Condition and Assessment:

Body/Frame: There is some rust, but no pitting or structural issues. The Body is in good shape. There is one cancer spot (pictured) on the driver’s side rear below the seal. Otherwise the body is in good shape. Paint is in decent shape, Capri Blue (color code T310)

Electrical: windshield wiper motor is shot. (Additional wiper motor and housing included). Headlights and turn signals work. Factory horn is not working and an aftermarket one is installed with a button on the dash. Speedometer works but needs to be cleaned. (It bounces above 50 mph) Refurbished Intake and new Carb installed. Original Carb included.

Interior/doors: New Soft Top and new Soft Top Bows primed in grey from Real Steel. Trollhole Cruisers is a full time Land Cruiser restoration company who has begun manufacturing soft tops for the older Land Cruisers that look like the old factory soft tops did. It is a brand new high quality top in canvas. The top is on the truck in some pictures but is NOT fully installed, all hardware to complete install IS included. SOR Seat covers over the original front seats. They need to be redone. The rear has a very nice bench seat. All seats have 4 point crow harness systems.

Doors need to be redone so glass is secure. I am including all weather stripping and felt for them. Glass is in good shape. Doors have some rust holes on the bottom. The rear half “barn doors” and rear bumper have been bent and are not fully flush with the rear seal but function and are structurally sound. A 1974 factory roll bar is included all though not original to this year or truck.

 

Engine/Drivetrain: The 1F runs strong and has been converted from a 3 on the tree to a floor shifter. The rear main seal needs to be replaced so the Cruiser does “mark its territory” with a nickel sized oil stain after being driven for 30 minutes. All cylinders have good compression.
_________________________________________________________________________
This Land Cruiser would be good for a full restoration, a weekend driver, or for a trail truck. Mechanically it has had a lot of love and new parts. A new top, new badging and decent paint make it a beautiful truck and with more work it will only increase in value.

 

Truck has a clear Mississippi Title. It is located in Madison, MS and is 30 minutes from the Jackson Airport. I will assist with shipping at buyers expense.

Seller reserves right to end auction early. All sales are final with vehicle being sold where is, as is. The truck and clear title remain with seller until complete payment is received!

 

Contact and Questions:

Please ask any questions here on ebay as others will probably have the same questions. Once the auction is over I will be available via phone to work with the buyer on shipping if needed.

Toyota struggling in Latin American market, attempting recovery

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

With uncertainty in the US and Chinese markets, automakers are scrambling to rev up their efforts in what were traditionally secondary markets. Take Toyota's efforts in Latin America. A recent story from The Wall Street Journal highlights the Japanese brand's push in the southern hemisphere, particularly in Brazil, where it has expanded its operations and installed new executives with a greater range of powers, all in a bid to grab a bigger slice of the ever-growing South American pie.
South America is dominated by General Motors, Fiat and Volkswagen, which maintain a combined 60 percent of the market share - Toyota holds a mere 4.5 percent. The WSJ spoke with Steve St. Angelo, Toyota's boss in Latin America, who said, "We are playing catch up, but we're catching up fast. We now have the resources to give the region the attention it really needs and deserves."
That attention includes an all-new, locally produced small car called the Etios. As bewildering as it seems, Toyota wasn't competing in the low-cost economy car market in South America. With the Etios, which arrived in September of 2012, its sales in the first seven months of 2013 are up 75 percent.

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.
