Full frame off restoration that is not finished yet. This was an AZ truck. Re-built 3FE Conversion, Front Discs, 4 Speed Transmission with re-built 3 speed Transfer Case. All Mechanical was done by a Toyota Master Mechanic.

Pros: full frame off resto, freeborn red, rino lined black inside, hell for stout leveler spring lift, gauges, knobs, steering wheel, windshield wiper, seats all restored, New OCD black soft top, new real steel bows painted black, later model rollbar installed, front disc brakes from a 60 refurbished and installed, rebuilt( by man a fre ) 3fe with all new sensors injectors etc with about 4000 miles on since rebuild, all new tie rod ends installed, 4 speed transmission with re-built 3 speed transfer case installed, harness wiring all inspected rewrapped and repaired before installing, all new light fixtures and all work, new agm battery, 5 new imported 16' split rims with new Hercules bias ply's installed, 3 hard doors that need work but little rust, Long rear seats that need resoration, curisreparts 3fe conversion harness all installed with relays, original 3fe engine harness all installed, in the process of installing charcoal canister on frame, 4 speed transfer linkage is being cleaned up and restored, new clutch, re-built brake booster, new fuel tank, new oem front bumper,new windshield and new stainless bolts throughout.

Cons: PO did use some bondo on the rear quarters but no sign of rust under the bondo - I think they just wanted to make it all nice and smooth. The few holes that I drilled to install the rear barn doors yielded no rust. Barn doors are lined up about a 1/4 inch off - I have tried to fix but can't- I think again that the PO installed a new rear seal too high which affected the barn doors and also the spare tire latch. Some scratches that occurred during install of parts.

It needs brake master, clutch master and slave, clutch fork and bearing installed brake lines and fuel lines, fuel pump and pre-pump filter, lines for fuel separator and fuel return installed on the fuel tank, drive lines shorted and lengthened and radiator and fan shroud installed to get running. It's real close to being running and a great rig.

Clear New Mexico Title. I started the restoration while I lived in NM.

Toyota Prius sales could come up short in 2013

Sat, 06 Jul 2013

A Toyota executive has said that the automaker's hybrid Prius model may not reach its 2013 goal of selling 250,000 units in the US marketplace. Bill Fay, group vice president for Toyota's US sales, told Reuters, "The 240,000 to 250,000 range is kind of where we're settling our sights for the Prius family."
The first-generation Prius, a five-passenger model, was introduced to the States in 2001 (its arrival made it the second mass-produced hybrid, after the two-seat Honda Insight). The second-generation model arrived in 2004, followed by the current third-generation design that arrived for the 2010 model year. The automaker has subsequently added the Prius V, a hatchback wagon (shown above) and the Prius C, a subcompact hatchback. As of March, 2013, cumulative worldwide sales of the Prius had reached 3.67 million units.
Last year, Toyota sold 236,659 Prius models in the US. However, sales of the model have fallen 5.1 percent in the first six months of 2013. In response, the automaker has boosted its marketing for the model, and the promotions are expected to continue through at least July.

Honda Civic losing ground to Toyota Corolla, sales crown threatened

Wed, Dec 17 2014

Oh, what a difference a year has made. When the numbers were tallied for 2013, the Honda Civic was riding high by claiming its segment's sales crown in the US despite being challenged by the latest generation of the Toyota Corolla for part of the year. However, with just a month to go in the battle for C-segment supremacy in 2014, it looks like Toyota gets to hoist the trophy this time. Looking at November sales numbers, Honda moved 300,644 Civics through the first 11 months of the year, down 2.1 percent in volume. Furthermore, for the month alone, the company sold 23,060 Civics, a 12.3 percent drop. Meanwhile, on Toyota's side, business has been booming comparatively. Through the first 11 months it sold 309,373 Corollas, a 10.6 percent jump, and for November alone it moved 25,609 examples, a 14.2 percent improvement. With fewer than 10,000 cars between them, it would take quite a December slump for the Corolla to lose this fight. According to The Truth About Cars, the Civic actually started out the 2014 somewhat positively with 5 percent growth over the previous year, though still behind the Corolla's figures. However, the Honda has seen a slide since then with five consecutive months of sales drops. Meanwhile, the Toyota has generally kept showing growth. Being the newer model of the two, the Corolla comes to this fight with an advantage. Honda hasn't let the Civic languish; it gave the model a CVT in 2014 to boost fuel economy. That's nothing like the Toyota's thorough recent rethink, though. According to TTAC, Honda does have reason to crow about the Civic, just not necessarily in the US. The model is on track to be the bestselling vehicle in Canada for the 17th consecutive year and have its best sales since 2008 there.

Toyota brings TRD Griffon GT86 to Goodwood [w/video]

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

In the midst of the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed, there's a particularly special Toyota running up the hill. This special entry is a GT86 (the cousin to our Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ) that's been poked, prodded, and tweaked by the minds at Toyota Racing Development. The result of TRD's fettling is a nearly race-ready car.
Starting with the body, the hood, doors, trunk lid, and wings are all made of carbon fiber. The lightweight treatment doesn't end there, though. The bumpers, fenders, and diffuser all feature carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic, while the windows are now made of polycarbonate plastic.
Under the hood sits the same 2.0-liter boxer engine found in the standard GT86, but its six-speed manual gearbox features a shorter final drive ratio for improved acceleration. The coilover suspension has been firmed up, and a TRD mechanical limited-slip differential replaces the Torsen unit. The TRD Griffon rides on TWS 18-inch wheels and Yokohama Advan tires. To bring proceedings to a stop, TRD has fitted its own mono-block caliper kit, complete with more robust racing pads.
