1984 Toyota Fj60 Land Cruiser 4x4 Project on 2040-cars
Eagle, Idaho, United States
I've owned this for about 3 years and driven it all over town and the mountains until I seized the engine a few months ago. Everything was reliable until the engine died. The seats were solidly mounted with to the stock brackets after about 10 hours of fabrication. I have no idea what the seats came from but they're leather, power and very comfortable. The passenger seat has a 1" tear that isn't noticeable to most people and could easily be repaired. I have not finished hooking up the power to the seats. The dash is cracked and peeling. Where the bezel surround the air controls I narrowed it and removed the coin holder that is normally there. You may notice the radio is not in the stock location because of this. The radiator is a polished aluminum radiator that was installed in 2013 and works great. It's made especially for a Cruiser. I installed a Specter Offroad smog pump delete bracket/pulley. The reason why a few engine items are missing is because I thought I was going to put a 5300 in it but I have too many projects and too little time. This does have rust in the normal spots. I cut out most of the rust and replaced it with fresh metal around the drivers side rear wheel area. The passenger side still has the rust. The tailgate has rust on the bottom 1". You could replace the rust with fresh metal, use it as is or get another tailgate. The roof rail has rust bubbles around it. This has the original front and rear bumpers which are pretty straight. The transmission and transfer case work great. Clutch is good. You'll see the the rear window needs replaced. It has a hole in it. All seat belts are there an installed. Door panels would look better if you replaced them too. I purchased the wheels from Summit back in September and they fit great along with the 33x10.50-15 BFG's. One tire is new and the other three are good tires. They do not need replaced. This does not have a lift kit on it and the tires are tight but with a little massaging around the fender wells they'll fit perfectly. There are a couple of spots that get some tire rub but very little. The lights work and it's ready for a new engine.
This Cruiser needs an engine, carb and distributor to drive. Nothing else. Everything else it could use is cosmetic. It's a project.
If you want it shipped then I can have it at my business in Garden City, Idaho for a truck to pick it up. Right now it's at my house.Shipping is the buyers responsibility. I can help load it. |

eBay Find of the Day: Harley-Davidson powered Toyota Prius [w/video]
Thu, 03 Apr 2014Sometimes we pluck cars from the listings of eBay Motors because they're old and interesting, some for being simply lovely, some for rarity and some for pure fun. And sometimes we pick eBay Finds of the Day, because they're hacked apart Toyota Prius' with Harley Davidson V-twin-power; concocted by the same mind that brought you innumerable Jalopnik articles and is partially responsible for the joy that is the 24 Hours of LeMons. This time it's that last one.
A fairly subtle tweet from long-time Jalop contributor and well-regarded grease monkey, Murilee Martin, hipped us to this crazy Frankenstein Prius. Built from the bones of a 2008 Toyota and the heart of a 1986 Harley-Davidson Sportster 883, the motive portmanteau is, well... it's a thing.
Toyota's advanced Hybrid Synergy Drive has been unceremoniously wrenched and snipped out of the engine bay, making room (via an artful hole in the hood) for the towering, bored out V-twin. Or, as the maestro himself puts it:
Toyota Prius sets a different kind of Nurburgring lap record [w/video]
Tue, 15 Jul 2014Scroll down the leaderboards of Nürburgring lap times and you'll see mostly racing cars, supercars and sports cars. Delve deep enough and you'll eventually get to hatchbacks and sedans, albeit the most performance-focused of their kind. But a hybrid? Sure, the Porsche 918 Spyder posted the top time for a street-legal series production car, and it's technically a hybrid, but we're talking about another kind of hybrid here. We're talking about a Toyota Prius.
That's right: the Prius just set a lap record around the Nordschleife. But it wasn't for the lap time. In fact, miles per hour barely factored in (except for staying above the minimum 37-mph average speed mandated on the vaunted racing circuit). No, this was about miles per gallon.
Toyota took one of its Prius Plug-In hybrids to the Nürburgring, topped up the battery, put on a set of low-rolling-resistance tires and put automotive journalist Joe Clifford behind the wheel with a mandate to use as little fuel as possible. After one second shy of 21 minutes, the Prius completed its lap having used just five tablespoons of fuel.
Ram takes out frustrations on Camry
Fri, May 29 2015No, not a Ram pickup truck. This is an actual ram, as in a male sheep, headbutting the hell out of a Toyota Camry that made the unfortunate decision to interrupt its battle with a rival member of the flock. Now, before you say, "How dare that Camry harm that cuddly sheep," we'd like to point out just how viciously the two males were fighting before the Toyota butted in. And after smashing the driver's side front fascia, the ram goes right back to attempting to beat down its opponent. All things considered then, we'd call this Ram: 1, Camry: 0.
