Toyota Landcruiser Fj45lv Fj40 Fj45 Troopcarrier Lwb No Reserve!!!!! on 2040-cars
San Diego, California, United States
Hello I have a 1965 TOYOTA LANDCRUISER FJ45LV for sale. The FJ45LV version is one of the rarest Landcruisers ever made. The IH8MUD.com FJ45LV registry has less than a hundred of these trucks accounted for. The few that have been professionally restored and gone on the market have sold for as much as 82500$. (check http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=1556&aid=283 If youre looking to build a vintage Landcruiser and want something that will stand out more than the common FJ40 have a look. Its going to take time and effort to correctly restore this truck but the restored value of the truck will be well worth the investment. This is the one to restore. The best part of this truck is that its an unmolested nearly complete truck as it was sold in 1965. Imagine how cool it would have been to see this truck sitting on a car lot brand new! It comes with a title. NO RESERVE Thanks Rich
The truck comes nearly complete, the only parts I saw missing were light lens, one of the seats, rearview mirror, rear emblem, couple broken window cranks, Comes with one original (at least that is what I was told) bench seat, not sure if it is the front or rear seat Comes with the heater that goes where the wiring breaker is in the center below the dash Comes with a original spare tire holder and original split rim All glass is there and in good shape The dash is in really good condition I have found no collision damage other than the hood has a dent The engine appears to be original and complete The truck has rust that needs to dealt with. The worst part is the front floor under the seats, the rear sill, and the rear lower quarter panels. The front part of the floor under seats will need to be replaced. I have found zero bondo, basically what you see is what you get. I pulled out the headliner and carpet to expose as much as possible. I have not tried to start the engine and am not going to try and start the engine. I dont know if it runs or not. I have a nice set of Landcruiser split rims with tires that I am willing to sell separately if the buyer wants them. Its located in sunny San Diego and you are welcome to stop by and have a look in person. I will help with loading the truck for shipping but the shipping details are the buyers responsibility please do not ask me how much it will cost to ship it to you. On Mar-03-14 at 23:10:42 PST, seller added the following information: I never see FJ45LV Landcruisers up for sale basically anywhere so I was shocked to see two other ones for sale on Ebay. I was really interested to see high the bidding would go but both guys closed their listings before the auction was completed. As a regular buyer on Ebay its really annoying when people pull their trucks early, especially when they have it advertised with no reserve price. Ive been getting offers to sell my truck outside of Ebay as well but Im not going to do that. Im going to let it ride til the end of the auction. So if youre genuinely interested throw in a bid... by the end of the week someone will be buying this FJ45LV. |

China's largest dealer body pushes back against foreign automakers over huge inventories
Mon, Jan 5 2015Do not think for a second that automakers forcing inventory on dealers in order to pad the numbers is a ruse known only in the US. Stories of individual brands have hinted at the trouble Chinese dealerships are having trying to move units as the country's economic growth remains hot but comes off the boil, like the one revealing that 95 percent of Toyota-FAW showrooms are losing money. Yet Toyota isn't the only culprit, and the issue has become so dire that the China Automobile Dealers Association (CADA), the largest dealer body in the country, has written to the government to complain. Chinese car sales are expected to close out the year with an annualized growth of six-percent, down from last year's 14 percent when targets were set, while in the background the pace of overall economic expansion is the slowest its been since the early nineties. Automakers, shipping cars on schedule to make their earlier targets, have blown up inventories such that they are an average of 1.8 times monthly sales, when the preferred multiplier is from 0.9 to 1.2. According to the CADA, the price wars and necessary incentives mean that only 30 percent of dealers are operating in the black. That number is down a whopping forty percent since 2010. In response, Toyota has already said it will not make its 2014 target of 1.1 million cars sold. We're a long way from 2012, when Toyota planned on selling 1.8 million cars in China in 2015, a target that's now as realistic as a manticore. BMW, Honda and Nissan have erased numbers on their spreadsheets, too; BMW growth dropped from 20 percent to 8 percent midyear after it began "reducing wholesale supplies," and Honda has been reworking its plans as sales have decreased each of the past six months. It's a big deal for Chinese dealers to begin protesting publicly, the CADA saying, "In the past, dealers were angry, but dared not speak out. But now, they have to shout because the situation is getting so unbearable." With six-percent growth forecast for next year and dealers unwilling to remain underwater, The Year of the Sheep coming in 2015 could portend meaning beyond the zodiac.

