Reserve Lowered! 1970 Toyota Fj40 Landcruiser 70 Fj 40 V8 Conversion Clean on 2040-cars
Mountain Home, Arkansas, United States
|
Relisted with lowered reserve! 1970 FJ40 LANDCRUISER with an older Chevrolet 305 V8 conversion and 3 speed manual on the column. Rides, drives and stops like an original FJ40. Older paint job and typical rust areas, above rear bumper and rocker panels, were repaired but are starting to expose themselves again as shown in the pictures. Body is overall straight and floor plans and inner fenders are solid as well as the frame. Working heavy duty Ramsey winch.
Interior is clean, but apparently there was a sale on red velour which was used to cover the front seat - not that pretty, but in good shape. Rear jump seats are in black vinyl. Wipers work, rear heater works but the front heater isn't working and I haven't checked it out - maybe just a short. Turn signal lever is broke but brake lights and headlights work fine. Tow bar included. I have driven this vehicle quite a bit with no problems. Tires are older and showing their age and although the engine runs smooth it is probably due for a tune up and new exhaust. Lower spare tire hinge has been repaired from what appears to a previous break. Although this is one of the cleaner unrestored FJs that I have seen in a while, please keep in mind that this vehicle is over 40 years old so if you don't know much about them please understand that they drive, shift, ride and handle much differently than newer SUVs. However, this thing is a blast to drive and gets lots of looks. Please look at the pictures and ask any questions that you might have and I'll do my best to answer them. Sorry the pics are sideways - they were loaded from my phone. Thanks for looking! |

Toyota recalls another 2.9 million vehicles over Takata airbags

2014 Toyota Tundra Platinum 4x4
Wed, 26 Feb 2014The Toyota Tundra is the automotive version of off-brand Cheerios: it doesn't dominate the market, and it's not the first model people think of when they hear the term "pickup truck."
Ford, General Motors and Ram dominate the segment with vehicles that offer ridiculous levels of towing and payload capacities and models loaded with luxury items and primed with tech-rich engines. The off-brands, meanwhile, are led by the Tundra, which while still accounting for six-figure sales (112,732 units in 2013, up from 101,621 in 2012), sits well behind the F-150s and Silverados of the world. After our first drive of the revamped 2014 Tundra, we came away thinking this truck is a total underachiever, aimed at placating Toyota loyalists and doing little to win over new customers.
But everybody deserves a second chance, and we thought a week's drive in a different environment might lead to a different - or at least a more fully realized - opinion. While the Tundra might not be an industry leader, it still makes it on many truck buyers' shopping lists. So, should you consider this off-brand pickup truck? To find out, we borrowed a top-of-the-line Tundra Platinum for a week. Read on to see what we found.
Toyota Camry re-earns CR 'Recommended' rating following crash tests
Thu, 19 Dec 2013All is right again in the Toyota kingdom. The Japanese manufacturer's bread-and-butter sedan, the Camry, has been put back on Consumer Reports' "Recommended" vehicle list, following improved performance in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's crash testing.
You'll recall that the 2012 and 2013 Camry were infamously booted from the list due to "Poor" ratings in IIHS' notoriously tough small-overlap crash testing. Toyota vowed - just last week actually - to fix the ratings. As the Toyota brand's head, Bill Fay, said last week, "It's still a five-star car. It still does very well in all the IIHS tests. It did not in [the small overlap frontal crash test], and we're busy making the necessary adjustments so that we can address that."
Now, though, those redesigned cars have been tested, earning an "Acceptable" rating in the overlap testing. According to Consumer Reports, Camrys built from November 2013 on feature new internal structures that improve the car's crash test scores enough to make it a "Recommended" buy. IIHS has also elevated the car back to a position in its Top Safety Pick category, although it falls short of the new gold standard, the Top Safety Pick + rating.
