1995 Toyota Land Cruiser Base Sport Utility 4-door 4.5l on 2040-cars
Leesburg, Virginia, United States
I have a 1995 Toyota Land Cruiser (FZJ-80, Locked) for sale. I have owned the car for about 3 years. I bought it form a wholesaler in Leesburg as a project/daily driver, with no service history. Over the last 2 years I have brought the car up to good standards, fixed all the things that were wrong with it. Most of the issues were due to the age of the car, and fairly typical for a 20 year old car, with some specifics to 80's. The complete list is below. I have been driving the car for 3 years and have no reliability issues with it. Starts and runs with no issues, and all the bad stuff has been fixed. If you look at the list of things done there is several k$ of work there, if you were to price it at a shop. Things that were done since I bought the car: - Replaced front diff output pinion seal - Replaced front oil pump gasket (this is a common problem with FZ motors) - Replaced front main crank seal - Replaced all front brake components (rotors, calipers, pads) - Complete front axel service (major seals, minor seals, bearings, knuckle bearings, outer seals) - Replaced shocks (all 4) stock monroe - Replaced steering linkage joints (all 4) - Replaced steering damper - Replaced power steering pump, flushed fluid - Replaced power steering pump drive gear - Replaced power steering gear box, and u-joint - Sealed the roof rack for leaks - Replaced Front diff oil - Replaced transfer case oil - Replaced dome light - Flushed brake fluid - Replaced rear diff oil - Replaced stuck emergency brake drum lever (driver side) - Fixed front passenger power seat worm gear assembly - Replaced coolant down tube gaskets - Replaced coolant hose - Replaced rear brake shoes - Replaced battery - Replaced rotor and plug wires - Replaced and filled AC system (evaporator core, Compressor, Exp Valve, Dryier) - Changed oil regularly around 5k miles - Installed new head unit and speakers (kenwood, I think) Full Disclosure: - The car has an odometer that reads 76k Miles, but the real mileage on the car is approximately 202k miles, someone obviously either changed the dash or rolled it. I had the car fax pulled when I bought it and the last note was at 193k, so adding the mileage I used, its at about 202k right now. - Rear windshield spray does not function, the motor and 3-way valve works, but there is a blockage in the line somewhere - Everything else works, including the lockers Family life and other responsibilities take up most of my time, and I am kind of over the project. Would love this car to go to someone who would be able to finish it, and give it a good home on the trail, or some overland adventure somewhere. . .. If you know these cars and see the work that went into it. . . compared to what is out there. . .. its worth it, but I am open to reasonable negotiation. Call or email if you would like to discuss, will share any info or knowledge I have on the vehicle. MIKE 7034593705 mta0202@gmail.com |

Lost power in a winter storm? Just hook up a Toyota Prius like this guy did
Thu, Jan 9 2014The Toyota Prius' battery pack just got something like a five-star rating from a truly seasoned professional – a 50-year aircraft technician. Bob Osemlak, who'd served more than three of those five decades with the Canadian Air Force, brought electricity back to his home in December during a heavy ice storm thanks to his gas-electric car. His ingenuity allowed him to turn on lights, furnace, refrigerator and the TV. The Thornhill, Ontario resident lost power for nearly a day on December 21 – not nearly as much as millions of other people hit by the recent storm - and so he still set about using his Prius for backup power, according to EV World. His ingenuity allowed him to turn on lights, furnace, refrigerator and the TV. Being an aircraft technician for so long brought Osemlak the ability to home-brew his V2H set-up that he urges other people to avoid, for safety reasons. He had planned for a potential power outage by installing an outlet on his furnace and, when the storm struck, he ran a cord through the basement window to the car. During the nine hours Osemlak used his Prius for backup power, the car's fuel gauge only reduced less than one bar, or roughly the equivalent of a gallon of gasoline. It wasn't the first time Osemlak had played with his vehicle. In the 1960s, while stationed in Winnepeg, Manitoba, he created a car starter. Every hour, the car would start up and run for 10 minutes to avoid being frozen solid in frigid winter temperatures.

Report: Daihatsu leaving European market
Sun, 16 Jan 2011More than any other, two carmaking giants sit at the top of the industry: Toyota and General Motors. But while GM sells under a (shrinking but still) expansive range of brands, the Toyota Motor Corporation sells most of its vehicles under its own name. That doesn't mean that Toyota, however, doesn't have its own portfolio of subsidiaries. Here in the United States we have the youth-oriented Scion division, while Lexus handles its upscale offerings, and overseas there's Daihatsu.
The budget brand offers a range of small cars under its own name; most are hatchbacks, but there's also the Copen roadster and even a rebadged Camry called the Altis. You may have come across some of their offerings while traveling overseas, particularly in Europe, but that last part is about to come to an end, according to reports.
Word from across the pond is that Toyota plans to withdraw Daihatsu from the European market altogether. The move would reportedly take effect in 2013, and if it comes to pass, would follow similar withdrawals from the North American (1992) and Australian (2006) markets. Thanks for the tip, William!
Jim Lentz exposes more details behind Toyota's move to Texas
Fri, 02 May 2014Toyota's North American CEO Jim Lentz has already given us a rough idea of what prompted the company's surprise move to the Dallas suburb of Plano, TX from its longstanding headquarters in Torrance, CA. A new story from The Los Angeles Times, though, delivers even more detail from Lentz on the reasoning for the move, what other cities were considered and why the company's current host city wasn't even in the running.
Of course, one of the more popular reasons being bandied about includes the $40 million Texas was set to give the company for the move, as well as the state's generous tax rates. According to Lentz, though, the reason Toyota chose Plano over a group of finalists made up of Atlanta, Charlotte and Denver, was far simpler than that - it was about consolidating its marketing, sales, engineering and production teams in a region that's closer to the company's seat of manufacturing in the south.
"It doesn't make sense to have oversight of manufacturing 2,000 miles away from where the cars were made," Lentz told The Times. "Geography is the reason not to have our headquarters in California."
