Rare Left Hand Drive 1984 Fj45 Troop Carrier on 2040-cars
Norfolk, Virginia, United States
Rare Left Hand Drive 1984 FJ45 Troop Carrier Please note that the VIN # in the description above is not for this car. EBAY's system was not recognizing the actual VIN. See picture of the vehicle's title with VIN #. This Left Hand Drive Troopy is registered in Virginia. I
bought the truck almost ten years ago and have been working on it off and on
since. The tub has had all bad metal cut out and replaced. The wheel wells, in
order to make more space in the back for forward seating, were shortened on the
inside of the vehicle and original Toyota wheel well panels were put back in.
The inside of the tub is fully line-xed as well as the underside and firewall. It is painted in an original Toyota color from the 1960s
called Horizon Blue. The color code is T808. Of course, the new owner can
change the color. Due to being in storage over the last year, the paint has
several scratches. I have some of the paint left, but it can be ordered at any
auto paint supply store. I have gathered extensive parts for the rebuild of this
vehicle. I have all window seals, all glass, and window hardware. The front and
back doors have all new mechanicals and regulators. I have a 1984 Head Rest
Roll bar. Also, the vehicle has installed a brand new, never used,
Toyota OEM speedometer and an original never used 1984 FJ40 Steering Wheel.
Both items were secured in the Middle East from a dealership that was selling
off its old Toyota parts. I also have a rare front 2/3 OEM Split Bench which
will need to be upholstered. New Fenders as well. The Fiberglass Top is in good shape,
but it not perfect. New owner may want to replace outside metal ring if you
want perfect, but otherwise it is usable right away. Frame has been worked on and gusset and a couple of mounts
replaced. It is in great shape. Please note, I have no mechanicals, that part you will have to source yourself. The vehicle is not perfect, and I would not say it is
“showroom.” But it is solid and is ready for someone else to take over, I have
too may other projects and not enough time to finish this out. There are other parts as well, and please call if you have
any questions. 757-375-5890. Thanks. |

2018 Ford Expedition vs other big SUVs: How it compares on paper
Fri, Nov 10 2017With our Alex Kierstein rightly impressed in his first-drive review of the new 2018 Ford Expedition, we decided to dig a little deeper into the numbers, and we came up with the spreadsheet below to highlight how the new 2018 Expedition compares on paper to its main full-size SUV competitors: the 2018 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban (and therefore the 2018 GMC Yukon), 2018 Toyota Sequoia and 2018 Nissan Armada. We also threw in the new, even bigger 2018 Chevrolet Traverse since, as you'll see, its massive dimensions should put it on the radar for anyone who needs loads of passenger and cargo space but doesn't care as much about towing. A few notes about the chart above. First, the 6.2-liter V8 that's included with the new-for-2018 Tahoe RST trim level is the standard engine on the GMC Yukon Denali. You can apply most of the Tahoe's numbers to the entire Yukon and Yukon XL lineup. Second, though we highlighted categories where the Traverse led, we also highlighted the runner-up full-size SUV, since this was ultimately about that segment. Traverse numbers are broadly applicable to the new Buick Enclave.

Consumer Reports says Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevy are big winners in brand perception survey
Wed, 05 Feb 2014According to Consumer Reports, the automotive brands that stand out in the minds of car buyers are, in order: Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevrolet. This news comes after the magazine polled its readers, asking them to take into account vehicle quality, safety, performance, value, fuel economy, design/style, and technology/innovation - which are the factors that car shoppers are most influenced by.
It's important to note that this award is only about perception. In other words, it's perceived quality, not actual quality. "Often, perception can be a trailing indicator, reflecting years of good or bad performance in a category, and it can also be influenced by headlines in the media," said Jeff Bartlett, Consumer Reports deputy automotive editor.
The brand that made the biggest jump in perception amongst Consumer Reports readers is Tesla, which posted an impressive 47-point gain to finish in fifth place. Subaru is also notable for finishing in the top 10, despite being one of the smaller manufacturers doing business in the US. Scroll down below for all the details from Consumer Reports, if you're so inclined.
