Okay..here is a better description of the FJ. What you are looking is an unmolested FJ. This vehicle is titled as a 1964 as identifed on the vin plate. The vin plate identifies the vin as a 3FJ40-18648 which indicates the vehicle is a 1963. Because of the early production on this FJ it has some interesting characteristics rarely seen. One, is the scissor rear door with dual windows and the other is the factory vent in the roof. My research on this vehicle (Spector Off-Road, industry "experts" and Forums) leads me to the conclusion the FJ is one of the last FJs produced in 1963 so therefore has the cosmetic characteristics of a 63 but is actually a 64. If you are looking for a cool FJ that will set you apart from the other FJs this is the vehicle for you. If you are a FJ enthusiast looking for a great one then dont miss this FJ.
Other than the ugly paint job the FJ's body is in pretty much unmolested condition. This FJ40 has spent the last 30+ years in Arizona so there is almost no rust. When I got the title it showed it was previously issued in AZ almost 30 years ago. The FJ40 runs, drives, and stops. I have been driving it almost everyday. The transmission is a three speed on the column and the engine is the six cylinder (not original but is a "F") The FJ has been painted three or four times but I believe the original color was red. At some point it was red, blue, white, and now gray. The interior dash and interior door panels were painted green with rustoleum spray paint so it looks pretty ugly.
The lights, choke, turn signals, and wipers all work. The window regulator on the driver's side needs repaired/replaced and the master cylinder has a slow leak. I will probably fix the master cylinder before the sell of vehicle. The tires have only been driven a few hundred miles. I can not see anywhere that the body or suspension has been modified. The FJ can easily be a daily driver or is perfect for a full restoration. If it is restored you will save a bunch of time without all the rust repair that generally comes with FJs. I also have the original tool kit and jack in the canvas bag but they would be a separate purchase.

Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?
Thu, 15 Nov 2012Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.
Toyota RAV4 "Adventure" brings the butch
Tue, 05 Mar 2013Just last week, your humble author had a 2013 Toyota RAV4 in his garage, and he couldn't help noting that even in mid-level XLE trim, its aesthetics lacked oomph, due in large part to its cheap-looking black bumpers and airy-looking wheel wells. Judging by the RAV4 "Adventure" on display at the Geneva Motor Show, someone at Toyota must've been thinking the same thing.
With Japan's biggest automaker understandably focused on bigger reveals, information on this butched-up softroader has proven to be hard to come by, with no press materials whatsoever. We don't even know if this is a pure concept or if it's actually being considered for production. Either way, we approve. The 20-inch dark-finish alloys probably don't do much for ride quality, but they certainly look nicely aggressive, as does the new lower fascia with its prominent lower lip. Other changes include beefier wheel arches, side rails, headlamps with integrated LEDs, twin-element fog lamps and mesh grille inserts. All of the changes are quite well integrated - enough so that the Adventure largely avoids looking like a SEMA refugee in person.
Toyota announces GT86 CS-R3 rally car
Mon, 11 Nov 2013Toyota Motorsport GmbH has developed cars for all manner of racing, up to and including Formula One and Le Mans. But it got its start back in 1979 in rally competition, winning four drivers' and three manufacturers' titles in the World Rally Championship. And now it's announced a new rally car.
Based on the Toyota GT86 (better known to us as the Scion FR-S), the CS-R3 rally car isn't built to contest the top tier of the WRC, but is being developed to conform to the lower R3 class. That means a six-speed sequential gearbox, limited slip differential and upgraded engine, brakes, aero... the works. It'll retain the road-going model's rear-drive setup, joining the front-drive Yaris R1A in TMG's portfolio of customer rally cars.
Further details are set to be revealed "in the coming months", but the GT86 CS-R3 will benefit from the experience TMG accrued in developing the GT86 CS-V3 (pictured above) for the Nürburgring-based VLN endurance racing series.
