This 1968 FJ40 Land Cruiser was recently pulled from a barn in So. Alabama, equipped with fold up rear seats, rear heater, 6cylinder engine, three on the tree, believed to be 63,227 miles.  This cruiser is in very solid condition, it does have a lot of surface rust, looks to be easily blasted off.  The original RED seats belts are still intact, the seats are original, as you can see, Bottle jack still in place under drivers seat in stow away compartment, Original Toyota Tool Kit, along with Original Owners Manuals (somewhat chewed on by mice, but in fair condition).  The floors are solid, please check out my pictures.  I cleaned out the fuel tank & lines, installed new spring fuel filter in Glass Bowl, primed the single barrel carb & it came to life!!, engine sounds very smooth.  The carb does need a kit for it leaks out the accelerator shaft.  My intention is to leave this Land Cruiser alone for the buyer to restore or keep in its original condition.  I found the numbers on the frame & they match the VIN tag.  I will be selling this Land Cruiser "as is where is, with no warranty expressed or implied".  This cruiser is not in running condition, it will need to be hauled to you home.  Please bid to win, I need to move this Cruiser this week.  Thanks & Good Luck.  Please contact me thru e-bay with any questions & I will be glad to provide additional info on this Land Cruiser.

Sports 800 is a progenitor of Toyota performance

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

There's an automotive axiom that claims it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. If that's the case, then pushing a Toyota Sports 800 around must be one of the most exhilarating experiences behind the wheel in the world. With just 800cc of displacement from a two-cylinder boxer engine, the focus is on finesse over outright speed. Still, it's a fantastic page in Toyota's performance history, and Petrolicious takes a ride with a man who owns a meticulously restored 1967 example in its latest video.
The Sports 800 used the classic cost-saving strategy in the auto industry of taking parts from a standard model in the lineup and modifying it into a sports car. In this case that meant borrowing the engine from the plebian Toyota Publica, beefing it up for more power and clothing the whole thing a in beautifully shaped, wind-tunnel-honed body.
The look of these lithe, targa roadsters is the exact opposite of the rather dull styling sometimes associated with Toyota today. Everywhere you look there are louvers, vents or curves to draw the eye. Check out the latest Petrolicious video for a detailed look at the history of this rare model that's largely unknown on this side of the Pacific.

Supra successor may be all-electric sourced from Tesla; MR2 returning too?

Wed, 14 Nov 2012

Rumors of a revival of the Toyota Supra and MR2 have been swirling for years right up until just this week when high-level Toyota employees all but confirmed their return.
But now The Detroit Bureau has put together news from different sources suggesting that the next Supra might be all electric. The report cites recent comments from Toyota senior executives hinting at plans to work with Tesla on a new joint project. The FT-HS Concept (shown above) seems a logical inspiration for a new Supra.
And on the other side of the equation is Tesla's design chief Franz von Holzhausen who was quoted last year saying his company was looking at its next project, probably a sports car, that would follow next year's intro of the Model X. He went on to suggest the car would compete directly with BMW's 3 Series, which, in coupe form, could be a worthy competitor to a Supra as well.

Toyota recalling 11,200 Scion iQ models over faulty passenger sensors

Wed, 07 Nov 2012

Toyota has announced a voluntary recall of 11,200 Scion iQ models from the 2012 and 2013 model years. According to the manufacturer, the problem with these pint-sized hatchbacks concerns the front passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) weight sensor cables.
The OCS sensors in the front passenger seat control the operation of things like the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioner. In these affected models, the cables for these sensors located in the seat track can become damaged as the passenger seat slides forward and backward. And if the cables are damaged, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioner may not function properly.
No injuries or crashes have been reported in conjunction with this issue.
