Thanks for the interest in my 1988 Landcruiser. For more information and pictures of this, or any other car/truck/Rover/diesel engine kit I have available, please type 'laughs and lashings' into a Google search, and my site will be the first page to come up. Give it a browse, and if you mention you saw this there, I'll knock $200 off your winning bid. I have a shop/ warehouse in Portland, Oregon and I import cool old diesel Land Rovers and other unusual cars from England as well as diesel engines for diesel conversions here. I recently went to the UK to buy stock/ a couple vehicles to send back to myself and this LandCruiser was one of the trucks that I have imported. TRUCK IS HERE AT MY SHOP IN PORTLAND, OREGON NOW.

    BEFORE YOU BID,   I ask that you read the entire ad, and by bidding on this truck you agree to all the terms and conditions I have described here.   If you bid, you agree to pay a $1000 deposit at the conclusion of this auction, and pay the balance owed within 5 days, no exceptions (unless you make other arrangements with me before bidding) .     If you can not collect in person but choose to have it transported, the truck must be paid in full before it leaves my possession.   I just took the truck to DMV and submitted all paperwork, the title will be mailed to me within 30 days.     If you have less than 10 feedback, you must contact me before bidding with your contact information like phone # or email address so I can contact you, otherwise I will have to retract your bid.   Sorry, but too many people with zero feedback have bid, won, and then disappeared and this is a very frustrating waste of time and money.    Thank you for understanding.   If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me here to discuss.   I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION AT ANY TIME For a local sale. The truck is for sale here, too - and I can pull the auction at any time. If you are serious about buying this I suggest you buy it now, and contact me to discuss. Now, onto the truck!

The truck is a 1988 Short Wheelbase turbo-diesel LJ70 . VIN# is JT1V0LJ7009031811, which the ebay robot does not seem to recognize as it is a non-US VIN#, so I was forced to enter '1980' as model year, but it IS A 1988!   It has low miles (128K) Has only 70K on its engine (Was replaced with a rebuilt @ 50K) , and it starts, runs, drives and stops as it should. It is plenty zippy and returns about 32MPG on a run, and 25-28 in town. Has Toyota 2L-T turbo-diesel engine. Has all the looks and feel of late 1980s ' Hi Tech' Toyota fare - You will recognize the switches, seats and looks. Yes, it is RHD - Amusing for a while, but you will probably find, like me, you always walk up to the wrong side of the truck to get in.

Only problems with the truck are that the wipers are running off of a separate switch (I can fix this for you easily enough) , and the power steering has a leaky hose (I can also fix this once here for you). Fuel gauge is inaccurate below a half-tank (Can also fix!) - That is it. Otherwise truck has been in daily use until I bought it.

The truck looks very good, is very solid. It does have a rust spot on one corner of the sunroof- please see the photos. There are a couple other small spots of surface rust to address if you want the truck to be perfect. THE FRAME IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT however, and there is none of the usual door rust/ inner fender problems/ etc,   truck is totally solid except for the areas mentioned. This truck was never available in the USA, and only just became eligible to import. It is all stock, and looks and runs great. If you are reading this ad, I assume you know what this is, and how rare it is to find one.

Truck has a clear Oregon title with 'diesel' indicated as fuel type. Guaranteed.   Will be able to register/ title and drive legally in all 50 states.

   There is a small tear in the driver's seat, as pictured.   Drivers side front fender flare has a smallish crack/hole in it (fiberglass- see photos please), and there are a few small stone chips on the front and in the back which have small spots of surface rust showing. Passenger side rear flare has a spot where a strap rubbed on the way here in the container. Easy to sand and paint, over all very nice-- headliner is perfect, tires are good. Sunroof works perfectly and does not leak. Drives very well!    Paint is original to the truck as is interior and mechanical layout, although engine is a lower-mileage fresh replacement.

    The last one of these I had at the beginning of the Summer sold quickly for 12000 dollars, I expect to get something close to that for this truck.   My other one was an automatic, and I would imagine the 5-speed to be more desirable.

