1974 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser 4 Speed Transmission & Transfer Case 327 V8 from a 1969 Impala 33" new tires, Ultra rims Drag Race Your Friends And Then Run Them Over! I have never had any trouble getting the car to run or start even on cold winter days. This is still the most reliable car I have ever owned. This FJ40 is untouched and all original, minus the V8 conversion. The V8 conversion was done professionally and is very clean. The smaller radiator also helps heat the heaters up much more quickly than the old straight 6. The vehicle has spent its entire life here in Eastern Idaho, and I know both of the previous owners. They kept everything on this vehicle, including the original shifting knobs, original engine mounts, front lockers, jack, winch, etc.. The list just goes on and on. I have taken photos of everything that comes with this vehicle. The winch was disassembled by the previous owner and is in pieces. I am not sure that it works. This rig is really solid and is in excellent condition. The engine, transmission, transfer case, lights, heaters and all of the switches work. This FJ40 was taken care of and received regular oil changes and maintenance. The vehicle itself is in excellent condition and doesn't have much rust for a Cruiser. The only real rust is on the driver's side fender and along the back by the rear barn doors. This would be an easy fix or you could just roll with it. This FJ40 is stock as they come and is all original, minus the V8 conversion. Here is a list of the original OEM parts on this vehicle: The 4 speed transmission and transfer case are all stock. The entire body, frame, axles, etc. are stock with no aftermarket parts. The interior is all original including all of the switches, lights, and all four seats The tire carrier, hubs, lockers, winch, jack, hub caps, glove box light, shifter knobs are all OEM and original to the vehicle. The doors and hatch are all original and in excellent condition. The front and back doors are entirely rust free, and are some of the most beautiful FJ40 doors I have ever seen. The paint on this vehicle is also original. The previous owners would shoot a little primer on the rig when it got a chip in the paint to keep it from rusting. It definitely worked, and you will be stunned by how clean this rig is. You can see that most of this vehicle is stock and in great condition. I personally really like the 1974 FJ40 because it was the last year of the hatch, but it also was the first year of the 4 speed transmission. I know from past experiences that those ambulance doors are really dangerous for small kids, and fingers in general, if you don't secure them. The hatch never fails as long as you have it lifted high enough to get under it without smacking your dome. This one will fit the bill if you are 6 foot or shorter. This was also the last year of the older style doors which, in my opinion are, the coolest of the FJ40 doors--that at least goes for the retro steel interior. This FJ40 would be an ideal restore project, daily driver, or hunting rig. It does have a little rust along the rear, but everything else looks amazing. This Cruiser has not been modified at all and is all original minus the V8 conversion. The front seats look awesome and were fully restored a few years ago. The driver's side seat will need a little patch job, but is solid. The seats are original to the vehicle. The 327 V8 in itself is a valuable engine, and this one is original and unmodified. Running (as it is) it is worth $2,500 or more on its own. I have a video on Youtube that shows the car running, shifting, driving, and a complete walkthrough. You need to view this video to appreciate the power and beauty of this FJ40. I can also store the vehicle for 30 days once payment is made if you need time to arrange shipment. You will need to pay me $100.00 a month to store it any longer than that. Payment must be made within one week of auction ending. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day:) |

Toyota Prius line may not reach 2013 sales target
Mon, 22 Apr 20132012 was a good year for the Toyota Prius line, the hybrid that started it all moving 236,659 units, being the best-selling model in California for the year and the Prius C (pictured) being deemed the most reliable car of 2012 by Consumer Reports. Then 2013 happened, and gas prices dropped more than expected, and people haven't been buying the little hybrids like they used to.
A report in Bloomberg says Toyota set 250,000 units as the Prius family's sales target for this year, but hits like the double-digit drop in year-on-year performance in February have helped lower 2013 sales by 8.4 percent compared to 2012, making the objective "a challenge" to reach. The declines in Prius sales come even as hybrid sales overall were up in the first couple of months this year, including sales of other Toyota and Lexus hybrids. Jim Lentz, Toyota's North American chief, said the Prius target would be adjusted if necessary.
Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k
Wed, 07 Nov 2012Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.
Japan may aid carmakers facing U.S. tariff threat
Wed, Sep 12 2018TOKYO — Japan is considering giving carmakers fiscal support including tax breaks to offset the impact from trade frictions with the United States and a sales-tax hike planned for next year, government sources told Reuters on Wednesday. Going into a second round of trade talks with the United States on Sept. 21, Japan is hoping to avert steep tariffs on its car exports and fend off U.S. demands for a bilateral free trade agreement that could put it under pressure to open politically sensitive markets, like agriculture. "If the trade talks pile pressure on Japan's car exports, we would need to consider measures to support the auto industry," a ruling party official said on condition of anonymity because of sensitivity of the matter. The auto industry accounts for about 20 percent of Japan's overall output and around 60-70 percent of the country's trade surplus with the United States, making it vulnerable to U.S. action against Japanese exports. Japan's biggest automakers and components suppliers fear they could take a significant hit if Washington follows through on proposals to hike tariffs on autos and auto parts to 25 percent. Policymakers also worry that an increase in the sales tax from 8 percent to 10 percent planned for October 2019, could cause a slump in sales of big-ticket items such as cars and home. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has twice postponed the tax hike after the last increase from 5 percent in 2014 dealt a blow to private consumption, which accounts for about 60 percent of the economy. To prevent a pullback in demand after the tax hike, the government may consider large fiscal spending later when it draws up its budget for next year, government sources said. "One option may be to greatly reduce or abolish the automobile purchase tax," one of the government sources said. The government is also considering cuts in the automobile tax and automobile weight tax to help car buyers, the source added.
