1974 Toyota Land cruiser FJ40

Frame off Restoration. Body off. RestoMod. Motor Swap. Restored. Crate Motor. 15k miles. Fuel injected. All new electrical.

Low Reserve- This should bring 30k$...Daily Driver!

This is a great Toyota Land cruiser FJ40, it looks great, its dialed in mechanically and drives wonderfully.  Best fj value on ebay right now. With its fuel injected crate motor it will crawl down the trail or cruise (well) over highway speeds.  I drive it often up and down the highway to work or out on the town.  It tracks straight, brakes perfectly (all wheel are disc), shifts smooth and has no slack in the steerding.  The Land cruiser has a pronounced sound, with a nice deep growl produced by the crate 350 with headers and true dual side pipes.  It is tagged, titled and inspected.  All lights, electrical and gauges work too.  The truck has 15,000 miles since its nut and bolt restoration.

The FJ has had a number of modifications.  The process began as a frame off project from the ground up.  All components were new or improved. The frame was sand blasted and epoxy painted. Suspension, bushings and body mounts replaces.  The drive train was imported using a crate Chevrolet chevy 350, using an edelbrock fuel injection system. The transfer case and 4 speed transmission are rebuilt Toyota OEM, with 2 speed overdrive, I’ve honestly never had components shift so smooth and easy, the transfercase glides in (most you have to double pump clutch and man handle it into 4wd). It drives as well as a new jeep, but looks and performs much better...

Also the Seats, gauges, dash, etc are all new… The paint and body work has just been completed, no rust or damage. The autometer gauges set on stainless steel dash operates perfectly.  All the electrical has been replaced using painless wiring system, the ignition is a push to start, hidden in the tuffy’s locking console with radio and amplifier hidden.

Toyota Tacoma helps stand up to your girlfriend, mimes, magicians and the Grim Reaper

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

It takes a lot to get a product noticed in today's fast-paced world, but one avenue that's always seemed to grab the eyeballs of consumers has been humor. Toyota knows this rule well, and has put together a quartet of spots called "Tacoma Wins," in which the midsize pickup's features and specifications best a number of seemingly worthy competitors.
Whether it be sobbing girlfriends, a circus magician, a grim reaper or the scariest thing of all, a mime, the Tacoma looks well equipped to deal with it. Take a look below for all four of Toyota's newest spots.

Subaru Indiana plant to stop building Toyota Camry

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

Subaru may be set to end production of the Toyota Camry at its Lafayette, IN facility by 2017, according to a report from the Louisville Journal-Courier and a CBS affiliate in Columbia, South Carolina. Speaking to the plant's Executive Vice President Tom Easterday, the whole affair sounds like a done deal.
"Based on changes in Toyota's production plans, they have decided that the award-winning Camry production contract will not be renewed," Easterday said. Easterday was quick to emphasize that just because Camry production would end, doesn't mean jobs will be lost. "There will be no loss of jobs at SIA as a result of this," he said, before adding that the loss of Camry production will have no impact Subaru's $400 million investment to ready the plant for Impreza production in 2016. That said, adding a promised 900 jobs may take longer than originally planned, as Camry production staff are set to be retrained on Subaru production.
SIA currently has the capacity to produce 100,000 Camrys per year, and began production of the family sedan in 2007 alongside production of the Subaru Outback, Legacy and eventually, the soon-to-be-discontinued Tribeca.

Audi outlasts rivals to win 13th Le Mans title

Sun, 15 Jun 2014

As is so often the case, the 2014 Le Mans was a war of attrition, and Audi managed to prevail once again after all 24 hours had been recorded in the history books, with its Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro claiming first and second places, followed by Toyota in third. Drivers Marcel Fassler, Andre Lotterer and Benoit Treluyer inherited the lead in their No. 2 Audi after the No. 7 Toyota, driven by pole-sitter Kazuki Nakajima, was forced to retire with electrical problems in the 15th hour.
The No. 2 Audi led the race until it was forced to the pits to replace a turbocharger in the 17th hour, allowing the No. 1 Audi, driven by Lucas di Grassi, Marc Gene (who was a last-minute replacement for Loic Duval, who crashed hard during practice) and defending champion Tom Kristensen, led the race until the 21st hour, when it too had to pit with turbocharger issues. This gave the No. 20 Porsche of Timo Bernhard, Brendon Hartley, and Mark Webber the lead until it was forced off the track with gearbox problems, eventually finishing in 38th position.
In LMP2, the Jota Sport Zytek Z11SN-Nissan driven by Simon Dolan, Harry Tincknell and Oliver Turvey claimed victory, the first five LMP2 finishers all powered by Nissan. Down a level in GTE-Pro, No. 51 AF Corse Ferrari 458 Italia GT2 driven by Gianmaria Bruni, Toni Vilander and Giancarlo Fisichella finished one lap ahead of the leading Corvette Racing C7.R. And finally, the No. 95 Aston Martin Racing Vantage GTE driven by Kristian Poulsen, David HeinemeierHansson and Nicki Thiim won the GTE-Am race two laps ahead of a Proton Porsche 911 GT3 RSR.
