Selling a very rare, low mileage, rust free 1964 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser in excellent condition. I am losing part of my garage storage this winter and am selling off a few pieces in my classic car collection for space considerations only.

The previous owner restored this truck about 10 years ago and it has had very light use since (about 10,000 miles since the restoration). This model has the very rare bi-fold rear window hard top. Here's the history of the truck that I received from the previous owner:

It was purchased as a rust free Colorado truck in 2001. The original color was desert tan and had about 70,000 miles on the clock. The owner met another FJ collector who was about to modify his nice original 1975 FJ40 with a new Chevy crate 350 engine (a popular upgrade on FJ's), new 5 speed transmission and Recarro seats (I have trouble understanding why anyone would do this to a nice original FJ, but that's just me). So, the owner of this rig bought the entire engine, 4 speed transmission and 4-wheel drive transfer box, rear end/drive train and front seats from that 75 FJ which had only 37,000 original miles. The frame was removed and the truck was painted white and all the previous mentioned components and seats were installed. The 64's originally had a smaller engine and 3 on the tree transmission. So, this is essentially an earlier model FJ40 with a more modern and powerful running gear that now has only 47,000 miles on it. While I have no history on the carburetor- at appears fairly new. Please note that the engine info listed by ebay is incorrect- it apparently defaults and cannot be deleted.

This FJ looks great and runs great. There is no rust anywhere except for a few very small surface spots (less than the size of a penny) that I've sanded and touched up. The 10 year old paint has held up very nicely and has a nice shine. It has always been garaged since being restored. All glass is excellent, floors are solid.

I've never removed the hard top because I haven't had a place to store it. As shown in the photo's, the rear bi-fold window opens, and coupled with the front under-window vents, keeps it cool in warm weather driving. That said, I have a brand new (still in the box) bikini top that will come with the truck as well as a nice set of black soft doors. You may be able to see in one of the photo's that the hard top has a handsome custom gray felt headliner that is embroidered with "1964 Toyota Land Cruiser". It looks cool, serves as great roof insulation and quiets outside noises.

This FJ has a brand new Diehard Gold battery and installed on-board charger if you opt to store it for longer periods during the winter. I recently added a pair of roof load bars and a basket roof rack. There's an old school am-fm tape deck under the dash with great sounding rear surface mounted speakers. The Michelin tires are nearly new on 15 inch wheels. Rear mudflaps are either NOS or superb reproductions- they are nearly impossible to find. I have a reproduction of the original owners manual for the new owner.

There are a few minor needs... my turn signals and brake lights are out. Fuses look OK so it may only be a ground wire. The bi-fold window goes up and down and locks into place when up, however there is some missing hardware that would allow you to lock the window when closed.

Trades? I really need the garage space so trades don't solve my reason for selling. That said- my particular interest is classic Saab's and Volvo's so I'd listen to a partial trade if you have something of interest for a Volvo 1800, 122 or 544...or Saab 95, 96 or Sonett. I'll listen to reasonable offers and the truck is also for sale locally so the auction may be ended early. I'm happy to show the FJ by appointment. Feel free to bring along your mechanic too. This is a very rare truck and if you've been looking at old FJ's you already know how prices have been soaring over the past few years. This is a fun truck and a great investment for the right buyer.

eBay Find of the Day: Back To The Future Marty McFly 1985 Toyota SR5 pickup tribute

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

With DeLorean time machine replicas thick on the ground, it was only a matter of time before someone started recreating the other vehicles in the McFly garage. At the end of the first Back to the Future movie, Marty returns to 1985 to find his sweet-looking Toyota SR5 truck all waxed and ready for his date. That truck always did look great in the movie, and now's your chance to own this close facsimile.
This Back to the Future replica Toyota is on eBay with a price of $14,500, which the seller claims is half of what's been invested. Perhaps that's true, but it's still a nearly 30-year-old truck that's covered 280,000 miles. The seller does say the 22RE engine has been recently rebuilt, along with the rest of the drivetrain, and there's new paint, too. The attention to detail is admirable, and if you've always admired Marty's '80s-chic 4x4, now's your chance to own it.

Scroll down for the official press release from Toyota, and be sure to check out our gallery of images showing every model year and bodystyle of the Camry since it first went on sale in 1983.

Toyota reveals new customizable Camatte57s kid-friendly concepts

Tue, 11 Jun 2013

Toyota plans to follow up last year's kid-friendly Camatte concept with two new versions: the Camatte57s and Camatte57s Sport (right). Like the original Camatte, the two new concepts will make their debut at the International Tokyo Toy Show, which is happening this weekend.
Not much has changed with these two new Camatte models. Like their predecessor, they both feature detachable body panels (the count is up to 57), a 1+2 seating array and reconfigurable pedals that allow children to operate the gas and brakes while Mom or Dad steers. What is new is an open-top roadster design that even eschews doors in favor of easier ingress/egress. They look like something a tourist would rent to get around a Hawaiian island, though we dig the distinct personalities of each model's design.
Both cars are all-electric, though Toyota hasn't provided any other specifications, like what makes the Sport model sporty besides its more aggressive body panels and silver, black and red color scheme. That's just as well, as neither concept, like the original Camatte before them, is street legal.
