THIS IS  project 1988 Toyota 4 runner.

To explain we got this Toyota 4 runner in an auction. we could only look at it for 5 minutes.

To be honest I'm fairly familiar with mechanics, grew up in the garage... The guy who owned this thing was building it to be a crazy mud buggy or some kind of off road racer. To be frank, I THINK 250-450.00 MORE DOLLARS I BELIEVE YOU'D HAVE SOME KIND OF CRAZY MACHINE HERE.

First of all, there's a 350 from mid 1970's-80's with truck heads on it. I think it was recently re=done. The seals and gaskets are fresh. It might be a crate motor, then again maybe not.

There's a brand new intake air =induct.

There's a brand new Elderbrock 650 carberator on it. We've got the box.

There's a B&M SHIFTER hooked up. Brand new.

The drivetrain is all hooked up.

There's a conversion plate hook up from chevy to Toyota/ probably around 1200.00

Brand new Tach on the dash.

Brand new gauges on the left windshield arm.

Brand new wheels that fits 33's Mickey Thompsons. Needs tires, though.

It has all the seats. And various miscellaneous parts.

Anyway, it needs a project mechanic that loves this kind of stuff. With a little more effort it would get fired up and go.

Although*** Please read**** we got this at an auction sale. What we have here for sale is in "as is" condition. Can't and wont guarantee anything on this vehicle. It has no title and no key.

Or maybe this would be a great parts car for someone.

priced fair for the parts alone. we have no interest in her, so we want it to got to a good home. will need to be hauled. it is in a garage now, safe from bad weather.

will help load if necessary.

no title, just bill of sale. we didn't get a title.

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 recalling 20k 2014 and 2015 cars and CUVs with 3.5L engines

Thu, 18 Sep 2014

Toyota has announced a recall of roughly 20,000 vehicles covering the 2014 Avalon, Camry, Highlander (pictured) and Sienna, as well as the 2015 Lexus RX luxury crossover. The affected vehicles are all powered the 2GR-FE engine, which in layman's terms, is Toyota's well-regarded 3.5-liter V6.
According to Toyota's statement, a parts supplier might not have welded "the end cap on the right-hand fuel delivery pipe in the engine compartment" correctly, meaning fuel could leak. Leaking fuel, of course, increases the chance of an engine fire. That said, no fires, crashes or injuries have been reported due to the issue.
Owners will be notified to report to dealers, where techs will check the fuel delivery pipe and fit a replacement part as necessary.

400-hp Toyota Hybrid-R Concept gets second teaser

Tue, 13 Aug 2013

Toyota has released a second teaser of its Hybrid-R Concept, along with an estimation of the show car's power output. Using technology that's "similar to that used by Toyota Racing's TS030 Hybrid race car," the concept is expected to deliver over 400 horsepower.
The press release also mentions that the new concept is based on a current production model. While it's difficult to tell from the sole teaser image of the car's body, rumors are flying that it's related to the Yaris. If that's the case, though, it's difficult to know what to make of this concept. The teaser image is quite dark, but we played around with the exposure and came up with an image that reveals more details about the new concept. Take a look at the related gallery, below, to see the high-exposure image. We'll find out for certain what the Hybrid-R is in a few weeks at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Let us know what you think Toyota's newest concept is in the comments.
