This is a frame off restoration of a US spec 1982 Fj40 Land Cruiser.
It has only 125,000 miles on original 2F with all emissions equipment intact. Passed CA SMOG with flying colors.
Very strong running original 2F. Just tuned-up with new plugs, cap/rotor, and rebuilt carburetor. It is equipped
with factory power steering and front disc brakes.
Late model FJ40 (8/1980 and newer) uses the upgraded 4-speed and "split-case" from an FJ60. Much stronger and
quieter. There are no official numbers of fj40 brought to US market in 1982. It's been said that between
1,000-1,500 were actually brought to market here. Only around 300 1983 Fj40's were brought to US market in 1983.
Making this 1982 FJ40 rare in there own right being one of the last full production year.
Being a “un cut” CA fj40 it had minimal rust prior to restoration. Tub, body parts, frame amid undercarriage
components were media blasted. Tub & body parts were etch primed. Frame and undercarriage components (excluding
axles) were powder coated satin black. A new driver floor pan and rear sill panel were replaced. Passenger side
ambulance door received new bottom sheet metal. The body was repeatedly blocked and sanded to perfection. The
fj40 was color changed to a factor color "rustic green" code 621. Sprayed as a 2 stage (color & clear coat)
Every part on or under this land cruiser was meticulously sanded and painted, powder coated or ceramic coated. The
land cruiser was put together with new and/ or OEM stainless or zinc plated hardware All weather striping rubber &
felt is OEM Toyota new. Seats were reupholstered. Tuffy center console was installed. Has a Alpine head unit.
Has 5 new 33x10.5 BFG All Terrain tires on original steel wheels. Wheels were painted same white as roof cap &
bezel. Wheels were pinstriped with matching rustic green paint.
Old Man Emu suspension (springs and shocks) were installed.

This is a beautiful restoration with no expense spared.

NHTSA investigating 30,000 Toyota Camry Hybrids for brake assist problems
Mon, Jan 27 2014Older model Toyota Camry Hybrids are under investigation by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for potential braking problems. Enough complaints have poured into the NHTSA website that the agency is now taking a look at the problem, which could affect around 30,000 vehicles from the 2007 and 2008 model years. According to Reuters, 59 complaints have been submitted revolving around an "intermittent loss of assisted braking" which means the car takes longer to stop. Interestingly, the rate of complaints is increasing. Toyota is reportedly cooperating with NHTSA and there has not yet been an official recall on the Camry Hybrids. In 2006, Toyota said Brake Assist was "an electronic function that senses an emergency stop and applies increased braking power once the driver touches the brake pedal." When Toyota unveiled the 2007 Camry Hybrid, it proudly stated that the new Brake Assist function would be standard. Other Toyota hybrids have had problems with their brakes in the past, including the 2010 Prius and Lexus HS 250h hybrid. You can read some of the complaints about Brake Assist in the Camry Hybrids to the NHTSA here. People are saying that the "Check VSC" lights can come on before the brakes loose some of their power and a lot of them are being quoted repair costs of over $3,000 by Toyota dealers.

Toyota GT86 convertible could debut in March
Tue, 27 Nov 2012The dates are lining up, now we wait to see how the badges align. Just before the Toyota GT 86/Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ line-up was introduced at the Tokyo Motor Show last year, there was a report that Subaru was considering a convertible while Toyota wouldn't even comment on it. That got swapped around when earlier this year the chief engineer on Toyota's side said a convertible was coming, and then a Scion FR-S droptop was confirmed for early 2014.
Autocar now reports that the Toyota GT 86 convertible will make its first appearance at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show in March. In a car whose specs like weight, packaging, horsepower and center of gravity were all tightly controlled to get the most from the least, the changes necessitated by chopping the roof could make this a very different car. It's said to employ a fabric roof to keep a "small" weight gain check, and the suspension will be softened to work more harmoniously with the decreased body stiffness. And somewhere in all that the back seat and trunk space will need to take a hit.
In other news, Autocar says the hi-po GT 86 with some kind of capacitor system instead of batteries is being worked on for 2015.
