Hi, It's hard to believe but I am selling my 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser 40th Anniversary Edition #4726.
Hard to believe because I was on the hunt for this vehicle for a very long time. I am a big fan Toyota's and specifically the Land Cruiser. I've had a few good ones over the years and have sold some very nice cruiser's here on eBay to extremely satisfied buyers. Also just sold a very nice original 87 4Runner. Please check my feedback and be confident in the description of this cruiser. I am the 4th owner, all ownership has been in California so it's rust free. I was looking for a well cared for 40th and found this one mildly built. I bought it last year and have made it even better. Really was planning on keeping for a long time but things change so it's being offered with a buy it now price and I'll consider offers. Original paint in quite good condition for the age of the cruiser with no clear coat fade. Minor scratches and a few dents from general use here and there but in much better shape than average. Original interior in incredible condition. Minor wear on the drivers seat, the rest of the seats are quite exceptional. I removed the wood dash kit and there are a few nicks in the plastic you can see in the photos. It's got an OME 2.5" lift which I believe are heavies front and rear. TJM front bumper with a Superwinch winch that functions perfectly with accessory bag included. Outback Products power coated aluminum full length safari roof rack. OEM roof rack side rails removed (marine grade screws, stainless steel finish washers with soft plastic washers in place of the holes, never leaks and look nice). Thule wind faring to keep noise to a minimum. KC lights on TJM bumper (not hooked up). OEM wheels professionally painted to match the body side moldings with Goodyear Duratrac's 285/75/16 with less than 2000 miles. Spare BFG All-Terrain 285/75/16 (new) on original 40th wheel. Tow package with 4 way flat and 7 pin round wiring with a trailer brake controller (I installed to pull my Starcraft RT pop up trailer). Otherwise pretty much stock with factory stereo, new factory floor mats (front, second and cargo area). Everything works including the power antenna, electric seats function perfectly, PWR and 2ND gear start buttons, power mirrors, power windows etc. No issues with this cruiser. Any issues have been addressed, just drive and enjoy. It runs, drives, shifts, brakes, steers, rides great again with no issues. Shifts into 4 low very smoothly and center diff lock engages (sorry it does not have front and rear lockers). As I stated I planned to keep for a long time and did a ton preventative maintenance at a large cost! Including but not limited to: valve cover gasket, spark plug tube seals, spark plugs, ignition wires, distributor cap, starter, thermostat, throttle body gasket, all drive belts, new copper core radiator, PCV hose, EGR vacuum switch and more. No thrown codes or check engine lights. Passes California smog with ease. Recent brakes and full vehicle service. 2 keys and one OEM keyless entry fob for Toyota security system. Clean CarFax and original window sticker (photos below). Current Cali tags that expire in May. Overall a very nice 40th Edition Land Cruiser FZJ80. Needs nothing. I really can't think of issues to disclose as I've addressed them all. But keep in mind it is a 17 year old vehicle and it's not new but almost as good as it gets. It's located in Santa Barbara, CA with a clear title in my name. If you click buy it now or submit an offer and I accept, please be prepared to make a deposit via PayPal immediately. The balance must be paid within 5 days via cash, bank transfer or wire transfer. I can pick you up at the Santa Barbara Airport or I'll assist with your transporter. If you have any questions you can message me through eBay or contact me on my mobile at 805-4one5-2848. Happy to help if you arrange a pre-buy inspections BEFORE you buy it now or make an offer. As is, where is. No warranties express, written or implied. Thanks! Patrick |

Honda may recall up to 1M vehicles for airbag issue, following Toyota's lead
Mon, 16 Jun 2014It seems Toyota won't be the only one recalling the faulty Takata airbag inflators for long. Honda insiders in Japan claim that the company is getting close to announcing its own worldwide campaign that would begin before the end of June.
Unnamed sources close to Honda in Japan tell Automotive News that the company is pursuing an internal investigation into possibly affected models and is working with Takata to gather more information. They claim that it could involve even more than the 1.14 million cars worldwide that the automaker covered under the first recall for the problem in April 2013, including 561,000 vehicles in the US.
Toyota jumpstarted this process last week when it recalled over 2 million cars worldwide, including 844,277 in the US. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began a preliminary evaluation into the issue following six reported incidents, and started assembling data about potentially affected models from Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Chrysler. NHTSA also began investigating Takata itself.
MotorWeek remembers retro icons, Supra and NSX
Thu, 16 Oct 2014It's easy to poke a joke here and there about John Davis, the long-time host of MotorWeek. His voice is so monotonous that, from time to time, if you closed your eyes, you may think it's generated via a computer. But you have to give him and the rest of the show a lot of credit. The program has been on the air for decades, giving people direct, straight-down-the middle automotive reviews.
MotorWeek's massive back catalog of reviews are slowly making their way onto YouTube, and they provide a fascinating chance to look back on how performance cars rank against their contemporaries from back in the day. Two recent additions include the show's old looks at the 1986 Toyota Supra, the dawn of the third-generation model, and the now-iconic 1991 Acura NSX.
Both reviews are interesting in their own way. These days you hear nary a negative word about the original NSX, but MotorWeek isn't afraid to point out a few flaws. And the Supra really shows the progress of suspension tuning in the intervening decades because it has some serious body roll in the corners. Scroll down to check out both videos and get a blast from the automotive past.
Next-gen Toyota Tacoma to debut at Detroit Auto Show
Thu, Dec 4 2014Toyota's confirmation comes on the heels of General Motors' successful launch of its own midsize pickups. The next generation of the Toyota Tacoma pickup truck will be revealed in January at the Detroit Auto Show, a top executive confirmed Thursday. Bob Carter, senior vice president of automotive operations for Toyota, offered no other details, but the new version of the pickup is expected to have significant upgrades compared with the aging model on sale now. Our spy shooters caught a prototype testing this summer, and rumors of the new generation have been swirling for months. We've also previously reported that Toyota is planning to ramp up production next April at a factory in Mexico that builds the Tacoma. Toyota's confirmation comes on the heels of General Motors' successful launch of its own midsize pickups, the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, which have garnered awards, positive reviews and solid sales since they arrived in showrooms this fall. It's unclear how large the new Tacoma will be, especially considering that the Canyon and Colorado flirt with fullsize territory. The Tacoma was last updated in 2012, and the segment has changed dramatically since then with the addition of the GM trucks. Another Tacoma competitor, Honda's aging Ridgeline, is also expected to re-launch in 2015, which would leave the Nissan Frontier as the oldest truck in the field. Tacoma sales have slipped 4.1 percent to 140,757 units this year, though they posted a 3.3-percent gain in November. Meanwhile, Carter also said Lexus will reveal two performance vehicles, though he didn't elaborate. "I'll leave it at that, but I promise you'll enjoy it," he said coyly. Lexus just showed the LF-C2 convertible concept at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
