Tampa, Florida, United States

Update 7/22/2014. Truck just cleared Colombian inspections now and is scheduled to ship on the freighter Friday with estimated arrival July 31, 2014. Truck then will need to clear US customs in the following week and ship one day to Tampa. Estimating August 7th through the 10th. $5000 deposit holds this truck for your inspection. 

Truck is a 1982 not a 1980.  Truck is in a container being shipped into Tampa, Florida arriving around August 10, 2014.  The truck will be titled in Florida or can be titled in the buyer's state.  Truck has no emissions equipment like the USA models for 1982 so we will need to confirm your state's regulations. Most regulations have a model year waiver.

The VIN number will be the chassis number which is FJ40359271. 

Volcan 4x4, LLC based in Tampa, FL and Medellin, Colombia brings this very exciting truck to the US market. The truck is named Pacho. This is a rare late model 1982 FJ40. 

Approximately 700 FJ40s were imported into the US in 1982 making this a collectable truck.

We sourced this truck from an airline pilot who upgraded the truck and kept it garaged. 

This truck has thousands of dollars in accessories and upgrades. Volcan 4x4 then spent 30 days overhauling what was already a very clean truck. 

This truck has:

4 inch Rough Country lift kit with gas charged shocks
5 90% tread 285/75/16 mud tires (33 inch tires)
5 black alloy rims
new AISIN hubs
4 speed H41 transmission with 4.10 gears (Colombian spec)
vent windows
7 passenger layout with newer vinyl. door panels are new.
custom roll bar
working AC
pioneer stereo with new speakers
power windows
performance header and brand new oversized exhaust with stainless steel muffler
custom bumper with WARN winch
Reese hitch
newer battery
4 drum brakes (recently reviewed)
power steering with custom leather covered steering wheel
custom fitted vinyl floor mats with new insulation up front
floors rust free and recently textured painted in beige
new rear half doors
2 coats of new black protective paint under the truck

This truck starts immediately and sounds fantastic with the header and exhaust. Not too loud but powerful. This is the most powerful and quickest truck in our fleet. This Pacho powers up the local 8000 foot Colombian highway in 3rd gear where the other trucks had to drop to 2nd. Steers straight and stops well. The ride is tight/hard due to the lift kit. 

Truck will be sold mileage exempt via Florida law due to the model year but given some Colombian documents and working odometer looks to be 176,000 miles.

The paint is very nice in original code Dune Beige. It has a touch of pearl white in it. There is a slight scratch on the driver's side but overall very clean. Painted black under the fenders.

Very handsome truck gets a LOT of attention. 

Compression test was in the 120 range. This truck outperforms another truck that we had in the 150 range. Very strong motor.

A $5000 refundable deposit to Volcan 4x4, LLC secures this truck until it arrives in Tampa. Truck is priced aggressively in the market at $35,900. This is our 5th truck since we started Volcan 4x4 and we price the trucks to sell quickly before or within 30 days once they reach the US.  We have the advantage of being able to pick among very nice rust free Colombian FJs. This is a fantastic late model lifted FJ40.

Couple survives 50-foot fall from overpass in Toyota

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

It 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.

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.

VW targeting 10M sales in 2014

Sun, 16 Mar 2014

Volkswagen Group believes it can sell over 10 million vehicles in 2014, with hopes of overtaking Toyota as the world's largest automaker in the process. If VW can do it, it would meet that goal four years earlier than planned. Of course, Toyota isn't sitting still - it also hopes to top the 10 million-car threshold this year and has the advantage of already holding the top spot.
"With rising volume and new models, we will increasingly see positive earnings effects as well," said VW Group CEO Martin Winterkorn during its annual press conference, according to Automotive News. The company is spending huge amounts of money to propel it to the top, investing 84.2 billion euros ($117 billion) through 2018, and according to AN it plans to introduce over 100 new models worldwide among all of its brands by the end of next year.
The German automaker may get an extra boost as the European car industry shows signs of emerging from its yearlong stagnation and China continues to grow. In January, VW Group was up 8.5 percent in Europe and 15.5 percent in China, according to its own figures. However, the US has been slowing with Volkswagen brand sales down 19.04 percent in January and down 13.81 percent in February.
