This 85 4Runner is from out west and has very minimal rust. I purchased this to fix-up and use for summer cruising. I have since realized I really don't need it. I have other tools and equipment I need worse than a toy. I purchased the truck non running and have replaced the transmission, exhaust, and rebuilt the motor with new rings, bearings and exhaust valves. The motor was all within factory specs so it is standard bore and bearing sizes, just a quick hone in the cylinders. I went this route since the motor was in factory spec otherwise I would have had it machined or would of replaced it. I'm not going to waste my time on junk. This runs through all 5 gears and reverse fine no grinding or bad noises. Transfercase and 4wd all work as they should. I used them in the snow. The tires are 31x10.5x15 Super Swampers on American Racing wheels. Tires are worn but still have some life in them. There is no radio. The factory harness appears to be intact not hacked up by some punk. It does need a windshield and has some bumps and bruises that can be seen in the pictures. I have the sheet metal to repair the damage below the driverside tail light. This is a good start for a restoration, turning into an offroad beast or daily driver. The rust is only on the outer quarter panel, all the inner structure is real nice. The wheel well trim had to be the cause of the rust. This truck isn't perfect but then again it isn't priced like a perfect truck either. I love these old straight axle 4Runners but at this time I have greater needs/wants. I am looking for skid steer loader, plasma cutter, surface grinder, machine shop size mill, lathe (no table top), CNC, quality tools, Lexus Gs, 10,000 trailer,things that go boom,etc. Let me know what you have. Make me an offer. Worst I can say is no. I would be willing to purchase someones item of equal, greater or lesser value if they purchase my 4Runner. I can assist in shipping, possibly deliver. I will not handle the shipping. I will help with loading and whatever the shipper needs. I would be willing to possibly deliver for an agreed price before the end of the auction. Please contact me before bidding about shipping, please do not assume we agree.I would be willing to hold this if someone that is waiting for their taxes if a not refundable deposit is made. Please contact me with your intentions if this plan seem desireable. Again please do not assume. Please feel free to ask any questions or come inspect/drive. Feel free to call me at `309-738-six741

Refreshed 2013 Toyota Landcruiser Prado gets official [w/video]
Fri, 30 Aug 2013We'd seen leaked images of the the refreshed 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, now Toyota has deemed it officially ready for the European masses it is aimed at. We can only hope the masses are ready for that grille, probably the most intense of the many changes made to the volcano-eating truck. The new face and its "powerfully projecting vertical bars" were designed to "accentuate the new Toyota's rugged appearance," as if the legendarily capable SUV wasn't rugged enough. Other changes include redesigned headlight clusters, stronger character lines along the sides, new taillights and license plate "garnish" in back, and a slew of new wheel choices. Both the three- and five-door are 20 millimeters longer, all of that in the front overhang, but the approach angle apparently hasn't changed.
The new organization of trims runs from Entry to Legend, Prestige and Executive. The interior has been reorganized with better seats in the second and third rows, a new upper center console, a redesigned panel for controlling on- and off-road driving functions, reworked Optitron meters with a 4.2-inch LCD screen, and new switchgear, fabrics and color schemes. Infotainment has been upgraded with Toyota Touch 2 and Toyota Touch 2 with Go. They mirror your smartphone if said phone happens to be either a Samsung Galaxy S3 or Galaxy Note 2.
On-road driving dynamics have been improve with suspension changes, and a Rear Cross Traffic Alert added to the suite of safety features for maneuvering the beast. When it comes to the Land Cruiser's real reason for being, the five Multi-terrain Select choices and five-step Crawl Control are more easily used with a Multi-terrain Monitor reworked for more clarity.
Toyota issues multiple recalls for 6.4 million vehicles worldwide
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It looks like 2014 may go down as the year of recalls. We were already at a record pace, and now it seems Toyota is recalling 6.39 million vehicles worldwide, including about 30 of its models for a variety of problems. None of the faults have caused any injuries or fatalities, but there have been two reports of fires caused by a defective engine starter motor.
Toyota's numbers show 1.772 million vehicles being recalled in the US, but that includes some overlap because the Yaris is being repaired for multiple faults. According to The Detroit News, there are 2.36 million affected models in all of north North America, 1.09 million in Japan and 810,000 in Europe, plus smaller numbers in other regions.
Among the vehicles recalled in the US are 1.3 million units of the 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris. The problem is that the driver's airbag module is attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on the cable can be damaged when the steering wheel is turned, which deactivates the airbag and causes the airbag warning light to come on. Toyota is replacing the cable with an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin the repair. The company is sending affected owners notifications in the mail. According to The Detroit News, an unspecified number of Pontiac Vibe vehicles are also included in this recall because it shares the part with the Matrix.
Toyota C-HR Concept is a high-riding hybrid hatch [w/video]
Thu, 02 Oct 2014Despite having the tendency to offer decidedly bland production cars, Toyota occasionally surprises us with interesting concept cars. Such is the case with the C-HR concept making its debut at the Paris Motor Show this week. It's a concept showing forward-thinking design that hints at "a type of crossover vehicle Toyota would like to bring to market," according to the automaker's release, and it rides on an all-new platform and uses a hybrid powertrain.
About that powertrain: Toyota isn't revealing anything, just saying that it will - brace yourselves - "deliver significantly improved fuel efficiency" (over what, exactly?) The car also uses a brand-new architecture, though it hasn't really revealed any major details about that aspect, either.
It's a high-riding, muscular thing, with a rakish hatchback shape. Should it reach production, Toyota says it would take the shape of a C-segment crossover. It'd be cool to see something like this hit the road someday, but for now, we won't hold our breath.
