design language with an engaging driving experience and a hybrid powertrain." The Japanese industrial giant isn't saying much else, but the C-HR is set to debut alongside the finalized exterior design for its upcoming new fuel cell sedan.
Toyota, of course, became a pioneer in the compact crossover segment when it introduced the first-generation RAV4 way back in 1994. If the silhouette is anything to go by, however, the C-HR concept appears to adopt a far more streamlined form. Watch this space for more.

Toyota GT86 14R-60 shows how to do lightweight at a steep price

Sat, 11 Oct 2014

Toyota is finally making good on its Griffon concept from last year with this limited-edition 14R-60 that basically hops through the Toyota Racing Development catalog to imagine the ultimate lightweight GT86 (the continental relative to the Scion FR-S/Subaru BR-Z). Unfortunately, it's not coming stateside, and even if this modded Toyobaru were coming here, you might not want to pay the rather steep price.
Like the concept, the 2.0-liter boxer engine still makes the same 197 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque. However, the drivetrain isn't entirely untouched thanks to a new air filter, engine oil cooler, a reinforced clutch, lightweight flywheel, and mechanical limited-slip differential from TRD. The six-speed transmission is also tweaked, with different gearing in first and second and an altered final drive ratio.
To keep things planted the suspension gets a new coilovers, a V-shaped tower brace in the front and another in the rear. Improved deceleration comes thanks to upgraded brakes. There also are even more goodies on the outside, including a complete body kit that includes a carbon-fiber roof and massive rear spoiler. The stock wheels are replaced with 18-inch forged magnesium units, as well.

Scion iA and iM rolled into Yaris and Corolla lineups for 2017

Thu, Mar 17 2016

The Scion brand may be going away, but most of its cars (sorry, tC) are living on. We'll see the 2017 Toyota 86 (nee Scion FR-S) at the New York Auto Show next week, and the automaker already confirmed that the Scion iA and iM will be rebadged as Toyotas. But instead of standing on their own, the former Scions will be rolled into existing model lines. "Yaris iA" and "Corolla iM" will be the official names of the cars, effective for 2017. It's a smart move, paring the relatively new Scion nameplates with well-known, existing Toyota monikers. Scion spokeswoman Nancy Hubbell tells Autoblog that the iA already exists as the Yaris in the Canadian and Mexican markets, so "that connection was already there." Plus, it's better for marketing. The combination of the two vehicles all under the Yaris nameplate means Toyota can focus its advertising dollars on one vehicle line, simply saying that you can now have the Yaris as a four-door sedan or a five-door hatchback. "The same goes with Corolla," Hubbell explains. She says the existing Toyota sedan and the Scion iM "paired really well," and again, it means Toyota can advertise the Corolla as having two body styles moving forward. There are benefits from a sales perspective, too. Never mind that Scion division sales were already included in Toyota's overall numbers – calling the new cars Yaris iA and Corolla iM means the company won't have to report these cars individual sales separately. It's like when Toyota made the Matrix – its technical name was Corolla Matrix, so its individual sales didn't have to be broken out. That means an extra boost in overall numbers for the Yaris and Corolla, even if the cars would have been reported under Toyota's numbers had they kept their Scion badges. View 18 Photos Related Video:
