I am selling my Toyota Land Cruiser BJ73 ,this is a medium wheelbase 70 series cruiser with the removable FRP Hard top.It is a 1986 with only 140K Kilometers wich is only 90K miles on it's very robust 3B diesel motor and H55 5 speed manual transmission.To top this off it even comes with the rear Full Floater axle with a Factory OEM limited slip differential.I imported this truck from Belgium myself and have it already registered and titled so it comes with a clean and clear Texas title.......not like the other imports where you have to run around for the paperwork!The 70 series are the successor from the early FJ40 series and are still produced new today for all the hostile terrains all over the world....just not for the US :(

I have put around 8K miles on it and it is mecanicly perfect,the body has been repainted and there are some spots that have some bubbles under the paint.It is not a show car but a very nice driving Cruiser,I am not trying to get a premium for it but I am not gonna give it away neither,the low miles 3B and H55 and the FF floateraxles are hard to find a Left hand drive diesel Landcruiser with only 90K miles on it usualy ends up in the high teens low twenties this one will sell with no reserve.The heater control is missing one of the knobs but I have a complete Hvac control that will go with it.The windshield frame has some rust on the inside wich is fairly common with the 70 series,I am going to Europe next month and can bring a new Fiberglass replacement with me that will never need replacing again for the new owner if necessary.It is definetly not perfect but the ideal platform for someone looking for a nice Cruiser to prepare for wheeling or an overland travel,the money you save on purchase will get you some new options to install ;-)

So if you want to own a Diesel Land Cruiser that you can drive anywhere and do anything with it then this is your truck,if you wheel it and leave a pinstripe at the side .....it's not the end of the world ;-)

It has 4 new BF Goodridge tires and I will do a maintenance on it before I sell it,I have more then one diesel Landcruiser and have all filters and fluids in stock (they are available at Napa,O'reilly and so on)so it will be ready for the new owner to just enjoy it without doing anything to it.


It is listed as a 1980 on Ebay because Ebay does not recognize Vin's from imports,but will do this if it is before 1981.But the Cruiser is a 1986

It is also for sale local and I keep the right to end this listing early if it sells local.
 

Thanks for looking

Joe

Toyota issues stop sale on 6 key models over seat fabrics; recall possible? [UPDATE]

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Toyota has issued a stop-sale order on six of its core models due to concerns about the flammability of certain seat fabrics. The issue rests not with the cloth and leather covers themselves, but with a piece of seat heater beneath them that fails to meet US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for flame retardancy.
There have been no reports of fires or injuries from the affected cars, which include some of Toyota's biggest volume sellers. 2013 and 2014 Camry, Camry Hybrid, Avalon and Sienna models equipped with heated seats are included in the stop-sale, as are 2014 Tundra pickups and Corolla sedans. The exact number of vehicles with the non-compliant materials are still being tabulated, according to The Detroit Free Press.
According to a Toyota spokesman, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been notified, although it remains to be seen if a recall will be issued. Outside of a full recall, though, it's unclear how Toyota will deal with vehicles equipped with the flammable materials that have already found homes.

Lexus takes aim at electric vehicles, again

Wed, Oct 12 2016

Lexus is once again taking aim at plug-in vehicles by emphasizing the perceived challenges of recharging batteries, rather than simply filling up with gas or hydrogen. Only this time, Toyota's luxury division appears to be zigging while everyone else is zagging. Of course, the nameplate can use all the help it can get when it comes to hybrid sales. First highlighted by Green Car Reports, Lexus has added a banner to the website of its hybrid vehicles that says "Always Charged. Always Ready." That's a not-so-veiled shot at plug-in vehicles, a sector where Toyota has minimal exposure. Lexus also notes of its hybrid vehicles that there's "nothing to plug in." Of course, there may be sour grapes at play. Through September, sales of its five hybrid models in the US dropped 17 percent from a year earlier to about 21,500 units, and September was particularly tough as hybrid sales plunged 34 percent to almost 1,800 units. Even so, the third quarter likely represented a record when it came to plug-in vehicle sales. We say "likely" because Tesla doesn't break out its US sales, and not all automakers disclose sales of their plug-ins. We calculate that sales for the quarter were at about 36,000 vehicles, up 38 percent from a year earlier. For now, Lexus doesn't sell a fuel-cell model, though it may sell a fuel-cell version of the Lexus LS full-size sedan. Toyota, of course, offers the Mirai, which has moved about 710 units this year. Lexus has gone down this proverbial road before. In 2014, the brand unveiled a similar campaign that highlighted how long it took to recharge EVs, and was ultimately taken to task by electric-vehicle advocates Plug-In America. Lexus apologized for offending anyone and said it'd review content related to hybrid advertising. Doesn't seem like an apology is in order this time out, but that doesn't mean that it's a good strategy.

New version of Toyota FT-1 Concept gets racy for Gran Turismo 6

Thu, 07 Aug 2014

Gran Turismo 6 has been the preferred marketing springboard for quite a few brands and concept cars since its debut last winter. Specifically the GT Vision concept idea - allowing manufacturers a built-in place to offer up new, original, drivable content - has enticed the likes of Mercedes, Nissan, Volkswagen, Toyota and more to dream big on the digital stage before pulling the sheets back on real concept cars.
In fact, Toyota teamed its live reveal of the FT-1 Concept at the Detroit Auto Show with an in-game launch of the car, just this past January. Looking for a second bite at the GT6 apple, Toyota has just released a teaser video for a new, FT-1 Vision GT version of the same concept.
The company isn't giving us much to go on save for the 30-second video, saying only that the concept was penned by Toyota's Calty Design Research team in California, and that it will "soon be available for download." By the looks of it, the new FT-1 seems to be more of a racecar than the original, without obvious changes to the basic form. No word on whether or not there's a physical concept car in the offing at a yet-to-be-named auto show. Stay tuned.
