1978 Toyota Landcruiser Fj40. Newly Overhauled Engine. Very Clean! on 2040-cars
Mountain View, Arkansas, United States
This FJ40 has had a very thorough refurbishing starting by removing the tub for cleaning and painting frame, overhauling engine and drive train, painting body and installing new interior. I will try my best to describe the FJ as honestly as possible and list those things that have been done and those needing to be done. I bought this project disassembled and have been there throughout it's reassembly process. Many original OEM parts were used as well as new OEM and aftermarket parts. The engine was overhauled by a reputable shop and was balanced and blue printed during rebuild. It starts easily, runs smoothly and is typical of a well done rebuilt engine. At the same time the transmission, transfer case and both differentials were gone though and brought back to spec. The body is straight and only has very minor scuffs or dents. As you can tell from the pics there are no signs of damage to the undercarriage or body. The front bumper has a small bend on the passenger side. Hard to notice unless you are looking down the length of the bumper. The FJ was moved three times while disassembled prior to my ownership so there are some blemishes in the exterior paint from handling and strorage. It has a good "20 foot" daily driver paint job. There is light to moderate "orange peel" effect in the paint. The paint covers well and has good protection quality. I do not use the term "frame off restoration" because this was not a nut and bolt redo. However great effort was taken to insure it was well done for a daily driver vehicle. I will list what has been done mechanical and appearance wise. Open to all questions about the FJ except what my reserve price will be. Mechanical: Engine overhaul with balance and blueprint performed.

A few pre-race notes and a lot of photos from the 24 Hours of Le Mans
Sat, 14 Jun 2014The 82nd running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans is on.
Audi has won 12 of the last 15 events, the scion of Auto Union is trying to make it 13 this year. To do so, it will have to overcome a situation faced only three other times during its dominance of La Sarthe: underdog status. Toyota has won the first two races of the year and claimed pole for this race, the rumor being that this year it's Toyota's race to lose.
And then there's Porsche. It's been 16 years since the Stuttgart brand raced on the top rung at Le Mans, three years years since it announced its return, just a year since it acquired Mark Webber in a signing that wasn't subtle and a few months since we got eyes on the 919 Hybrid.
Toyota settles complaints with states Attorneys General for $29 million
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Toyota announced today that it has reached a settlement with the Attorneys General of 29 states and one US territory that will resolve their complaints relating to recalls performed by the automaker from 2005-2010, including those related to sticky accelerators and malfunctioning floor mats that may have contributed to cases of unintended acceleration.
The settlement includes a payout of $29 million to be divided among the states and US territory, as well as a commitment from Toyota "to take steps to make vehicle information more easily accessible to consumers to help them operate their vehicles safely and make more informed choices." The settlement also has Toyota continuing its rapid-response service teams and quality field offices that were put in place shortly after the largest of the recalls from 2010, as well as a "range of customer care amenities for owners of vehicles subject to certain recalls," though the press release below isn't specific about what those amenities might be.
This settlement marks the second major step in the last few months that Toyota has taken to settle legal disputes surrounding the unintended acceleration recalls, the first being a $1.4 billion settlement to address economic loss suffered by owners of current and past Toyota vehicles that may have lost value on account of these recalls.
Despite slow sales, no new Scion models in near-term pipeline [w/poll]
Mon, 09 Sep 2013According to a top Toyota executive, the Japanese automaker will not be introducing any fresh Scion models in the near future, Reuters reports. As of August, Scion sales for this year were down 1.6 percent from 2012 and accounted for only 0.3 percent of Toyota's overall US sales. And last month, Toyota Motor Sales USA Senior Vice President Bob Carter informed the 1,000 dealers who carry Scion that they can drop the brand without penalty.
However, never fear - Carter has assured that, while nothing new is coming for at least six months, the company is still very committed to the quirky Scion brand. Toyota launched Scion, which targets the youth market, in 2003, and sales peaked in 2006. The brand currently has five models, with the 2013 best-sellers being the FR-S sports coupe followed by the tC sedan and xB hatchback.
What do you think about Toyota's decision to hold off on introducing new or refreshed Scion models? Are they heading in the right direction, or does this spell doom for the funky Gen Y brand?
