Hello, and welcome to my FJ40 auction. I am the third owner of this vehicle, and she has been my daily driver for the last few months. This is one fast FJ40,  and she is incredibly reliable.
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 working on cars that hover above the roadway

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

Toyota 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.

Toyota Camry Hybrid SE adds a dash of limited-edition sport

Tue, 04 Feb 2014

For drivers who want to benefit from the increased efficiency of a hybrid sedan but who don't want to look like they'd rather be hugging trees, Toyota has just announced its 2014.5 Camry Hybrid SE Limited Edition.
The SE LTD combines the exterior bits and pieces that make the SE look sportier than other Camry models with the 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine, electric motor and nickel metal hydride battery pack of the Camry Hybrid. That means the Hybrid SE offers up 200 combined system horsepower to the front wheels, and we'd expect it to be rated at the same 40 miles per gallon city and 38 highway of the Camry XLE Hybrid.
Only 5,000 units will be produced between February and June of 2014, with an asking price of $27,845, which is about $700 more expensive than the base Camry Hybrid LE or $2,620 less than the Hybrid XLE that Toyota says shares a similar level of equipment. Sounds like a fair shake to us. Scroll down below for the complete press release.
