1997 Toyota Land Cruiser Full Time 4WD 4X4 <br>
Clean Title, Pink In Hand <br>
Rare 40th Anniversary Edition <br>
*Sorry no diff locks on this one* <br><br>

Here's your chance to own an Iconic truck. This is the last year of this body style and they are very difficult to find in this good of condition. The body and interior are overall in very good condition, just a few minor dings/scratches here and there, see pics. Previous owner had this thing for 14 years and all owners have kept it in the garage since new, notice there's no paint fade like you usually see with these model Land Cruisers. <br><br>

This truck also has a fully boxed frame making it a very solid and safe vehicle. These things are built like tanks. Bullet proof engine and drive terrain, 1 ton axels front and rear (plenty strong enough to handle 35" tires. Famous straight six motor - this is one of the most reliable engines Toyota has EVER built. 300K+ miles is common place on these things. <br><br>

This truck even has the orignal tools, jack, socket set, etc. These are all very rare to find still with the truck, they usually end up in someones garage and never follow the truck. <br><br>

Cruiser has a lot of new items & approx. cost (I have most of the receipts):<br>
 - New BFG All Terrain Tires (top rated for snow)
- $1200 <br>
- New Alternator - approx. $200 <br>
- New hoses including the large expensive one
that connects to the air filter - $300 <br>
- Just had the oil change, new oil filter, etc. I
will smog for buyer <br>
- New battery - $120 <br>
- In total I've probably put in over $2000 into
the truck in the last year and a half<br><br>

Fully Loaded! Features Include:<br>
 - Power everything: steering, windows, seats,
door locks <br>
- Sun roof! <br>
- Tinted windows<br>
- Hitch set up <br>
- Alloy wheels, with all of the center caps
(those usually tend to go missing) <br>
- Leather Interior, great condition for its age.

No rips! <br>
- Two tone leather that only came with the 40th
Anniversary Edition <br>
- Three row seating, 7 passenger <br>
- Removable third row for extra storage <br>
- Roof rack (stock) <br>
- CD Changer & AM/FM Radio<br>
 - Automatic transmission <br>
- Full Sized Spare<br>
- Straight axle front end <br><br>

There's only a few minor problems:<br>
 - Slight oil leak/consumption. I only have to
add a quart a couple of times between oil changes, every 1500 miles or so. <br>
- Power antenna button doesn't work. My mechanic
told me it should be an easy fix, but it's not that big of a deal to me. All other power itmes work! <br>
- Sometimes has a squeek in the steering collumn
when turning (usually when its cold), I looked it up on forums, just needs to have some grease put on underneath the steering wheel somewhere. <br>
- Driver side visor hangs a little low, doesn't
bother me, but if your over 6' tall it might. <br>
- Sometimes the rear passenger side door light
comes on as if the door is open when its not.<br>
- That's about all I can think of, really is in
great running/mechanical condition. <br><br>

This truck will make a great daily driver, family car, weekend warrior, camping truck, ski/snow board rig, fishing & hunting truck, build your rock crawler, etc. Your wish is it's command! You will love this Land Cruiser. SOLID SOLID TRUCK. Sorry I don't have very good pics, I will update later when I can.

 

I prefer to deal locally, but may consider other methods of sale. I will only sell within the US.

Toyota GT86 GT4 racer is ready for UK competition

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

It's about time we saw someone cook up a legitimate race version of the delectable Toyota GT86, and now it looks as if GPRM has done just that. The Buckingham-based race engineering team has built the creation you see here, complete with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, direct-injection four-cylinder boxer cooked up by Nicholson McLaren Engines. The team says the new mill delivers between 360 and 400 horsepower to the rear wheels depending on final testing, which is a sight bit more than the 197 horses the naturally aspirated stock mill offers.
The car will compete in GT4 events, including the Avon Tyres British GT Championship. Technically, the GPRM effort isn't factory backed, but the team says the effort "has the blessing of Toyota Great Britain." How could it not? You can check out the brief press release below below, and be sure to take a closer look at the machine in our gallery.

First Toyota unintended acceleration case headed for trial

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Toyota is going to be back in the spotlight, as the first of its unintended acceleration lawsuits is headed for trial. This case covers a Los Angeles sushi shop owner, Noriko Uno. According to the what the family told The Detroit News, Uno only put about 10,000 miles on her 2006 Toyota Camry in four years. Uno was apparently afraid of high speeds, avoiding the freeway and taking a route home along LA's surface streets to avoid them.
On August 28, 2009, Uno's Camry suddenly accelerated to 100 miles per hour, eventually striking a telephone poll and a tree and killing her. The family contends that Uno attempted to step on the brakes and pull the emergency brake, neither of which brought her speed under control, while Toyota maintains that improperly installed floormats and driver error have been behind the majority of the 80 cases expected to be heard in court.
In Uno's case, The Detroit News is expecting the trial to focus on the lack of an override if the gas and brake pedals were pressed at the same time. Brake overrides were installed on Toyota's European fleet. The Uno family attorney will need to prove to the jury that it wasn't driver error that killed Noriko Uno.

Toyota recalling 1.67 million vehicles worldwide in 3 campaigns

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

Toyota is issuing three separate recalls covering 1.67 million vehicles worldwide with most of those models in Japan. It looks like the campaigns' impact on the US may be smaller, though. According to Reuters, Toyota isn't aware of any accidents, injuries or fatalities affecting the models. Some yet-unnamed Lexus models might also be affected.
The largest of the campaigns does not currently affect any US-market vehicles. About 802,000 units of the Toyota Crown Majesta, Crown, Noah and Voxy in Japan are being repaired to replace a seal that could leak in the brake master cylinder. Those already leaking get a new brake booster, as well, according to Reuters.
The only recall currently believed to affect the US is due to a problem covering approximately 759,000 vehicles with 423,000 of them here. The repair is to fix a faulty fuel delivery pipe that could cause a fire if the fuel leaks out. Unfortunately, we don't know which models it covers. Autoblog spoke to Toyota spokesperson Mona Richard and was told the information was still "under embargo." When exactly that embargo will lift isn't yet known, but we're on the case.
