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 |

Toyota nearing $1B settlement of unintended acceleration criminal probe
Sun, 09 Feb 2014According to those all-too-nebulous "people familiar with the matter," Toyota is close to a settlement with the US federal government to end a criminal probe over its long-running unintended acceleration fiasco. Though Toyota has never admitted guilt, the deal could reportedly crest a billion dollars and would likely include a criminal deferred prosecution agreement, and while we're not legal experts, The Wall Street Journal explains that such a deal would "[force Toyota] to accept responsibility while avoiding the potentially crippling consequences of federal criminal convictions."
The report from WSJ also suggests that Toyota is facing charges that it "made false or incomplete disclosures" to various government agencies regarding possible defects to its cars. Such charges may include mail and wire fraud violations. Toyota has already paid out fines totaling $66.2 million to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration because it failed to report safety defects in a timely manner.
This deal with the federal government is not related to the billion-dollar class-action settlement reached with Toyota owners over falling vehicle values, and it's also different from the roughly 400 lawsuits still in courts alleging personal injury of wrongful death due to cases of unintended acceleration. In other words, don't expect to hear the end of such courtroom verdicts and settlements anytime soon...
Toyota working on cars that hover above the roadway
Wed, 11 Jun 2014Toyota is one of the largest automakers in the world, but it's not content simply building and selling conventional cars - it's been at the forefront of numerous advancements in ground transportation. It is widely credited with advancing the cause of hybrid propulsion, and alongside Audi and Google, is among the first automakers seriously testing self-driving cars. We could go on, but the news here is that Toyota is reportedly developing vehicles that hover above the road surface instead of rolling along it.
The news comes from Hiroyoshi Yoshiki, one of Toyota's tech gurus, who revealed at Bloomberg's Next Big Thing summer in San Francisco that the company is working on hovering cars - ones that travel just above the road surface, but don't actually fly in three-dimension space.
According to The Verge, a spin-off of our own sister-site Engadget, Yoshiki refused to elaborate on what the project entails and how far along it is. He was speaking along acting NHTSA chief David Friedman, who lauded such advancements as a "great taste of innovations to come," but stressed the significance of more concrete improvements to conventional automobiles - like inter-car communications to keep vehicles from colliding on the highway - as more relevant to today's industry.
Audi investing $30.3 billion through 2018 for product expansion
Sun, 29 Dec 2013How does Audi plan to reach two million units in annual sales and pay for the 11 new models it's adding to its lineup - an expansion that may include models named SQ2, Q9 and F-Tron? By increasing its investment to 22 billion euros ($30.3 billion US) between now and 2018. That figure represents an increase of about 500 million euros over the previously planned outlay, according to a report by Automotive News, and that could be due to Audi wishing to goad the momentum that pushed it to 1.5 million annual sales two years ahead of schedule.
It's also about staving off the challenges from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Now that BMW has been able to turn some of its attention away from its "i" series of Megacity cars, it will reportedly spend more than planned in 2014 as it continues the rollout of ten all-new vehicles and 15 new-generation vehicles through the end of next year. Mercedes, having been dropped to third in the sales race, is preparing to add 13 new cars over the next six years.
Audi's money is going into technology, into product like the next-generation TT and the Q1 and production expansions and upgrades all over the world. The expenditure represents just under a fourth of Volkswagen's 84.2 billion-euro ($115.7 US) outlay devoted to taking the number-one global automaker title away from General Motors and Toyota by 2018.
