This did not sell the first time around but had a ton of interest. Since I don't see any other FJ45"s on the auction right now I'll give it one more try. I have lowered the reserve but please don't ask. I do reserve the right to end the auction early.
Well my friends didn't think I would get rid of this but I don't use it enough to warrant keeping it. I bought this 4 years ago with the intention of adding lockers and heading for the Rubicon trail (my back yard) but this is to nice for me to slam into a rock so here we are.
I bought this from Scott at Eco Off Road, it was his daily driver. He had just finished a short bed with a B3.3 and a 5 speed. He had Proffit cruisers install the rebuilt axles, Cummins B3.3 (crate motor) and the TH475 automatic transmission some time around 2005. It has later model fine spline axles with 3.73 gears, power brakes with front disc, Saginaw power steering, Toyota split transfer case, and 2.5" lift.
I added the Warn 8274 last year ($1500.00) and 5 new tires (33's). Spare wheel not an exact match of what's on truck but close enough. I also have pipe doors that go with the truck (great when you take the top off). New battery last week. Tool box lid is dented and key is broken off in lock so it stays locked all the time and I use a screwdriver to unlock. High lift jack stays with truck.
Truck was originally red and someone did a great job on the green paint. Some body filler in a couple of spots if you get out a magnet but not much and great for the age of the truck. Some places are a little faded but some wax will brighten it up. Drivers door has a hole cut on the inside to help get lower hinge bolts out. The original metal holder that held the nuts had rusted away. One bolt is broken off on the passenger door lower hinge. Wipers work but need replaced and the arm on the passenger side does not match correctly. Both door vents have been sealed closed since I bought it and the drivers door is missing the hardware. Heater box and hoses are rough but work well enough for California for I was planning to add vintage air some day.
Less than 10,000 miles on the motor (new crate) since installed. I do not have any idea of original mileage on the truck it's self.
If I was going to keep it I would get the fuel tank sealed. When filled up the seams get wet. No big deal because I use it so little so I have not done it. Both seats need repair or recovered at sometime also. I have not checked but I do not think it has a thermostat in it. Runs between 160 and 180 degrees on the flat with the electric fan off. On a long hill temp may rise to a little over 200 degrees before the fan kicks in then the temp goes down as you are going up hill. Great cooling system, aluminum radiator with dual fans. If I lived in a cooler area I would add the thermostat.
Glass has no cracks but there are some scratches. Windows roll up and down a little stiff.
Will cruise 65 all day long but will only get around 20mpg at that speed. I get 22 to 24 mpg cruising around town.
I can send more pictures and take some more if needed.
Currently registered in California and is available for inspections. Please come take a look.
Bidders with less than 5 feedback please contact me before you bid or it will be removed.
Call 530/401-3552, text or email with any questions.
It runs great, drives great and will last somebody a very long time. This is not a trailer queen or a gussied up import just a great all around truck.
Just realized that cruiser fest is next month. If the buyer is interested after payment I can keep the FJ at my house and if you fly into Sacramento I'll pick you up take you to your truck so you can head to cruiser fest.
Had a couple of people ask about the stereo system. None, I find that singing is better for the soul. Dash is uncut, holes where old 4 wheel drive handle was and misc. from factory. Good places for toggles for added accessories in the future. Went to town this morning and remembered that the emergency brake is hooked up but needs adjustment. Right now it won't hold do-do.
Truck now shows 9750 miles as of 8/10/13.

2015 Toyota Prius C is still colorful, still gets 53 mpg
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Few vehicles can match the affordable fuel economy of the $19,000, 53-mile-per-gallon Toyota Prius C, and that fact isn't likely to change for 2015, as the Japanese company has issued a moderate refresh of its sub-compact hybrid.
As mid-cycle refreshes go, this is a pretty standard affair, with a larger grille and tweaked LED headlights at the front of the Prius C, and more expressive taillights at the back. Toyota made some minor changes in the cabin, updating materials throughout, but not fiddling too much with the overall level of equipment.
Aside from those modest changes, this is the same fuel-efficient five-door, retaining its 1.5-liter, 73-horsepower, 82-pound-foot four-cylinder, while an electric motor tosses in an extra 26 ponies, for a total system output of 99 horsepower. Along with the 53-mpg highway rating, the C will return 46 mpg in the city.
Toyota Prius sets a different kind of Nurburgring lap record [w/video]
Tue, 15 Jul 2014Scroll down the leaderboards of Nürburgring lap times and you'll see mostly racing cars, supercars and sports cars. Delve deep enough and you'll eventually get to hatchbacks and sedans, albeit the most performance-focused of their kind. But a hybrid? Sure, the Porsche 918 Spyder posted the top time for a street-legal series production car, and it's technically a hybrid, but we're talking about another kind of hybrid here. We're talking about a Toyota Prius.
That's right: the Prius just set a lap record around the Nordschleife. But it wasn't for the lap time. In fact, miles per hour barely factored in (except for staying above the minimum 37-mph average speed mandated on the vaunted racing circuit). No, this was about miles per gallon.
Toyota took one of its Prius Plug-In hybrids to the Nürburgring, topped up the battery, put on a set of low-rolling-resistance tires and put automotive journalist Joe Clifford behind the wheel with a mandate to use as little fuel as possible. After one second shy of 21 minutes, the Prius completed its lap having used just five tablespoons of fuel.
Toyota issues stop sale on 6 key models over seat fabrics; recall possible? [UPDATE]
Thu, 30 Jan 2014Toyota has issued a stop-sale order on six of its core models due to concerns about the flammability of certain seat fabrics. The issue rests not with the cloth and leather covers themselves, but with a piece of seat heater beneath them that fails to meet US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for flame retardancy.
There have been no reports of fires or injuries from the affected cars, which include some of Toyota's biggest volume sellers. 2013 and 2014 Camry, Camry Hybrid, Avalon and Sienna models equipped with heated seats are included in the stop-sale, as are 2014 Tundra pickups and Corolla sedans. The exact number of vehicles with the non-compliant materials are still being tabulated, according to The Detroit Free Press.
According to a Toyota spokesman, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been notified, although it remains to be seen if a recall will be issued. Outside of a full recall, though, it's unclear how Toyota will deal with vehicles equipped with the flammable materials that have already found homes.
