OH What a find!!!

To find this model truck which has been acclaimed for many years as one of the best 4X4 mini trucks and by now almost all have hundreds of thousands of miles on them or have been turned into "rock crawlers" with most of the body parts removed and huge tires installed to climb the sides of mountains. This truck has the original 22R engine with a Weber carburetor, original paint and stripes, drive train and comes with air conditioning and power steering. 
 In 1982 this model truck had only been out for two years and they were getting driven off the showroom floor faster than the dealers could have them shipped in with special orders on every desk. The stout suspension was often blamed for the bouncy ride but the fault actually lies with the seat design which was simply upholstery on top of springs. I took the liberty of installing power leather seats out of a newer model Toyota 4runner and the truck now rides and drives like a new Toyota  Tacoma without the previous set of bounces after hitting a simple bump in the road. I am including the original seats which are in flawless condition. After I purchased the truck I put on original sized rims and BF Goodrich All Terrain tires, Kenwood CD player with IPOD capability, Alpine speakers and remote control, new brakes all the way around, custom shift knobs which match the color and the truck's year (original knobs will be included), Please excuse the seat cover's fresh out of the box appearance, I will adjust them and hit them with a blow dryer to make them flatten out, just bought them today....
   The base models of this series came with 4 speed transmissions and no power steering which made the driver need gorilla arms just to park it at the grocery store.
 I have purchased a new stripe kit for the truck since father time and the sunshine haven't been very kind to the stripes and the paint has a few flaws but i haven't gotten around to having them installed, they will be included with the truck.
This truck will make a fine addition to any car collection, it turns heads wherever I go and I often find notes on the windshield from people wanting to buy the truck.

Toyota Aygo stars in 'invisible driver' prank

Sat, 14 Jun 2014

We love a good automotive-themed prank. Rémi Gaillard remains a favorite, although maybe we should take a closer look at MagicOfRahat, another online prankster. Rahat, who has developed a bit of a reputation for blending in with car seats, giving the impression that there's no one behind the wheel, has taken his talents to Europe, in a new video for Toyota.
Dressed to look like the seat of the new Toyota Aygo, Rahat goes about town freaking out tollbooth operators, valets, fast food servers and even receiving a bit of unwanted attention from the police. The result is, as is usually the case with this prank, pretty darn amusing. We were kind of hoping he'd pop up and give his victims a fright, as he did in his Halloween video, but alas, that wasn't to be.
Take a look below for the full video.

Jim Lentz exposes more details behind Toyota's move to Texas

Fri, 02 May 2014

Toyota's North American CEO Jim Lentz has already given us a rough idea of what prompted the company's surprise move to the Dallas suburb of Plano, TX from its longstanding headquarters in Torrance, CA. A new story from The Los Angeles Times, though, delivers even more detail from Lentz on the reasoning for the move, what other cities were considered and why the company's current host city wasn't even in the running.
Of course, one of the more popular reasons being bandied about includes the $40 million Texas was set to give the company for the move, as well as the state's generous tax rates. According to Lentz, though, the reason Toyota chose Plano over a group of finalists made up of Atlanta, Charlotte and Denver, was far simpler than that - it was about consolidating its marketing, sales, engineering and production teams in a region that's closer to the company's seat of manufacturing in the south.
"It doesn't make sense to have oversight of manufacturing 2,000 miles away from where the cars were made," Lentz told The Times. "Geography is the reason not to have our headquarters in California."

This first-gen Toyota Celica is one mean mother

Tue, 09 Jul 2013

Brian Karasawa's gen-one Toyota Celica is, in a word, badass. As a long-standing fan of the marque, the doting owner has tried to both restore and improve his Celica keeping period-correct modifications in mind. The 20R/22R mashup engine is outputting roughly 185 horsepower and graced with a lot of JDM-specific parts and modifications. Clearly, the exhaust has been upgraded from stock, as clips of the orange Toyota in motion are accompanied by one hell of a nice sound.
Tastes clearly vary, and there's not as much love for the first-wave of Japanese metal as there is for similar era American-iron, but we're pleased to see these cars finally getting more time in the spotlight. Scroll down below to see why we're stoked, and consider cruising your local Craigslist for late 1970s and early 1980s Japanese coolness (before we get there first).
