 Toyota BJ40 Import VIN BJ40-010077

This is a foreign import Land Cruiser. I am an importer, bonded and registered with US Customs. I imported this Land Cruiser along with a Land Rover Defender. I have all import documents to validate the import and clear title on the vehicle. We did a full restoration on the Land Rover and now due to my flight school schedule I don't feel I have the time or money to do the Land Cruiser proper. This vehicle is a clean daily driver, rust free, documented desert climate vehicle from day 1. It runs well with 186K miles on a diesel BJ 4 cylinder engine, its really just broken in, not high miles considering it is a diesel. Its strong, gasket tight and ready to drive and enjoy.

My opinion is to media blast and repaint in the same classic color scheme. Media blasting is not a necessity but in my experience when a mediocre paint job is put over the original, it is best to media blast and start fresh.We have a facility we use who specialize in media blasting classic cars , then priming with epoxy sealer. We would be willing to facilitate this on request.

If you are looking for an original Land Cruiser classic ready to drive and enjoy this is a great Toyota for it. If you are looking to restore a classic Land Cruiser which will command 35K plus this is a great Land Cruiser to work from. It's already a solid vehicle with a little TLC it can be the Land Cruiser envy.

As I mentioned before I am in flight school under an intensive schedule which is time consuming and also very costly so I would be better to sell this one and help pay my expenses.

The vehicle has been mechanically maintained. Recently it has received a new water pump. New thermostat and housing. New break master cylinder.

I have tried to photo the best I can to show the vehicle condition. If you know what you're looking at then most of the photos will make sense. If I didn't get the shot you're looking for then message me and I will send you the photo angle you desire.I have a lot of additional photos I can email.

There is no rust on the frame or under carriage and many of the additional photos I have show that.

New Tires will be necessary.

All questions welcome. We are just outside Pensacola FL and you are welcome to view the vehicle or send someone on your behalf.

We have had some local interest so we reserve the right to cancel the listing at anytime, however I aim to honor the auction process.

If you want to speak in person message me and I will give you a contact number.

Thank you for your interest.

Cheap, honest transportation | 2017 Toyota Yaris iA

Fri, Mar 24 2017

In The Love Bug, the main character (aside from Herbie) is a down-on-his-luck racing driver named Jim Douglas. Early on, he steps into an exotic car show room, and when the dealer asks him kind of car he's looking for, Douglas replies, "What do you have in the way of cheap, honest transportation?" The dealer quickly snatches his fancy liquor back from Douglas and soon after Herbie shows up from the back of the showroom. But if this happened today, you could easily replace the classic Beetle with a 2017 Toyota Yaris iA. The poor thing isn't nearly as endearing to look at as a classic Bug, as a result of the rather unattractive nose, and it's now using a second pseudonym (first Scion iA, then Toyota Yaris iA) to hide its Mazda heritage. However, everything else about it nails the description of cheap, honest transportation. And for that reason, it's a lovely little car. Let's start with honesty, and it begins from the minute you start equipping the car – the iA is a "what you see is what you get" proposition. You see, the iA moniker isn't the only holdover from the Scion era. The Toyota Yaris iA retains its "monospec" configuration, which means it comes with only one option: the transmission. Customers can choose from either a 6-speed manual like our test car, or a 6-speed automatic which costs $1,100. Everything else is standard, and "everything" includes some choice features. You get alloy wheels, air conditioning, cruise control, USB and Bluetooth integration, a rear-view camera, tilt and telescoping steering wheel with audio controls, and keyless entry with push-button start. Technically there are a number of dealer-installed accessories too, including your typical fare of mudguards, rear spoiler, cargo organizers, and such. However, none of them are really necessary, with one exception. For some odd reason, the Yaris iA does not come with a center armrest. It's a $195 accessory, and frankly it should be a standard feature because it's so useful. If you hadn't guessed, ours wasn't equipped with it. Everywhere else the iA is a thoroughly pleasant car, if not as sporty as the old Mazda2. The little 1.5-liter four-cylinder under the hood isn't particularly potent with 106 horsepower and 103 lb-ft of torque. But with a Miata-like 2,385-pound curb weight and our car's manual transmission, it manages to feel fairly sprightly, and never has any trouble dicing it up with traffic. That transmission is pretty decent, too.
