1976 Toyota Fj40 Land Cruiser on 2040-cars
Spearfish, South Dakota, United States
Great original, uncut 1976 FJ 40. Original owner from Idaho, did absolutely no mods to the Cruiser except had a sunroof installed profesionally the same year he bought it. Sunroof does NOT leak at all! Original headliner still looks perfect. Eventually sold to a couple who ranch in Wyoming. They kept the Cruiser original except for adding fender flares WITHOUT cutting the fenders. Fenders are uncut and original. They also installed diamond plate. I have removed the fender flares and diamond plate in the interest of full disclosure. There is some rust in the rear bottom corners and rear sill, though not nearly as bad as some I have seen. Easily repairable. This Cruiser has way less than the normal rust. I injured my knee last fall and have been rehab all winter so haven't done anything to it other than put new tires on it. Still has the caked Wyoming dirt on drivers side floor. So in the pics you are seeing dirt, NOT rust! Now it has to go because at age 56 my knee is not healing as it should and I just can't work on vehicles anymore. I drove it 370 miles from Wyoming to my home in South Dakota. The floor boards front and back are all solid. Some surface rust on rear bed I have pictured, but NOT cancerous rust thru. The drivers side floorboards still have the sound batting that was commonly installed in the 1970's. Mechanically runs great! Transmission shifts smoothly, four wheel drive works great, engine starts and runs awesome. No cracked or broken glass. As I said, I drove it from Wyomng 370 miles with no problems. I purchased the following NEW parts that will go with the vehicle: A. 2 1/2 inch ProComp suspension lift springs B. 4 New ProComp Shocks C. New Black Shock Boots D. New U Bolts E. New Bushings F. New SkyJacker Steering Stabilizer. G. New Dash Pad New parts total over $1100 plus $800 for the New 33 x 10.50 x 15 BFG All Terrain KO's Shipping is your responsibility, but I am happy to assist your shipper by being available whenever needed.

Couple survives 50-foot fall from overpass in Toyota
Tue, 11 Feb 2014It doesn't matter the make or model - modern vehicles are technological miracles when it comes to occupant protection. Take this story out of New York City, which involved two people going for a very wild ride in a Toyota Matrix.
Carlos and Raquel Broadbelt were on the Cross Bronx Expressway overpass when they hit a patch of ice while dodging a pothole, sending them hurtling into a guardrail and over the side of the overpass. They fell 50 feet onto the road below. Despite the catastrophic accident - and the mangled Toyota - both driver and passenger walked away. The couple spent a night in the hospital just for observation.
The Broadbelts' miraculous survival has even surprised doctors, who told Dave Carlin from CBS New York they'd never seen an accident like it. Take a look below for the full news report from CBS New York.
Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]
Wed, 15 Jan 2014This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.
How new car shortages may impact your buying experience
Wed, 04 Sep 2013If you want further proof that the auto industry is bouncing back, look no further than the empty lots and forecourts of your local dealership. According to a story by The Wall Street Journal, continued high demand for mainstream cars is overtaxing automakers' ability to produce enough models. Several dealers interviewed for the story are reporting two-week supplies as opposed to the typical two-month allocations.
With sales expected to hit 1.4 million units when August numbers arrive shortly and incentive spending down to its lowest amount since January, these limited supplies are pushing prices even higher. For example, according to the WSJ, the average price of a Ford Fusion is up past $26,000. Unfortunately, it's difficult for manufacturers to increase production quickly. If it invests in its facilities, as many manufacturers have done, it risks wasting cash if growth suddenly slows. At the same time, the momentum gained over the past several years could be short lived if vehicle supplies continue to dwindle. "Manufacturers are in a precarious situation," notes Karl Brauer, a senior director at Kelley Blue Book.
Low interest rates and a wealth of desirable features are also allowing customers to purchase more expensive vehicles while justifying their higher overall price tags, a situation that is compounding supply shortages. Even now, during the annual end-of-summer clearance season, deals on new vehicles are remarkably difficult to come by. According to the report, the Toyota Corolla is in a self-inflicted state of shortage, as Toyota clears out inventory in anticipation of the new 2014 generation arriving in dealers. Ford's supplies should rebound as Fusion production comes on line at its Flat Rock, Michigan factory. The Chevrolet Impala, Honda Odyssey, Civic, and Accord and Subaru Forester are also facing shortages.
