1993 Toyota Land Cruiser As Is Project! Bad Transmission 4.5l on 2040-cars

Year:1993 Mileage:277002

McCammon, Idaho, United States

1993 Toyota Land Cruiser project. It is dark hunter green.  It was a daily driver but now the transmission is not working properly. It wont' go in reverse or high gear.  It has a few small dings but it has never been crashed.

I drive it some times but about 40 mph is as fast as it can be safely operated.



The engine seems great. It leaks oil but does not burn oil. It recently passed smog check here in Meridian, Idaho.


The tires were recently replaced and are nearly like new. (Yokohamas) The starter and battery were replaced about 2 years ago. It starts crisp and easy and runs/idles smooth.

This is a partial list of the defects. 

The power steering leaks and is empty. The paint has got those whitish patches from the clear coat breaking down. The front leather seats are falling apart.  The center console lid broke and was removed (and tossed) years ago.  The headlight switch is non operational and is operated by a toggle switch hanging under the steering consol. The plastic surround of the steering console is off and the clips that hold it in place are broken.  The windshield is cracked.  The gas charged hood and hatch assists won't hold them up any more. And yes, you will find more issues.

I have owned it for just about 20 years as I bought it in 1994.



It is kind of used up but would make a great project. It can be driven locally (not over 40 mph) but it is not ready to go!! This is a fixer upper in need of multiple repairs!!! It is sold completely "AS IS"! 

I am not a shop.  I do not have shipping contacts but you will find me easy to deal with.  I know you can't be sure about an "AS IS" car until you see it.  If you win and come to look it over and find anything you do not like, I will refund the deposit and friendly end the transaction.  I ask that you come take a look with in 2 weeks.  Cash only, if you send a shipper, he must be able to look it over,  make a final decision and pay in cash.

Toyota recalling 615k Sienna models over rollaway risk

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

Toyota has announced a recall affecting approximately 615,000 Sienna minivans due to a possible rollaway risk. All of the vehicles in question are from the 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2009 model years.
In an official statement, the automaker states that the problem stems from the vehicle's shift lever assembly. "Because of the potential for damage to the shift lock solenoid installed in involved vehicles, there is a possibility that the shift lever could be moved out of the 'P' position without the driver depressing the brake pedal," Toyota said. Because of this fault, the affected Sienna models could roll away without warning, increasing the risk for a crash.
Owners will be notified via first class mail, and the affected Sienna models can be taken to Toyota dealerships to have the shift lock solenoid replaced with a new one. Have a look below for the automaker's official release.

2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback, Volvos earn IIHS Top Safety Pick rating

Tue, Oct 2 2018

It's time for another round-up of recent IIHS crash tested cars. The trio this time include the 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback, 2019 Volvo XC90 and 2018 Volvo S90. All three have earned one of the highest ratings from the IIHS, the Top Safety Pick. And all three continue a trend of very safe cars having slightly below-par headlights, preventing them from earning the highest Top Safety Pick+ rating. Of these three cars, the Corolla Hatchback has the most impressive scores. It earned the highest "Good" rating in every single crash test, including the difficult small-overlap passenger-side collision. It also received the top score for access to LATCH anchors for child seats. The standard forward collision prevention technology also brought home the best score possible, stopping the car before a crash at speeds up to 25 mph. The headlights themselves weren't particularly bad either, earning the second-highest score of "Acceptable" with both the standard and optional LED headlights. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Both Volvos shared similar scores to the Corolla Hatchback, with "Good" ratings for all crash tests they participated in, and top rank for their standard forward collision technology. Both vehicles were not tested for the passenger-side small overlap collision, so there is no score in that area. Both also received the "Acceptable" rating for LATCH anchor access. In the headlight department, the XC90 earned "Acceptable" scores for both of its available headlights, and the S90 received an "Acceptable" for its optional lights, while the standard ones were rated as "Marginal."

Toyota nearing $1B settlement of unintended acceleration criminal probe

Sun, 09 Feb 2014

According to those all-too-nebulous "people familiar with the matter," Toyota is close to a settlement with the US federal government to end a criminal probe over its long-running unintended acceleration fiasco. Though Toyota has never admitted guilt, the deal could reportedly crest a billion dollars and would likely include a criminal deferred prosecution agreement, and while we're not legal experts, The Wall Street Journal explains that such a deal would "[force Toyota] to accept responsibility while avoiding the potentially crippling consequences of federal criminal convictions."
The report from WSJ also suggests that Toyota is facing charges that it "made false or incomplete disclosures" to various government agencies regarding possible defects to its cars. Such charges may include mail and wire fraud violations. Toyota has already paid out fines totaling $66.2 million to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration because it failed to report safety defects in a timely manner.
This deal with the federal government is not related to the billion-dollar class-action settlement reached with Toyota owners over falling vehicle values, and it's also different from the roughly 400 lawsuits still in courts alleging personal injury of wrongful death due to cases of unintended acceleration. In other words, don't expect to hear the end of such courtroom verdicts and settlements anytime soon...
