1975 Toyota FJ 40 Land Cruiser

This car is my daily driver, and has been for the past 3 years. I have enjoyed driving it around town and taking it on road trips. It has been a super reliable vehicle for me.

I am setting up this auction to determine the value of this vehicle. I have a price that I would like to get out of the vehicle, and I will set that as the reserve in this auction.

I estimate that in the first 2 years of owning this vehicle I spent approximately $25,000 in upgrades.

I have recorded a youtube video to explain all of the mechanical and cosmetic upgrades that have been done to the vehicle. The video was a little long, so it had to be split into two video clips on youtube. The links to the videos on YouTube are:

Video 2: 1975 Toyota FJ 40 Landcruiser for sale Part 2

All of the smog equipment has been removed, so if this is an issue in your state, please take note of this!

You can call me (Dave) directly at 913-207-6116 if you have any questions. However, I would request that you please watch the video(s) before calling as I have covered many details there.

The odometer shows 88,037 but this mileage will go up because it is my daily driver. Also, I do not believe that this mileage is accurate. I have no idea how many times the odometer may have turned over before I owned the vehicle. The engine was rebuilt in 2001 by the previous owner. I became the owner of this vehicle approximately 3 years ago.

I have included some pictures in this listing, however, if you are wanting any other specific pictures of the vehicle please send me an email and let me know exactly what you are looking for and I will take and send pictures for you as well!

I will only accept actual cash or a cashier's check for payment on this vehicle. Please do not expect me to be flexible on this. Ebay has it set up to accept a deposit through paypal, however, the final balance will be due at the time you come to pick up the vehicle with cash or cashiers check! I would like to have the vehicle picked up within 7 days of the auction ending. However, I understand it may take more time for some people, so please email before the ending of the auction to discuss possibilities if you think you will need extra time to get here to pick up the vehicle. If I do not receive an email from you, I will hold you to the 7 days from the end of the auction for pick up and final payment.

Tesla pulling plug on Toyota RAV4 EV battery deal

Mon, 12 May 2014

The future of the Toyota RAV4 EV appears to be in doubt. Tesla supplies the EVs battery packs, and it says that production ends later this year.
"Toyota is expected to end the current RAV4 EV model this year," Tesla said in its quarterly financial filing obtained by Bloomberg. "Our production activities under this program are expected to end in 2014," the company said.
This timeline fits closely with the original production plans for the RAV4 EV. When the $100-million project was first announced, Tesla said that it expected to supply battery packs for the vehicle from 2012 to 2014. Building components for the Japanese automaker continues to bring in money, though. In the company's Q1 2014 letter to shareholders, it said: "Automotive revenue included $15 million of Toyota powertrain sales." According to Bloomberg, Toyota has sold just 1,594 RAV4 EV models from 2012 through April 2014. Initially, the business had estimated that it would sell 2,600 units of the electrified crossover.

Toyota Tundra ditches V6 for 2015

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

The Toyota Tundra debuted in new-ish form for the 2014 model year, but as we head into 2015, the truck boasts a couple of small updates. Most notably, the base V6 engine has been discontinued. On top of that, there's the new TRD Pro model on offer for 2015, which we've told you about before.
Why kill the V6? Simple - it was very low-volume. "The Tundra V6 take rate was significantly less than five percent," a Toyota spokesperson confirmed via email to Autoblog. So for 2015, the two V8 engine options remain - a 4.6-liter unit with 310 horsepower and 327 pound-feet of torque, or the more powerful 5.7-liter powerplant with 381 hp and 401 lb-ft. Both engines are mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, and rear-wheel drive is standard. Four-wheel drive, of course, is available with either engine.
The only other noteworthy changes for 2015 include an optional integrated trailer brake for the 5.7-liter models, a new rear under-seat tray storage system for Double Cab trucks, and a spray-in bed-liner. Scroll down for the official press blast.
