Very Original Example Fj-40 Landcruiser on 2040-cars
Saegertown, Pennsylvania, United States
VERY ORIGINAL
48,337 LOW MILES IN GREAT CONDITION. EVERYTHING IS IN TACT TO MAKE A SHOW TRUCK. I HAVE KEPT THIS TRUCK IN IT'S CURRENT CONDITION TO BE AN A+ DRIVER. I purchased this truck 6-7 years ago. The vehicle had been parked in a garage for some time and the previous owner was hoping to complete a body on restoration but ran out of funds. I purchased the truck for the condition of the body and rust free panels and the odometer reading of 45,000 miles at that time. prior to driving i did the following at my local Toyota dealer: * A.R.B. front bumper and Mile Marker winch * N.O.S. wheels, i had them powder coated * 2.5 inch O.M.E. LIFT with new shocks and i removed one leaf from each spring assembly to soften the ride the following are new parts installed prior to driving: radiator, thermostat, fuel pump, hoses, belts, all filters and under the hood hoses. calipers and wheel cylinders, N.O.S. muffler and tail pipe, battery, plugs, wires and all fluids. a set of B.F.G. T..K.O'S were installed and all fluids were replaced: brake, power steering, oil, transmission, transfer case, coolant and both differentials were drained and filled. At this time i drove the vehicle for approximately 200 miles and had the carburetor rebuilt with a Toyota rebuild kit, had the transmission and transfer case pulled and resealed, replaced the clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing, replaced the slave cylinder and one drive shaft u-joint. all items were done to bring the Land Cruiser to a "drive cross country" condition. over the next year or so, i replaced body screws and hardware with C.C.O.T. stainless and re-covered the rear jump seats. the oil has been changed annually and there has never been cause to add between changes. the vehicle has not had a concern with the use i have given it except for a leaking power steering box that i opted to replace rather than rebuild. the vehicle does not leak or drip and i keep it in my house garage year round. i had a radio and marine grade speaker installed about 3 years ago, using the C.B. port in the center console and the speakers i mounted in the rear corners of the cargo area attaching them to the roll bar (no cutting or drilling was done. the first two years of ownership i did have the top removed in summer months. I found and purchased a set of rust free half doors (used in the FJ's with a lift gate) I had them painted to match and used them when the top was off. they are included in this sale (paid 700.00 for them prior to painting). i also purchased the vinyl half doors and they are included too. anything during ownership that the vehicle has needed it got. i would feel very confident driving just about anywhere. I have never taken this vehicle off road or driven in inclement weather. i have been very careful to maintain it's original condition with the replacement of parts with Toyota products. all gauges, lights and features work just as designed. the wipers park correctly and have all ranges of use, the blower motor works as it should in all positions. I am happy to answer any additional questions and would like to have them listed on the Q&A section on the auction page to give the same information to bidders. My decision to sell is strictly due to a lack of time for use. I have several other interests and am looking to make additional room. the vehicle is in great condition but due to the age i will sell as-is with no warranty. I have candidly and fairly represented the vehicle. I am selling on my personal account (limited activity) but my retail store has hundreds of transactions with 100% buyer rating so bid with confidence and this will be verified with serious bidders. The reserve is realistic and set to sell. Transportation is the responsibility o f the buyer. The winning bidder will be required to make a pay pal deposit of 1,000.00 within 24 hours of auction close and the remaining funds can be cash in person or a cashiers check. All forms of payment will need to clear before i release the vehicle. I would ask that the winning bidder make contact within 48 hours of auction close. thanks and good luck |

Lexus planning a hydrogen fuel-cell LS by 2017
Sun, Jan 4 2015Toyota's Fuel Cell System will certainly migrate to other vehicles in the carmaker's lineup, but Australian car site Motoring reports that one of the models at the head of the queue is the Lexus LS. According to its sources, the executive barge powered by hydrogen will be released by 2017 and take the top spot in the range, rolling in above the LS Hybrid. We're told that Toyota engineers will find a way to slide two hydrogen tanks into its bodywork with the same general setup as on the Mirai – one under the rear seats and another under the rear parcel shelf. The 150-kW fuel cell stack will be placed under the front seats. Motoring says the resulting sedan and its 220-kW electric motor would come in "at around 2,100 kg," which is 4,620 pounds; that's a ginormous 539 pounds less than the listed curb weight of the current LS Hybrid, and 387 pounds more than the standard LS. Assuming all goes as planned, it would have a range of roughly 238 miles, a few dozens less than the Mirai's range of about 300 miles. It would look slightly different, too, the front end getting larger intakes to cool the power unit. It wouldn't surprise us if Lexus does have a hydrogen LS planned – it would be a statement car, and the company likes making statements, even if few heed them; it has stuck with its LS 600h for the past seven years, yet of the 7,539 LS models sold through the end of November this year, only 61 of them were hybrids. The timing would be intriguing, however; by the time the LS hybrid came out, Lexus had already worked over its filet-and-potatoes models. And if the hydrogen version is going to come in above the $120,440 hybrid, well, that will be a statement indeed.
VW is world's second-best-selling automaker, GM falls to third
Thu, 30 Jan 2014Every year when we start talking about which automaker is the biggest in the world, there always seems to be at least a little bit of controversy. For 2013, Toyota handily took the top spot with 9.98 million sales, but it's the runner up spot between General Motors and Volkswagen that is starting to create a stir.
Based on our earlier report, GM's 9.71 million vehicles put it in second place ahead of VW's 9.5-million-vehicle effort. Now, The Detroit News is reporting that VW is claiming a tally of 9.73 million sales, including figures from MAN and Scania - heavy-duty truck divisions under the VW AG family. The article points out that Toyota's sales figure includes its Hino line of trucks, but these might still be considered light-duty vehicles while MAN and Scania build tractor trailers.
Toyota must go to trial over unintended acceleration suits
Tue, 08 Oct 2013Toyota is surely readying its trial lawyers, as the Japanese giant is officially headed to court in a pair of cases relating to its unintended acceleration fiascos of 2009 and 2010.
In the first case, the United States Supreme Court has actually got involved in matters, ignoring an appeal from Toyota that attempted to use an arbitrator to settle its California lawsuits. The automaker will now go to trial to face owners of 2010 Prius models over an alleged defect with the anti-lock braking systems, which plaintiffs say made the cars more difficult to stop, according to Bloomberg.
The second trial is a bit more in depth, covering the case of Ida St. John, an 83-year-old from Georgia, that crashed her 2005 Camry in 2009. The accident is believed to have played a part in her death, although the suit, being filed by her grandson, doesn't actually place blame on Toyota for her death.
