Redwood City, California, United States

This is a very rare 1 owner 1965 fj40 california black plate survivor! I am pretty sure this was sold out of the Stancil motors dealership in placerville, a very well known dealership in the 60's. the original owner parked it in his backyard from 1999 thru 2011 when I purchased from a tow company who were asked to remove it from the property. they did a lien sale and I have all the proper paper work to reregister the vehicle. It retains its original california black plates. This is an amazing surviving example and would be easy to restore as every little detail is there.It still has its original koito headlights,radiator cap with chain,horns, horn relay with plastic cover,oil fill cap with chain,front drive lock out pin with chain, drivers seat release pins with chains,jack,handles, kkk lock on tool box,most of its original coral seat upholstry,rear jump seat straps intact , reading light,last year for the bifold top (complete with working hardware) This fj40 runs great, shifts smooth, stops fine,it even has tin master and clutch slave cylinders! Original big window asian idles perfectly.I had to rebuild the head due to sticky valves from the old fuel.I also put a newer gas tank in ( not correct but comes with the original ( needs to be cleaned and sealed but rust free) It retains its original paint paint so what you see is what you get ,no hidden rust or bondo.The rear sil does have the normal rust and the front of the right rear wheel well has a little rust through (see pic) other than that the body is rock solid as is the frame for a 49 year old vehicle. I dont believe the top has ever been off.Some of the lights and electrical need need work(wiring harness is in great shape) The only non original add ons were the front spot lights,rear add on tail lights in the top and a radio in the dash. It has a dealer heater all intact,rare pintle hitch and rear step,original rear lights and brackets(rare these days)It has an original dunlop rk3 spare tire that has never been on the ground as well as all 5 acorn hubcaps.These early fj40's are getting hard to find now and restored examples are now selling at auction for big bucks,you can enjoy as is or do a concours restoration of a classic fj40 that will only go up in value.I  have too many landcruiser so its time to pass this on to the next enthusiest.this will be a NO RESERVE auction, high bidder wins! You must have good feedback to bid, look at my feedback it should look the same.Last vehicle I sold was a  non paying buyer,please dont waste my time.I will help load onto shipper,and once paid for I can store it as long as needed. This is sold with a bill of sale and all proper lien sale paperwork to retitle(I do not hold a title in my name) there should be no issue getting a title. Located in the bay area california ( never been out of california) Please ask questions before bidding,good luck!!

Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015

Tue, Feb 11 2014

Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper. For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011. The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors. While the adoption of SAE J2807 will be helpful for light-duty customers, those interested in bigger trucks will still be left with differing standards. There is no sign of the new tow standards being adopted for the heavy-duty market.

Toyota to shock with Supra concept for Detroit Auto Show?

Fri, 06 Dec 2013

We've written about approximately 187,000 rumors about a return of the Toyota Supra to the land of living cars. There are a couple of good reasons for this: first, Toyota won't stop dropping hints about a new halo sports car. Late this summer, Toyota sales guru Kazuo Ohara called a Supra successor "one of the options we have" - a comment followed by a hint that there would be "better news" on the subject in the future.
The second reason for all the Toyota tales is, of course, that we all have missed the Supra since its departure from the US market in 1998. So, when a member of the Autoblog team is party to a nudge-and-wink-filled conversation about a new Supra concept headed to January's Detroit Auto Show, we tend to listen up.
A 400+ horsepower hybrid sports car would match up pretty well with the upcoming NSX.

First 2014 Toyota Corolla commercial dances through time

Sat, 07 Sep 2013

Despite the fact that the Toyota Corolla pretty much sells itself, the eleventh-generation 2014 model is getting a huge marketing push that aims to appeal to both Millennials (of course), as well as the older generations that have lived with the stalwart Japanese compact for decades. The first television advertising spot, called, "Style Never Goes Out of Style," shows that the Corolla has had a place in mainstream culture since its launch in the 1960s. We have to admit, it's pretty cool to see older models from the '60s, '70s and '80s come out to play for this commercial, especially the latter of those, as it gives us enthusiasts fond memories of the infamous AE86.
The whole web/broadcast/print/social media marketing campaign surrounding the 2014 Corolla is called "Elevate," because, according to Toyota:
Extensive market research shows that Millennials are looking to take their career to the next level and are looking to buy their first 'real' car to get them there. The design of the all-new Corolla is significantly elevated from the previous generations, creating a more dynamic and desirable image for the Corolla nameplate that will appeal to these younger buyers.
