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.

Scion FR-S Convertible (in Toyota GT86 form) spied in South Africa

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

Though the eventual existence of a convertible version of the Toyota GT86 (and its Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ versions for America) is a no-brainer, we've yet to get a glimpse of the real-deal car until now.
Spotted in Cape Town, South Africa, of all places, this completely undisguised GT86 convertible seems to be in a remarkably advanced state of development. The image seen here was obviously sniped from quite a distance and without the aid of a powerful lens, but we can still make out a production-ready looking piece of rear bodywork for the convertible top to hide away in, as well as a functioning trunk lid. It's hard to make out with any certainty, based on this evidence, but there does seem to be space retained behind the front seats for two, small rear chairs.
With the first car spotted, we'd expect to seem some more and better images of it flow through in the near future, and if not, Toyota has already confirmed a concept version for next month's Geneva Motor Show, dubbed FT-86 Open, so stay tuned. For now, click through to the FT86Club.com forum to have a slightly closer look at the images.

Toyota engineer warns automous cars could increase fuel use, urban sprawl

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

An increasing number of people are starting to consider the potential downsides of a transition to autonomous cars. The FBI is already looking at them for the potential ill effects on law enforcement, and a scientist for Toyota is raising the possibility that driverless vehicles could actually be detrimental to the environment over the long term.
Ken Laberteaux, who studies future transportation for Toyota, thinks that autonomous cars could lead to more pollution, not less, says Bloomberg. However, Laberteaux's theory isn't so much based purely on science as it is considering behavioral and historical trends. "US history shows that anytime you make driving easier, there seems to be this inexhaustible desire to live further from things," said Laberteaux during a presentation at the Automated Vehicles Symposium in San Francisco, CA, cited by Bloomberg.
Laberteaux's belief is that if commuters can make their drives easier, then they will be more willing to live farther away from the cities where they work. The end result would be more urban sprawl and increased pollution from the longer travel times.

Toyota's production fuel cell car to cost between $50-100k

Fri, 03 May 2013


While the cost of building a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle continues to go down over time, reports over the last few years have steadily maintained that the first Toyota hydrogen-powered vehicles for customers should ring up for around $50,000. Company officials cited this figure way back in 2010, and have reiterated it in subsequent years.
So, while a recent Automotive News report about the cost of Toyota's 2015 Hydrogen car doesn't offer up any new figures, it does offer an interesting pricing wrinkle. According to the report, the "cost factor" for the hydrogen vehicles will be in the $50k ballpark, meaning the retail price could be anywhere from there, up to as much as around $100,000.
