I have been an enthusiest for 20 years and have had many  fj45 pickups over the years. A friend of mine in australia and I decided to bring some fj45 utes over from australia here to california. My goal is to bring in some neat  fj45's and hj47 utes and offer them as real untouched,unrestored, running and driving work trucks and most importantly offer them at affordable prices that most can afford. There will be no fresh paint jobs, bondo,mismatched parts,etc. No buy it now for $75k!! No dealers, or out of the country sales. These trucks are located in California by private party. with that said they cannot be registered here in california directly. They need to be registered in a neighboring state first and then can come into california. So use due diligence when bidding and make sure you can register in your state(most are very easy) California is always the hardest state to register vehicles. This truck will be sold with a bill of sale and dot import paperwork, Aussie trucks do not have a title. This is a 1977 fj45 ute rhd. It has been upgraded with the much sought after 1hz late model toyota diesel engine,as well as an h41 4spd with the low first gear,and a split transfercase. It also has power disk brakes and rare power steering! and factory full float rear end and split rims! It is a well used original paint fj45 that runs great, goes down the road great. the engine has aprox 180 km and has NO blowby, and does not smoke at all, even dead cold fires right up after a short glow(manual glow system. Runs very strong and is quiet,a real joy to drive. the frame is solid, no rust,the cab has various rust spots,top lower corners( I have replacement sections for this) Pass floor has some rust through,windshield frame has some minor areas,nothing that isnt fixable.The brakes need some work, right front caliper seized and maybe a master cylinder? Hard pedal fade. Engine is very dry, no major leaks anywhere.Seats need some work. Basically an honest solid drivetrain,that runs drives and goes down the road. Would be a great truck to tinker on and fix the cosmetics as you drive. Please ask questions and have good feedback, and be serious and dont waste my time! Good luck...THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION!!

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.

Toyota recalls 4,000 Tacoma pickups over valve springs

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

When you build as many cars and trucks as Toyota does, you're bound to run into the occasional recall. In the past month alone, the Japanese auto giant has recalled over 800,000 Camry, Avalon and Venza models over problems with the air-conditioning units, and 10,000 more before that over windshield wiper issues. Now Toyota has issued another recall notice, but this time for far fewer vehicles.
The recall revolves around the engine valve springs in the 2013 and 2014 Tacoma, specifically those fitted with the standard 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine and not the optional 4.0-liter V6. The issue is that the valve springs are prone to cracking and breaking over time, and results from improper maintenance of the manufacturing equipment used by one of the two suppliers that outfit Toyota with the components in question.
All told, some 4,000 vehicles will be subject to the voluntary recall, the owners of which will receive notice by mail. If you think that could be you and want to get a jump on the problem, you can read the announcement below and call Toyota yourself.

Toyota mints 10-millionth vehicle in Kentucky

Fri, 30 May 2014

In 26 years, from 1988 up to now, the Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky plant in Georgetown has built ten million vehicles - nearly enough for every citizen of Seoul, Korea or the nation of Hungary. The first car to roll off the line back when the claymation California Raisins were singing old Marvin Gaye hits and everybody wanted to know Who Framed Roger Rabbit? was a white Camry. The ten-millionth car to roll off the line among the Avalons and Venzas also produced there: a white Camry Hybrid.
Toyota has put $5.9 billion into the site since its inception, employment is up to 7,000 associates and will grow when Lexus ES350 assembly begins next year. Whereas car number one is a showpiece for the ages, one of the automaker's current associates will get to win the ten-millionth car in a blind drawing to be held this summer.
There's a press release below with more information on the impressive milestone.
