1974 Toyota Land Cruiser Landcruiser Hardtop Winch Trades Trade-in Financing on 2040-cars

Year:1974 Mileage:64309
Location:

Nashville, Tennessee, United States

Nashville, Tennessee, United States

Up for grabs is this 1974 Toyota Land Cruiser (or Landcruiser) FJ40!  This FJ is in great mechanical shape, and the 2F engine just got a full tune-up, a new fuel filter, and an oil change.  I have been using this FJ as a daily driver, and it starts very easily and cruises on both city streets and at highway speeds easily (up to 65 mph).  It is easily to start, and all gauges function except for the oil pressure gauge (oil pressure has been checked and is in-line with normal operating ranges).   A recently completed compression test shows all cylinders to be +/-10 psi of 150 psi.  In addition to the tune-up, the FJ also has new wheel cylinders and new brakes at all four corners, as well as a new master cylinder. 

This FJ also features four nearly new Nexen 31" tires with plenty of tread, the original spare wheel is included and mount.  The hard top appears to be original.  All wipers, brake lights, and turn signals are operational, but it does not have a radio currently.  Both jump seats are present!  Original headliner also appears to be present, and it is sagging in several areas, this does not affect vision or driveability and can be easily removed. 

Tow hitch also!  As an added bonus, it has a large Warn winch mounted on the front of the vehicle, I have not personally tested this winch but it appears to have all parts present.  Front bumper appears to be custom made, and features old cases mounted on both sides.  Bumperettes in rear appear to be original. 

If you have any questions, or if you need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me on 615-300-6004 (call or text), or email me through eBay. 

Yes, there is some rust present on the body, which is why I am not asking $50,000+ for this FJ40.  This Land Cruiser has been repainted in a sky blue hue, and looking at the door jambs, it appears that it was originally sky blue.  The paint is not perfect.  Yes, this FJ has rust, this may not be the best choice of vehicle for you.  However, if you want an affordable FJ40 that starts easily, is fun to drive and one that attracts A LOT of attention, this may be the FJ you have been looking for!   FJ40's are sky-rocketing in value, and this would be an excellent truck to keep, especially if you want to rescue Jeeps!

Please do not bid if you are not serious; bids are legally binding and non-paying bidders will be fully prosecuted. 

For any serious buyer, I am happy to provide the name and number of my mechanic who performed the tune-up and inspection. 

We do take trade-ins, please contact me directly for details. 

I will end the auction early for a reasonable offer, but please do not contact me asking what the reserve is (it is set very low), or what my "bottom dollar" would be. 

We accept the following forms of payment: Cash, Personal Check, Wire Transfer (small fee applies), or Credit/Debit Cards (3% swipe fee applies).  We do charge a $199 doc fee, a .03% City of Nashville tax, and $25 to send the title to you via FedEx.  This FJ40 does have a clean/clear title in my possession, and I will only release the title after all funds are received.  We will wait seven (7) days for funds to clear if paying by personal check. 

I ship vehicles frequently, both nationally and internationally, and I can have this FJ40 delivered to your door for less than you might think.  In order to get the most accurate shipping quote, please send me your zip code for a ballpark estimate.  The FJ will be made available for shipping only after all funds have been received.

Again, please ask any and all questions BEFORE the end of the auction, my direct cell phone number is 615-300-6004. 

Thanks!

Audi investing $30.3 billion through 2018 for product expansion

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

How does Audi plan to reach two million units in annual sales and pay for the 11 new models it's adding to its lineup - an expansion that may include models named SQ2, Q9 and F-Tron? By increasing its investment to 22 billion euros ($30.3 billion US) between now and 2018. That figure represents an increase of about 500 million euros over the previously planned outlay, according to a report by Automotive News, and that could be due to Audi wishing to goad the momentum that pushed it to 1.5 million annual sales two years ahead of schedule.
It's also about staving off the challenges from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Now that BMW has been able to turn some of its attention away from its "i" series of Megacity cars, it will reportedly spend more than planned in 2014 as it continues the rollout of ten all-new vehicles and 15 new-generation vehicles through the end of next year. Mercedes, having been dropped to third in the sales race, is preparing to add 13 new cars over the next six years.
Audi's money is going into technology, into product like the next-generation TT and the Q1 and production expansions and upgrades all over the world. The expenditure represents just under a fourth of Volkswagen's 84.2 billion-euro ($115.7 US) outlay devoted to taking the number-one global automaker title away from General Motors and Toyota by 2018.

Ford Fusion production scaled back just 3 months after it was accelerated

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

Three months after kicking off production of the Ford Fusion at its Flat Rock, MI factory, Ford Motor Company is taking steps to trim output in the face of heavily discounted competition from Toyota and a growing supply of vehicles.
The addition of Fusion production in Flat Rock - which also builds the Mustang - was meant to be what pushed the handsome mid-sizer past its arch-nemesis, the Toyota Camry. An extra facility building Fusions was also meant to curb the growing demand for Ford's highly profitable sedan.
But with word that Flat Rock would take "approximately" one extra week off for the holidays combined with an 88-day supply of Fusions - reportedly due in no small part to what Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas called "aggressive discounting of the Camry" - some analysts are now beginning to wonder if Ford may have overextended itself by adding a second Fusion facility to the mix.

Toyota produces millionth truck in Texas

Thu, 19 Sep 2013

After going online in 2006, Toyota's San Antonio, Texas truck plant has just built its one-millionth vehicle, the 2014 Tundra 1794 Edition you see above. The plant originally focused on just the Tundra pickup, but the smaller Tacoma started rolling off the line there in 2010, as well.
Fittingly, the 1794 Edition (a new premium trim level for 2014) pays homage to the property on which the Toyota plant now resides - a ranch that was founded in 1794. Scroll down for the official press release for the plant's milestone, and be sure to check out the full gallery of Tundra 1794 Edition images as well.
