HERE IS A DRY SOUTHWEST NEW MEXICO LAND CRUISER.
THERE ARE PLENTY OF PICS TO SHOW THAT THIS TRUCK IS BASICALLY RUST FREE EXCEPT FOR A TINY BIT ON BACK CORNERS OF TUB. THIS TRUCK HAS HAD A CHEVY 350 CONVERSION MATED TO THE FACTORY 3 SPEED TRANNY THE TRUCK CAME WITH. THE MAN I GOT THE TRUCK FROM DID THE CONVERSION. HE BOUGHT A GOODWRENCH ENGINE FROM A CHEVROLET DEALER (I HAVE THE RECEIPT FOR THE ENGINE) . I BELIEVE THE ENGINE PROBABLY DOESN'T HAVE MORE THAN 2000 MILES ON IT. THE CRUISER RUNS AND DRIVES GOOD 4X4 WORKS AS IT SHOULD. I REPLACED THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER AND THE BREAKS ARE WORKING GREAT.
THE CRUISER HAS OVERSIZED TIRES AND SHOCKS BUT DOES NOT HAVE A LIFT KIT ON IT. IT DOES NOT HAVE POWER STEERING. DOES NOT REALLY SEEM TO NEED IT WHILE DRIVING. THE FRONT SEATS HAVE BEEN CHANGED AND ARE IN GOOD USABLE CONDITION, JUMP SEAT ARE IN VERY NICE SHAPE. THE CRUISER'S ORIGINAL COLOR WAS RED WHICH CAN BE SEEN FROM SOME OF THE FLAKED OFF GREEN PAINT. THE CURRENT PAINT JOB IS PROBABLY 10 OR 15 YEARS OLD. ALL THE GLASS IS GOOD IN THE CRUISER. IT HAS RUBBER MATS THROUGHOUT THE INTERIOR . THIS TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN RHINO LINED. THIS IS AN EXCELLENT LAND CRUISER FOR RESTORE OR JUST TO GO HAVE FUN WITH. THE SPEEDOMETER SAY AROUND 52000 MILES AND THE TITLE STATES EXEMPT SO I DON'T KNOW IF THE MILES ARE EXACT OR NOT.

AT ONE POINT I THOUGHT I WOULD LIKE TO CONVERT THE TRUCK BACK TO IT'S ORIGINAL STYLE ENGINE, SO I FOUND A GOOD SOUND ENGINE AND BOUGHT IT. IF YOU WOULD LIKE THAT ENGINE AND YOU ARE THE WINNING BIDDER I WILL SELL IT FOR WHAT I PAID FOR IT $600.00, THAT WOULD BE ABOVE THE SALE PRICE OF THE CRUISER. IF YOU ARE  THE BUYER THE ENGINE CAN BE LOADED INTO THE BACK OF THE CRUISER.

IF YOU ARE THE WINNING BIDDER:
YOU HAVE 24 HOURS TO CONTACT ME. I REQUIRE  A $1500.00 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT WITHIN 3 DAYS THE REMAINDER MUST BE PAID WITHIN 5 DAYS OF THE CLOSE OF THE AUCTION. THE ACCEPTABLE PAYMENT METHOD IS BANK WIRE OR CASH IN PERSON. THE TRUCK HAS GOOD CLEAR TITLE.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK BEFORE YOU BID, YOU ARE WELCOME TO COME CHECK THE VEHICLE OUT. YOU CAN ALSO HAVE SOMEONE ELSE COME AND INSPECT IT FOR YOU.


THANK YOU AND HAPPY BIDDING.

A few pre-race notes and a lot of photos from the 24 Hours of Le Mans

Sat, 14 Jun 2014

The 82nd running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans is on.
Audi has won 12 of the last 15 events, the scion of Auto Union is trying to make it 13 this year. To do so, it will have to overcome a situation faced only three other times during its dominance of La Sarthe: underdog status. Toyota has won the first two races of the year and claimed pole for this race, the rumor being that this year it's Toyota's race to lose.
And then there's Porsche. It's been 16 years since the Stuttgart brand raced on the top rung at Le Mans, three years years since it announced its return, just a year since it acquired Mark Webber in a signing that wasn't subtle and a few months since we got eyes on the 919 Hybrid.

Toyota to buck engine downsizing trend, may go larger and turbo-free

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

Turbocharging isn't really Toyota's specialty, and the Japanese automaker isn't being shy about acknowledging it. Koei Saga, a senior managing officer in charge of drivetrain research and development, says that eschewing turbos and increasing displacement of engines using the Atkinson cycle can produce better power gains without sacrificing fuel economy, Automotive News reports.
Toyota is investing heavily in larger-displacement Atkinson-cycle engines in addition to turbocharged engines, but Saga doesn't think the automaker will use turbocharging across many product lines. He apparently remains unconvinced that the technology "makes the world better."
In Toyota's eyes then, Atkinson cycle engines do make the world better, and here's how. Their pistons complete four processes - intake, compression, power and exhaust - in one revolution of the crankshaft, and the power stroke is longer than the compression stroke. Traditional Otto cycle engines require two crankshaft revolutions to accomplish those same four operations and have equal-length compression and power strokes. Atkinson cycle engines are more efficient, but less power dense, though increasing displacement can offset that shortfall.

Toyota plans biggest stock buyback in over a decade

Tue, 01 Apr 2014

At the end of December, 2013 Toyota had a cash stockpile of 1.8 trillion yen ($17.5B US). As of March 31, at the end of its current financial year, company coffers are expected to swallow another 1.9 trillion yen ($18.4B US) in net profit - said to be a record sum for the Japanese automaker. In a gesture signaling a turnaround from the horrors of the global recession, Bloomberg reports that Toyota will buy back 60 million shares of its stock, as much as 1.89 percent of the company, for something like 360 billion yen ($3.5B US). It's the first buyback since 2009 and the largest buyback since 2003, when it spent roughly 390 billion yen ($3.8B US) repurchasing shares.
Company president Akio Toyoda founded the Toyota Mobility Foundation (TMF), a non-profit that will support international groups working on transportation issues in emerging markets. Half of the stock that Toyota buys, 30 million shares, will be sold to the foundation via the Japanese Trustee Services Bank for one yen per share, the dividend providing the foundation's initial funding. The other 30 million shares will be canceled, a company spokesman telling Reuters that the company wants to reward shareholders.
Industry analysts have been asking Toyota to either return money to shareholders or invest in new factories, but Toyota has ruled out the latter. After getting burned with excess capacity when the financial crisis came, the company is focused on extracting efficiencies from the plants it already has. Toyota has said it plans to complete the buyback by June of this year.