General Motors became second-largest US advertiser in 2013
Fri, 28 Mar 2014General Motors might be mired in several recalls, as well as the ongoing investigations from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Congress into the automaker's response to those recalls. However, the company can celebrate taking the title of the US' second-largest advertiser in 2013. According to Ad Week examining a recently released study, total advertising spending in the US posted its fourth consecutive year of rising expenditures with 0.9-percent growth to $140.2 billion. Of that, the auto industry spent $15.2 billion to promote its goods in 2013, up 3.8 percent.
The country's biggest advertiser was Procter and Gamble, which dropped $3.17 billion in 2013, an increase of 11.8 percent. GM became the nation's second largest promoter with $1.794 billion in spending, up 10 percent. The biggest proportion of that money went to sell Cadillac and GMC. AT&T barely lost out with $1.793 billion in advertising, 15.2 percent growth. The 10 businesses with the highest ad investments spent a cumulative $15.9 billion during the year, 6.6 percent higher than 2012. Toyota came in eighth place making it the only other automaker to rank in the top 10.
The study also indicates that there is a shift in advertising spending from television and print to the Internet. There was 15.7 percent more money outlaid to promote products online in 2013 than the previous year. In comparison, television dropped 0.1 percent, newspapers were down 3.7 percent and radio fell 5.6 percent.
Junkyard Gem: 2010 Pontiac Vibe
Wed, Apr 17 2024Just over a month before filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in June 2009, General Motors announced that the 83-year-old Pontiac Division would be "phased out" by the end of 2010. Only three Pontiac vehicles were sold as 2010 models in the United States: the Solstice, Vibe and G6 (new G3s were sold here during 2010 but they were all 2009 models, while the G5 was available as a 2010 model only in Canada and Mexico). Today's bit of junkyard automotive history is one of the very last Vibes ever built, found in a yard near Denver, Colorado. This car is significant not just as one of the final vehicles to bear Pontiac badges but also as one of the last cars built by the New United Motor Manufacturing Incorporated GM-Toyota joint venture in California, better known as NUMMI. The NUMMI factory began life as GM's Fremont Assembly, which built its first vehicle (a C-Series pickup) in 1963 and closed in 1982 after building its final vehicle (an Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera). Rebooted as NUMMI, the first 1985 Chevrolet Nova (an Americanized AE82 Toyota Corolla Sprinter) rolled off the line in December of 1984. A quarter-century and better than eight million vehicles hence, NUMMI shut down production after its last Corolla was finished on April 1, 2010. While there was some noise about the Oakland Athletics building a new stadium on the site at the time, Tesla ended up buying most of the site soon after that. Tesla now builds more vehicles per year there than NUMMI ever did. The Vibe was co-developed with Toyota and based on the same platform as the ninth-generation Corolla. The Toyota Matrix was mechanically identical and was built in Canada, while the Japanese-market version (known as the Toyota Voltz) was built on the same NUMMI line as the Vibe and shipped across the Pacific. The Vibe/Matrix/Voltz got a redesign for the 2009 model year, but few noticed due to all the turmoil in the GM world at the time. The final Vibe was built in August 2009. This car was built in July of 2009, just before the end. It was living in West Texas just prior to coming to Colorado. El Paso is about a ten-hour drive from this car's current location. Once in the Centennial State, it got parked somewhere it shouldn't have been and ended up being auctioned to Pick Your Part. An occupant of this Vibe had time to sample some of the local agricultural products before that happened.
