           Up for auction is my 1985 Toyota FJ60 Land Cruiser.  Chances are if your looking at this you already know what awesome vehicles these can be.  I purchased this mid summer wanting to restore it but I have since changed my mind to wanting a 80 Series Cruiser instead.  This LC has had 2 previous owners and has been in Ohio its whole life.  Fortunately when it was new the owner took it to Tuff-Kote Dinol and had the entire truck undercoated.  This has kept the frame and undercarriage in good shape over the years.  Dont get me wrong it does have rust but no bad scaling or broken frame pieces like you might expect for a Cruiser in Ohio.  As you can see from pics the body has some rust and holes but nothing that couldn't be fixed.   I lifted carpet and looked at usual trouble spots around wheel wells and this area is in very good shape.  Inside back sill by tailgate is rust free as well.  
 
           This LC is not currently road ready.  It has not run in a couple years at least.   Previous owner said last time it ran was in 2008 or so.  She couldnt really remember.  I poured some gas down the carb a couple days ago and filled the float bowl so the sight window was full and then tonight I checked oil for any moisture and it was clean and moisture free so I put a battery in it and she fired right up.  Got it to idle for a few seconds while my buddy poured gas into the carb.  Motor sounded good and I think with a carb clean or possible rebuild it will be good to go.  The gas tank was empty as well.  I put a container of dry gas in it along with about 2 gallons of gas and the gauge went up slightly.  I loosened the fuel inlet line at the carb and some gas did spray out so its getting to carb.  I'd guess the float or needle is stuck from sitting.  I havent dug into it any further yet.  I did notice the choke cable is froze and will need replaced or lubed.  It looks like all SMOG equipment is still installed too.  You can tell by the shape of the interior that this LC has led a pretty easy life.  All body mounting points and frame crossmembers are in good  shape.  Inner fenders  etc etc are all solid.  All windows roll down and all doors lock.  The back door opens and locks as it should too.  Both bumpers are in decent shape and the truck has a hitch and is wired for a plug too.  When pushing in the clutch it has a good feel to it though I havent driven it yet.   Looking around under the truck it appears to have newer brake lines and the fuel supply lines are in good shape as far as I can tell.  I think this LC is a great candidate to save and fix the body and drive it for many years to come.   

           The interior is in really nice shape.  The carpet and seats have a few stains but with a good shampoo and vacuum they would be respectable as is.  The headliners nice and tight too.  All gauges appear to work and it has an aftermarket radio in it as well as an auxilary cigarette lighter outlet for a GPS or cell phone car charger.  All heater functions work and the blowers work too.  This LC has the rear heater in it too.  All wipers work and the front washers work too.  All lights and turn signals work as they should as well.  This LC also has cruise control.  Please checkout the pics and let me know if you have questions.  I am looking to move this quickly so if you have an offer please dont be shy, worst I'll say is no.  If you have an 80 series to trade let me know too.  

           Let me know if you have any questions and I will do my best to answer them.  I can work with you on shipping.  I have included a USHIP link in this auction so you can get an estimated cost from them if the LC needs transported. I have for sale locally and I do reserve the right to end auction for local sale.  Cash upon pickup is good or wire transfer or Paypal is good too.  I can take credit cards too.   Clean paper in hand.  **This is being relisted due to a nonpaying buyer on the last auction.  If you dont intend to pay then dont bid, its really pretty simple.  Pls dont waste my time and I wont waste yours**  Thank You for looking and good luck!

2014 Toyota Highlander recalled over seatbelt anchors

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Toyota has announced a small recall of its redesigned, 2014 Highlander over issues with one of its seat belts. The affected vehicles, which were built from November 20, 2013 to January 18, 2014, could have a seatbelt assembly in the middle seat of the third row that wasn't properly secured to a floor anchorage at the factory.
In total, 7,067 of the new Highlanders are included in the recall, which was discovered not after a crash, but during a post-build inspection at the factory. It's unclear if there have been any injuries as a result of the faulty seat belts.
Toyota is set to inform owners of the affected vehicles as well as dealers with the recalled Highlander models in their inventory. Naturally, repairs will be performed free of charge. For the full bulletin form the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, scroll down.

Toyota recalling 800k Camry, Avalon and Venza models for AC issue

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

Toyota has announced plans to voluntarily recall 803,000 vehicles from model years 2012 and 2013, over concerns with the air conditioning condenser housing. The recall covers the Camry, Camry Hybrid, Avalon, Avalon Hybrid and Venza, although the exact split between affected models wasn't available.
According to Toyota, the condenser can leak onto an airbag control module, which in turn could cause a short circuit. In most cases, this will just lead to an airbag warning light, but in rarer instances, the airbags could fail to deploy or pop out of their own accord. There's also a concern over a loss of power steering if the airbag control module develops a short.
It's unclear if there have been any injuries or crashes relating to the defects. Toyota will begin informing owners of affected vehicles via first class mail, and will ask them to report to dealerships for recall work, involving the installation of a cover on the condenser housing.

Toyota mini doc chronicles Tundra towing Space Shuttle Endeavor

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Toyota has worked up a quick video detailing the brand's involvement in the transportation of the Space Shuttle Endeavour last year. As you may recollect, the California Science Center ran into a hitch when it came to moving Endeavour from LAX to its new home. While most of the route would be covered by a robotically controlled transporter, one portion of the route directed the shuttle over an interstate. Unfortunately, the bridge across wasn't designed to stand up to the weight of the shuttle and its motorized sled.
The Science Center would have to remove Endeavour from its transporter and place it on a lighter, non-motorized sled. That's where longtime Science Center sponsor Toyota came in. As it turns out, the automaker had to prove to the California Science Center that a Tundra could actually tow the massive shuttle, so engineers put on a little demonstration with a stock truck pulling the equivalent weight over flat ground for the same distance. Once the Science Center was satisfied that the Tundra could pull it off, the move was green lit and the rest is history. Check out the short documentary below for yourself.
