1999 Toyota Hilux Surf (4runner)
Own your dream! A diesel Toyota 4runner! This vehicle was converted using the complete drivetrain from a 2000
Toyota Hilux Surf from Japan. It is the normal left hand drive for this country. It was previously registered in
Oregon. It now has 150k on diesel drivetrain. It only had 100K miles when converted. All of the maintenance has
been done on this vehicle including all new fluids, timing belt, water pump etc. This truck needs nothing except a
new owner!
The body and interior are very clean. Paint is almost a perfect ten! Everything works as normal including AC, CD,
cruise control, sun roof, electric antenna, CD player all power windows and door locks. This vehicle has a dual
mode 4WD system. You can switch to all wheel drive mode or locked 4WD mode. This 4runner is very rare because its a
5 speed manual. The diesel came this way from Japan which is also very rare, most all of them are automatic
transmission. It received a brand new clutch when the truck was converted. The truck shows 240k miles on the speedo
currently. This is not miles of the complete drivetrain but just the body and frame etc.
The front ARB bumper, Pro Comp rims and tires are only two years old! It has nice Bilstein adjustable struts up
front giving it a slight lift. The roof rack is also 2 years old. It has a Tow hitch and wiring.
This truck has great power and fuel economy. Its perfect for family's or someone who loves diesels and/or Toyota's,
or both! It runs great on Biodiesel because these trucks have no lift pump and a very good quality fuel filter. I
have receipts on all the work that has been performed by Import Performance, Inc. in Bend, Oregon. This truck was
built for 30 grand! Please e-mail for questions.

1967 Toyota 2000GT most expensive Asian car ever sold at $1.2M
Fri, 10 May 2013Toyota's agelessly beautiful 2000GT has been sold by RM Auctions for $1.16 million, making it the new record holder for the most expensive Asian car ever sold. As always, rarity played a big factory in driving up the price; just 351 2000GT models were built, and only 62 left-hand-drive cars (like this one). The classic Toyota, standout member of Texas car-collector Don Davies' paddock, was originally a US-delivery car that spent time in a collection back in a Japan before returning to Texas just a short time ago. The car last sold in March of 2011, for just $650,000.
Enthusiasts will recognize the 2000GT as perhaps the most heralded Japanese classic of all time. The Toyota was a contemporary of the Jaguar E-Type - though one that obviously sold in a fraction of the English car's numbers - that was well reviewed by the motoring press of the day. Sometimes referred to as Japan's first supercar, the 2000GT boasted a 150-horsepower, dual overhead cam, 2.0-liter straight-six engine; a five-speed manual transmission; and a reported top speed of over 135 miles per hour.
RM described this record-setting example as, "the finest and most authentic 2000GT to come to market in recent years," equating it with blue chip classic exotics like the Ferrari Daytona and Lamborghini Miura.
Toyota releases teaser for Kaley Cuoco Super Bowl ad
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Toyota has released a 35-second teaser video for its upcoming Super Bowl spot staring Kaley Cuoco, the actress best known for her role as object-of-nerd-affection Penny on The Big Bang Theory. The real star of the ad, however, is its soundtrack, the 1995 hit "I Wish" by rapper Skee-Lo that will have your mind cashing nostalgia checks the moment it hits your ears.
We still don't know much about the content, plot or story of this Super Bowl commercial, though we can say that its object of promotion is likely the new RAV4 we see Ms. Cuoco driving in this teaser. The rest of the time she's walking the street in a purple getup granting wishes like Robin Williams on a Disney sound stage. And then the Easter Bunny and a chihuahua enter the picture and we get lost. Clint Eastwood under a bridge this is not.
But hey, Super Bowl ads cost millions and millions of dollars to produce and air, so we trust that Toyota spent its money wisely and will have us ROFLing on game day. Until then, scroll down and witness for yourself the debut of Kaley Cuoco as a Toyota spokeswoman.
Toyota asking NHTSA for fuel cell car safety exemption regarding electric shocks
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Toyota is requesting an exemption from federal safety regulations that govern electric cars as it prepares to launch a small-scale hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle fleet.
The Japanese automaker is targeting Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 305, which covers the packaging of high-voltage parts in electric cars. According to Uncle Sam, these systems need to be isolated so that passengers and first responders aren't electrocuted in the event of a crash. That seems pretty smart, but it's become a problem for Toyota's upcoming production fuel cell vehicle, as the mechanism that prevents electric shocks in low-speed crashes will apparently simply keep Toyota's car from even functioning.
Instead of the federally approved system, Bloomberg reports that Toyota plans to insulate the high-voltage wires and cables in the car, along with shielding electrical components like the fuel cells, electric motor and batteries with (presumably non-conductive) metal barriers.
