This is a beautiful project fj40 landcruiser that my father and i bought as it sits with hopes of finishing it together. he has since had 3 back surgeries and we are not going to get it done so we've decided to sell it to make room for other things. The project is pretty much down to the final assembly and fit/ finish stuff.

it is a fiberglass body with a one piece front end

the frame is black powdercoated

the engine is a GM performance 350 V8. i believe that it is still under a warranty as it has only been fired once. as far as i know we can transfer that warranty, but i do not know for sure. the exhaust is completely jet hot coated from the headers through the tail pipe. the listing says it is an inline 6, because ebay won't let me change it.

the tranny is a turbo 350 that has been rebuilt with a shift kit

the transfercase is a an NP208

axles are GM 10 bolts with outboard mounted leaf springs. is has been converted to power steering as well.

it has 17" rims with cooper discoverer tires. the rims are in good shape, the tires are used, maybe good for a summer of road driving, but not much beyond that.

here is a partial list of parts that go along with it

-new aluminum fuel cell that mounts under the rear with braided stainless lines

-3 complete and 1 disassembled leather audi bucket seats

-new painless wiring harness

-round eyes HID headlights

-locar shifter

-complete set of autometer phantom gauges

-aftermarket tilt steering column

-lots of misc other parts. i'm in the process of unpacking all the parts that we have stashed for it and ill update the listing as i have more detials.

VW targeting 10M sales in 2014

Sun, 16 Mar 2014

Volkswagen Group believes it can sell over 10 million vehicles in 2014, with hopes of overtaking Toyota as the world's largest automaker in the process. If VW can do it, it would meet that goal four years earlier than planned. Of course, Toyota isn't sitting still - it also hopes to top the 10 million-car threshold this year and has the advantage of already holding the top spot.
"With rising volume and new models, we will increasingly see positive earnings effects as well," said VW Group CEO Martin Winterkorn during its annual press conference, according to Automotive News. The company is spending huge amounts of money to propel it to the top, investing 84.2 billion euros ($117 billion) through 2018, and according to AN it plans to introduce over 100 new models worldwide among all of its brands by the end of next year.
The German automaker may get an extra boost as the European car industry shows signs of emerging from its yearlong stagnation and China continues to grow. In January, VW Group was up 8.5 percent in Europe and 15.5 percent in China, according to its own figures. However, the US has been slowing with Volkswagen brand sales down 19.04 percent in January and down 13.81 percent in February.

Toyota recalling 10k vehicles to fix wiper switches

Fri, 11 Oct 2013

Toyota has announced a voluntary recall covering approximately 10,000 cars in the United States. Affected models include the 2013-14 Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2013-14 Avalon and Avalon Hybrid, and the brand new 2014 Corolla.
The problem, as Toyota explains it, is that, "During manufacture of the wiper switch assembly in the involved vehicles, certain contacts on the switch terminal could have been manufactured incorrectly." This could lead to a short in the circuit when the wiper switch is moved between "off" and "mist," and thus, cause the windshield wipers to stop working. Not good.
Toyota will contact owners via first class mail, and the vehicles can be repaired at dealerships, free of charge. Have a look below for the automaker's official statement.

Coming Toyota Supra to forgo hybrid, get a BMW six-cylinder turbo?

Mon, Mar 30 2015

For years, almost all of the talk about the Toyota FT-1 concept becoming a resurrected Supra envisioned a hybrid under the hood. And then the latest take on Future Toyota 1 showed up at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show and - although Toyota wouldn't say a word about any engine at all - horizons began to expand. Imaginary fancies were aided by the news that Toyota had partnered with BMW to develop a sports car on the next-generation BMW Z4 platform, which would necessarily mean an engine bay designed to accept an old-fashioned hunk of gas-burning iron-working solo. Car and Driver now turns the whole thing around, reporting that there will be an inline-six with forced induction provided by BMW under the hood. What about that hybrid, though? The report states, "there's currently no indication that the Silk Road cars will offer hybrid options" - 'Silk Road' being the codename for the jointly-developed vehicles. CD makes a point to note that said tidbit came from Germany, not Japan. However, designers at Toyota's Calty studio did tell Automotive News last year that they designed the body with an inline-six in mind, a nod to the Supra's history. Hybrid rumors aren't dead yet, though - remember, we were hearing about all-wheel drive and supercapacitors in May 2014. The coupe is predicted to be a 2018 model, making its appearance sometime in 2017, and be "about 10 percent" smaller than the FT-1 concept. Related Video:
