ICONTOYS will become ICON40 in coming months. Most of you know, all I recycle are the 40's.  I hope all my followers will take note, and follow my Land Cruiser restorations, collection, photographs and sales to ICON40 in the future. I will maintain and sell from ICONTOYS, but will phase out this ID in the future.

I would also like to mention that ICONTOYS/ICON40 could potentially be FOR SALE and SOLD to the right individual. For details, please contact me after the auction has concluded. This would include the shop, quality paint and body professionals and name, including quality inventory.

Please check out my Photographs of all of the great 40's I have restored and owned. A couple of different photo choices are available for $49 online here at eBay.com. The photos are super large 20X30 professional stock and on quality paper. Shipped to your door.


I have several very nice Land Cruiser's that will be sold later this spring. I do not ever bring in South American 40's (no heater or roll bar in those rigs and I see a lot of them on eBay these days ) as most have been beaten and abused and then restored to "look" otherwise. I patiently wait for the best 40's that come onto the market, here in the USA. The really nice ones are few and far between and thus the higher and higher prices. These are the best you will find anywhere.

My intention this week is to list the group for sale as a "unit" with a buy now price for all vehicles. Each are legally owned by me, they are registered and titled in my name with no liens or issues. All paperwork is complete.

Yes, I would, and will most likely sell these Land Cruisers individually.

I can help arrange transport, load, and take a photo for you of the Toyota on the transport truck.

During this auction, I will answer telephone calls only, and only after the auction has ended.

Here is a list of what you see in photographs. The last several photos are of "photographs" of 40's I have owned. They are for sale as well for $49ea. And have been "altered"

1983 BJ42 Freeborn Red 70,000 original miles, 5 speed trans, 3B Diesel engine, 29 mpg.  Complete frame-off, down to bare metal.  All body soft parts, weather stripping, nuts/bolts, emblems, window channels, floor mats, seat covers, etc are new.  Everything on the BJ42 except engine items are new.  The gas engine 70k original miles and runs like new.  OME suspension.

1983 FJ40 Beige with factory Decal kit reproduced.  AC/PS full frame-off in progress.  47,000 original miles, one of a handfull of '83's available.  Completion May 1 (photo is of another FJ40 that IS NOT the actual FJ I own.  My '83 looks exactly like this body with stock with factory oval rims).

1964 FJ45 Pickup V9 Conversion, ICON maintained and services.  Flawless in-stock Lily White/Gray.  Perfect FJ45.

1976 FJ40 Dune Beige, V8 Conversion.  4 Speed with Gear Splitter. (Better than a 5 speed).  Best hwy driving FJ40 you will ever own.  OME Suspension.

1979 FJ40 AC/PS 79,000 original miles rare Sky Blue.  OME, flawless full frame-off FJ40. 

1982 FJ40 Beige, 107,000 original miles.  Frame-off, beautiful '82 that runs and drives like new.

As mentioned, I will take telephone calls only, and only after the auction is complete.  Serious buyers only please.  Thank you.

I understand the hardest part of buying something as expensive as one of these "toys" over the phone or Internet is that most buyers do not know me. I will be glad to offer a few key references before you do anything. Also, a couple of emails from previous buyers below.

Thanks again for understanding that this is a marketing campaign for people who are seeking out the best of the best Toyota Land Cruisers for this up coming spring/summer.

For those of you that I have talked to and had conversations with, specifically regarding the '83 Freeborn Red Diesel. I know you are interested, and will contact you if a deposit is needed to hold the BJ.

Please phone me after auction at 406.224.8893. Thanks, and happy bidding,

 Pete


A couple of Past buyer emails:


 Dear Peter, The Fj40 arrived last Wednesday night and was more than promised! I am delighted, it' a step back in a time capsule to the year before I got married. I really have to admit, I had some trepidation to invest what I did and then wire a large amount of money to a bank account in Montana, sight unseen, but all my fears were unnecessary, because all was carried out as promised by you. You were honest and professional, and I feel like I now have a "friend" in Montana! I also appreciated the way you followed up after the sale with me to make sure you answered any questions and that I was satisfied. I am glad to give you a strong and well deserved recommendation. All the best, Jose P.



I just wanted to thank you for all the work you put into getting me my FJ40 on time.  I can honestly say that, at the beginning of the process, I was a little nervous making such a large purchase over the Internet and through phone calls.  In the end, it turned out great and I love my new truck.  I really appreciate all of the communication through the build; the email, the phone calls and the pictures.  It not only made things easy to schedule, it gave me a real sense for the quality you build into your restorations.  I am also impressed with all of the documentation you provided in that it made crossing the border and registering the vehicle hassle free; well, as hassle free as that process can get.  Please feel free to use me as a reference for future clients.  


The last 7 photographs are "photographs for sale" not the rigs....they now belong to new owners.

2023 Japan Mobility Show Mega Photo Gallery: All the highlights and reveals from Tokyo

Fri, Oct 27 2023

The 2023 Japan Mobility Show managed to serve up a surprise heap of exciting and futuristic designs and production reveals. Our staff was on the ground in Tokyo for this year's show, where we captured not just all of the latest automotive trends, but some genuinely weird and fascinating stuff.  Browse: Some Delightful Oddities of the 2023 Japan Mobility Show But on to the cars. This year's show featured introductions from Daihatsu, Honda, Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Suzuki and Toyota. Some are weird; some are wild; most are probably destined to change significantly before production or merely fade into the void with the rest of the industry's vaporware, but if even a few of these make it to showrooms, we'll consider it a win. Scroll on down for our live galleries of each of the show's major debuts (and cars we're only now seeing in person for the first time).

Toyota's future fuel cell vehicle lineup revealed?

Wed, Aug 26 2015

Being an Olympic sponsor from 2017 through 2024 puts Toyota in the international limelight, and the company is preparing a fleet of efficient, cutting-edge vehicles just in time for the Tokyo games in 2020. At least eight new models could be on the way, according to Automotive News citing Best Car from Japan. Three of those might make use of the hydrogen fuel-cell powertrain developed for the Mirai. While many of these fuel cells are going into Japan-only vehicles, one of them could come here. Reiterating earlier rumors, Automotive News reports a hydrogen-powered Lexus LS is set for 2018. It could be even lighter than the current hybrid model, too. A similar version of the Toyota Crown would launch there in 2019 and possibly an FCEV Estima minivan, too. Beyond fuel cells, Toyota also intends to put the JPN Taxi Concept from the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show into production in time for the games, according to Automotive News. For 2017, the brand's flagship Century is also expected to adopt a hybrid V8 to replace the current V12, as well. Plus, many of its Japanese-market vans are also due for updates. All of this is certainly a massive undertaking to be ready in time, but Tokyo want to use the games as a chance to show the city as an innovative, international destination. Automotive News predicts Toyota could supply thousands of vehicles to haul all of the athletes and dignitaries around. In addition, the Japanese government wants 6,000 fuel cell vehicles on the road and 35 refueling stations up an running for the games. Related Video:

Takata air bag recall list

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.