Due to the mind-boggling amount of net bots, aspiring scam artists and people who just want to chat about cars, I ask that if you are interested in this truck (or any of the others I am selling) that you please include your phone # in your message to me, and compose a intelligent, polite and brief email. Emails like "Is it available?" or "I'll take it, call me" will be ignored. I also ask that you only contact me/ bid if you are genuinely interested in buying a truck, have your finances in order, have your wife's permission, and can be polite and courteous.   You are welcome to call me at 503-810-4713 to discuss.

Please check my other auctions for more vehicles I am selling like the Range Rover LWB Turbo diesel, 1976 Land Rover FC101 Forward Control, and 1999 Discovery 1 300tdi/ automatic conversion. Always looking for a nice Citroen, too - If you have one you would like to do some trading with I would give credit towards this truck...

Thank you in advance -

Five automakers now being investigated by NHTSA for airbag woes

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

It appears that Toyota's renotification to owners of recalled vehicles from last year is just the tip of the iceberg for what could potentially be a much larger industry-wide recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation investigation into roughly 1.1 million vehicles from Chrysler, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Toyota and parts supplier Takata regarding faulty airbag inflators in several models.
NHTSA has received six reports - three directly, two from Takata and one from Toyota - of vehicles with ruptured airbag inflators from 2002-2006, which resulted in three injuries. So far, all six incidents have occurred in high humidity areas like Florida and Puerto Rico. According to Toyota's latest recall announcement, the inflators may have an improper propellant that could cause it to rupture in a crash and the bag to deploy abnormally.
This new investigation follows a previous recall from April 2013 of about 3.4 million vehicles worldwide for the airbag inflators from Takata. As Autoblog reported, Toyota jumpstarted the new situation when it found that the original list of serial numbers for the faulty part was incomplete and discovered more cars in need of replacement. Honda and Nissan told us that they were investigating whether further models would need called in again as well. Mazda told Autoblog: "Regarding the current Takata situation, we're working closely with NHTSA and investigating the situation, but nothing else to report at this time." Chrysler Group responded to us with the statement: "Chrysler Group engineers are conducting the appropriate analysis. The Company will cooperate fully with the National Highway Traffic Administration."

Toyota recalls 4,000 Tacoma pickups over valve springs

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

When you build as many cars and trucks as Toyota does, you're bound to run into the occasional recall. In the past month alone, the Japanese auto giant has recalled over 800,000 Camry, Avalon and Venza models over problems with the air-conditioning units, and 10,000 more before that over windshield wiper issues. Now Toyota has issued another recall notice, but this time for far fewer vehicles.
The recall revolves around the engine valve springs in the 2013 and 2014 Tacoma, specifically those fitted with the standard 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine and not the optional 4.0-liter V6. The issue is that the valve springs are prone to cracking and breaking over time, and results from improper maintenance of the manufacturing equipment used by one of the two suppliers that outfit Toyota with the components in question.
All told, some 4,000 vehicles will be subject to the voluntary recall, the owners of which will receive notice by mail. If you think that could be you and want to get a jump on the problem, you can read the announcement below and call Toyota yourself.

Toyota FCV rallies to the hydrogen cause as zero car

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

It's been two decades since Toyota dominated the World Rally Championship with its Celica Turbo 4WD. But this past weekend, Toyota hit the rally stage in a very different vehicle.
That, as you can see, is the Japanese automaker's Fuel Cell Vehicle (FCV), which is still in its prototype phase. We're still at least half a year away from seeing the FCV in production trim, but the model has already been pressed into duty as the "zero car" at the Shinshiro Rally, the last round of the Japanese Rally Championship.
The zero car, for those unfamiliar, is to rally what a pace or safety car is to circuit racing, driving the rally stage to check for signs of trouble before the competitors put their feet to the floor, so it's not as if the FCV needed extensive modifications. From the looks of things, it just needed some jazzy stripes, mud flaps, probably different rolling stock and an interior with racing buckets and harnesses, roll cage, radio equipment and maybe a bit more ground clearance.
