1974 Toyota Land Cruiser Fj40: Clean One Owner 96,123 Runs Great on 2040-cars
Pocatello, Idaho, United States
Hello, and welcome to my FJ40 auction. I am the second owner of this vehicle and she has been my daily driver for the last few months.The odometer has not turned yet and sits at 96,123 miles.
I got the Land Cruiser from Teton Toyota here in Idaho after they decided to retire her. She was used for hunting and camping, as well as some plowing in her day. 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 drivers side floor pan and below the rocker panel on the drivers side. The drivers side floor pan is still functional but will need to be replaced at some point. This FJ40 is stock as they come and is all original minus the rear floor. Here is a list of the original OEM part on this vehicle: The engine 4 speed transmission and transfer case are all stock. The engine is all original including the air intake, carburetor, etc... 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 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. 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 2F engine and 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 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 driver side but the fender, frame, back end, and undercarriage are really solid. The Cruiser has not been modified at all and is all original. The front seats will need to be reupholstered, and the drivers side rust will need to be replaced with new steel. The hood will also need to be buffed out and repainted. There is also a small dent on the hood that will need to be pounded out if you want to do a full restore. I do have a pristine hood for this Cruiser if the lucky winner is interested in purchasing it from me for $75.00. I will throw it in the back of the FJ40 for you:) I have a video on Youtube that shows the car running, shifting, driving, and a complete walkthrough. 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 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:) http://youtu.be/gsnSAs0t99I |

Toyota announces two recalls affecting 1M Corolla, Matrix and Lexus IS models
Wed, 30 Jan 2013The recall bug strikes Toyota again. The automaker has issued a voluntary recall of three models that, in total, represent more than one million units. Around 752,000 2003-2004 Toyota Corolla and Matrix models are being recalled for airbag concerns, while a windshield wiper issue is causing the recall for close to 270,000 Lexus IS sedans from the 2006-2012 model years.
Completely unrelated to the small airbag-related recall issued earlier in the week, the Corolla and Matrix recall is caused by a faulty airbag control module that could potentially short circuit, which could lead to the front airbags or seat belt pretensioners deploying. The Lexus recall is due to a wiper arm nut that wasn't tightened properly, which can cause the wipers to not work when trying to clear heavy buildup such as snow.
Scroll down for a press release that includes more information, as well as details about how owners can contact the manufacturer directly.
Toyota to drop regular-cab Tacoma as small pickups take another hit
Fri, 02 Aug 2013Even as General Motors prepares to redesign its midsize pickups, the market for sub-fullsize trucks continues to shrink. The remaining competitors in the segment are the well-aged Nissan Frontier, Honda Ridgeline and Toyota Tacoma, and now Truck Trend is reporting that the latter will be dropping its regular cab model due to poor sales.
According to the article, the available configurations for the Tacoma lineup will be whittled down in 2015, which apparently spells the end for the two-door Taco. The Tacoma is currently the last truck in its class to be offered in a regular cab configuration, with the Frontier no longer offering a standard cab model and spy shots of the next-gen Chevrolet Colorado not revealing any glimpse of a short cab, either.
Toyota responds to video of Highlander ramming house [w/video]
Thu, 18 Apr 2013There are, as they say, two sides to every story, so after we posted a video on Monday showing what an owner claimed to be a case of unintended acceleration causing her Toyota Highlander to crash into a house twice, Toyota reached out to us revealing some additional information about the incident.
Following this crash, which took place back in November, Toyota had this Highlander inspected and pulled data from its Event Data Recorder (EDR), or Black Box as we've come to call it. Not only was this the first time we've seen a claim of unintended acceleration like this caught on video, but now, also a first, we have actual data showing what the vehicle itself recorded during this frightening ordeal.
Brian Lyons, Toyota Communications Manager for Safety and Quality, first gave us some information about the Highlander in question, including the fact that it was a 2012 model. The 2012 Highlander came from the factory with a brake override system, meaning it was not part of the company's initiative in 2010 to add the system to all 2011 models. Also, after looking at the data from the EDR, he said - as many of you pointed out in the comments for the previous post - that the "brake pedal was never touched." In the video, you can see that the crossover's brake lights never come on, and the EDR's data backs this up.
