Please Read Carefully:

Up for auction in this listing is a completely customized, total frame off, every nut and bolt, and extremely detailed, restoration!   A restoration to a level “above and beyond” most restorations you’ll ever see.  It is important to understand, the FJ40 shown, is not the one for sale in this listing.  It is only a representation of what’s being offered. 


Please read on:

Hemming’s Motor News, the April 2014 issue, predicted a “sharp rise in Toyota FJ40 values for 2014”. It also mentions the FJ40 as being one of the top investment values you’ll find.  Imagine if you could purchase one of these FJ40’s, have every inch of it showroom condition,  -and-  with all your favorite options.  An absolute show stopper!! That’s exactly what I’m offering in this listing. A custom built Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 to your specifications.  

**********************************************************************************************************

I’ll start with a straight and totally rust free FJ40 in great condition. From there, I'll completely disassemble every nut and bolt, have the frame and parts sandblasted, frame powder coated, and then begin the build according to your own blueprints. Absolutely no short cuts!  Obviously, this is not something that can be completed overnight. It will take approximately 8 - 12 months, depending on the options you choose. In most cases, I’ve been able to finish my projects much sooner. It’s tough to give an accurate completion time until I know exactly what the build is to include.  Either way, it’s not an FJ40 you’ll purchase that’s put together to what someone else liked. It will be an FJ40 built to what you wanted!  Huge difference, and in my opinion, well worth a few months wait. 


Keep Reading:

The photos in this listing are of an FJ40 I sold here on Ebay a few months ago using this same exact format and as I'm offering here, it was built to the purchasers chosen specifications. He made the choices, the decisions, he chose the accessories, and he’s enjoying his FJ40 knowing it’s exactly what he wanted. The exterior color, lift, custom tires and wheels, four wheel disc brakes, high performance V8, automatic transmission, all power leather interior, three point belts, the newest digital gauges available, air conditioning, awesome stereo system, 9500 lb thermo-protected winch, all polished stainless hardware, family roll cage, custom half doors, hard top and full doors, all tinted windows, and on, and on, and on.  These were the choices this buyer made. Your choices might be different, however, the photos should give you a good example of the quality work you can expect, no matter what options you decide.

*****************************************************************************************************

I also have a link of over 150 photos showing this entire build from start to finish. That link will show you in great detail the quality  and time invested.

This is an auction.

It does not have a "buy it now" price.  It does have a reserve price not shown. I won't tell you what that reserve is, however, I will let you know it's very high for good reason. I don't do this for a living and don't make a lot of money doing it. I've simply been playing with FJ40's since I bought my first in 1973. It's a passion and a love that keeps me restoring these awesome vehicles.

At the same time, I do need to cover my expenses and building an FJ40 to the level I'm offering is costly. As an example, I have over $60,000 in receipts alone for the white FJ40 shown. It is as mentioned above, literally a new cruiser!

******************************************************************************************************

I'll require 50% down payment and the balance upon delivery. If the restoration isn't exactly what you want when it's finished, I’ll give your money back. No questions asked!  Please don't hesitate to ask any questions if you're interested.

Judge halts Toyota unintended acceleration cases, triggers time for settlement negotiations

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

So far, the lawsuits brought forth against Toyota for unintended acceleration have gone both ways: the automaker was found not at fault in a 2009 California crash and liable for a 2007 crash in Oklahoma. Both cases involved a Camry and resulted in fatalities. With a big chunk of these UA cases (around 200) set to his the docket of US District Judge James V. Selna in Santa Ana, California, Bloomberg is reporting that the judge has halted the lawsuits until March after Toyota and its lawyers have had extra time to try and settle the cases.
According to the article, Toyota is looking to take care of the cases out of court with an "intensive settlement process." Having already paid out $1.6 billion in "economic loss" suits, this latest settlement process is aimed at the wrongful death and personal injury cases allegedly associated with unintended acceleration. A hearing for the settlements will be held on January 14 with conferences on the matter commencing in February. There is no word as to when lawsuits may start back up if settlements can't be agreed upon.

New version of Toyota FT-1 Concept gets racy for Gran Turismo 6

Thu, 07 Aug 2014

Gran Turismo 6 has been the preferred marketing springboard for quite a few brands and concept cars since its debut last winter. Specifically the GT Vision concept idea - allowing manufacturers a built-in place to offer up new, original, drivable content - has enticed the likes of Mercedes, Nissan, Volkswagen, Toyota and more to dream big on the digital stage before pulling the sheets back on real concept cars.
In fact, Toyota teamed its live reveal of the FT-1 Concept at the Detroit Auto Show with an in-game launch of the car, just this past January. Looking for a second bite at the GT6 apple, Toyota has just released a teaser video for a new, FT-1 Vision GT version of the same concept.
The company isn't giving us much to go on save for the 30-second video, saying only that the concept was penned by Toyota's Calty Design Research team in California, and that it will "soon be available for download." By the looks of it, the new FT-1 seems to be more of a racecar than the original, without obvious changes to the basic form. No word on whether or not there's a physical concept car in the offing at a yet-to-be-named auto show. Stay tuned.
