I hope all my followers will take note, and follow my Land Cruiser restorations, collection, photographs and sales to ICON40 in the future. I will maintain and sell from ICONTOYS, but will phase out this ID in the future. I would also like to mention that ICONTOYS/ICON40 could potentially be FOR SALE and SOLD to the right individual.

Thanks, and happy bidding, Pete A couple of Past buyer emails: Dear Peter, The Fj40 arrived last Wednesday night and was more than promised! I am delighted, it' a step back in a time capsule to the year before I got married. I really have to admit, I had some trepidation to invest what I did and then wire a large amount of money to a bank account in Montana, sight unseen, but all my fears were unnecessary, because all was carried out as promised by you. You were honest and professional, and I feel like I now have a "friend" in Montana! I also appreciated the way you followed up after the sale with me to make sure you answered any questions and that I was satisfied. I am glad to give you a strong and well deserved recommendation. All the best, Jose P. I just wanted to thank you for all the work you put into getting me my FJ40 on time. I can honestly say that, at the beginning of the process, I was a little nervous making such a large purchase over the Internet and through phone calls. In the end, it turned out great and I love my new truck. I really appreciate all of the communication through the build; the email, the phone calls and the pictures. It not only made things easy to schedule, it gave me a real sense for the quality you build into your restorations. I am also impressed with all of the documentation you provided in that it made crossing the border and registering the vehicle hassle free; well, as hassle free as that process can get. Please feel free to use me as a reference for future clients. The last 7 photographs are "photographs for sale" not the rigs....they now belong to new owners. |

Here's the 2017 Toyota 86: Don't call it a Scion
Fri, Feb 5 2016After we heard the bells toll for Scion yesterday, we told you that the Scion FR-S will transform into a Toyota. That's right: just a rebadging. The practical question is, which badge? The philosophical question, which we can't answer yet, is where it'll sit in the pantheon of front-engined, rear-drive Toyota sports cars, of which the Supra was the last one to visit our shores, from 1992 until 1998 in its fourth generation. And as if summoned by this conversation, this camouflaged prototype appeared. Our best guess is that this is going to be the US-bound, Toyota-badged version of the Subaru BRZ and all the other 86-badged variants: the Toyota 86 (in Asia, Australia, New Zealand, South America, and South Africa), Toyota GT86 (in Europe and New Zealand again), and Toyota FT86 (in Nicaragua and Jamaica). For simplicity's sake, let's call it a Toyota 86. Peer into the 86's swirly camo, and it looks like the car is going in for a light refresh. The lower intake in the front fascia, if it's representative of a production part, adopts a different shape and is considerably wider and narrower than either the BRZ or FR-S units. It also appears that the turn signal and its surround are reshaped, different than any of the current variants. Changes out back appear mild. The area around the license plate seems to be smoother, and there is likely a predictable light restyle of the bumper skin and defuser under the camo. We don't expect a significant power increase, and certainly not a turbocharger (sorry!), but crossing fingers wouldn't do any harm. Related Video:
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.
Toyota launches new Pixis Epoch kei car in Japan
Sat, 12 May 2012Kei cars may be small in size, but they're big business in Japan. The latest arrival to the category is the little hatch you see above, the Toyota Pixis Epoch.
It's the fourth vehicle produced by the Daihatsu division but sold under the Toyota brand. As with other keis, power comes from a 660cc engine. It's mated to a continuously variable transmission driving either just the front wheels or all four. In both configurations, the Pixis Epoch features a stop-start system that helps its emissions and fuel efficiency figures come in well below even the Japanese government's stringent standards.
The whole package measures just 3,395 mm (133 inches) long, 1,475 mm (58 inches) wide and 1,500 mm (59 inches) tall, but offers a relatively spacious and utile interior, plus a tight turning radius of just 4.4 meters. Pricing ranges from 795,000 to 1.2 million yen - that's less than $10,000 (and no more than $15k). Further details in the press release after the jump.
