1965 Toyota Fj-45 Landcruiser Troopy 4x4 Wagon: Rare Fj45lv, Nice Body! on 2040-cars
Eureka, Montana, United States
I CAN TALK ON THE PHONE IF YOU'D LIKE, AND I CAN MAKE A DEAL ON IT EARLY AT ANY TIME. THANKS 1965 TOYOTA FJ-45 4x4 WAGON These FJ45 wagons are super rare and have a high value when restored. If you going to fix something up, these are great because they are worth more and hold their value well. This fj needs full resto but has a great body for restoration. The exterior is rust free and it is really straight overall. It is 99.99% complete and appears original. This landcruiser was most likely bought new in my hometown. I bought it from a local person that I know that has had it since 1982. It hasn't been titled since then. He bought it from another local gentleman, who I also knew. It hasn't been licensed since 1986. I've looked on ebay alot and other places online, and there are usually very few if any for sale like this. Here are all the details. I have many more pics I can send if you'd like. You can use the ebay system or my email address below. Thanks. TUDDY5@MSN.COM BODY The toyota needs full restoration but it is very sound. There is NO exterior rust or anything close to rust. U was told this body may be galvanized. I don't know about that, but I do know that the exterior is rust free. The body is very straight with the exception of a ding in each rear fender, bent tailgate, and bent hood. Reproduction hoods are probably readily available and the same as an fj40. The doors, fenders, quarters, roof, frame, etc. etc. are nice. Sills, rockers, jams are nice. Dash is uncut. The seats look original. The cargo area and wheelhouses are in nice shape. Tailgate and rear jam have no rust. Tailgate is bent, but does open/close. Other doors open/close and latch. Front floorpans has rust in front of and behind the seat. Front clip, firewall, header, and frame are rust free. Frame VIN matches the vin tag. Passenger side rear side window is included but not in it. It is in good shape and will be packaged before the toyota is shipped. Transmission cover is off, but is included and uncut. Originally a column shift which is still in it, but now has a floor shifter. Overall, a very nice body for restoration but does need the floorpan work. They probably sell re-production pieces but a bodyman could fab it easily anyways. MECHANICAL The toyota has what I'm sure is the original six cylinder engine. Everything mechanical appears original. If it matters to you, I can check the numbers on it. I worked on getting this running but I believe it needs carb work and/or ignition work. It turns over and I had it firing, but never got it started. I needed it out of my shop so I stopped working on it and never got back to it. I can't say for sure if the motor will be usable or not, or need rebuilt. Transmission is most likely the original, but now has a floor shifter. Original cover is included. The vehicle steers and tires hold air. I do not believe the brakes work. Driveline that is pictured laying in the back is not for this vehicle. INTERIOR The interior appears all original and needs full restoration. Seats appear original. Dash is uncut and gauges all look original. THIS VEHICLE IS USED, OLD, AND SOLD AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY. IT NEED RESTORATION AND DOESN'T RUN.

Toyota releases its Le Mans recap, 'The Ultimate Endurance Race'
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Two weeks ago, Audi released its short video about this years 24 Hours of Le Mans, and now Toyota has put the experience into its own words and pictures. Called The Ultimate Endurance Race, the clip and accompanying press release focus on how hybrid power helped Toyota claim second and fourth places with the TS030 Hybrid in just its second year competing at Le Mans.
There are some brief scenes of the battles had this year, like when Lucas di Grassi in the Toyota almost kissed Allan McNish in the Audi above, but the best part might be when Toyota promises it will be back. Next year, it's gonna be good. You'll find the relevant words and the images just below.
Toyota reaffirms commitment to body-on-frame SUVs
Mon, 29 Jul 2013Toyota sold 121,055 Highlander CUVs in 2012, according to Automotive News. By comparison, it sold 78,457 examples of four different body-on-frame, truck-based SUVs (4Runner, FJ Cruiser, Sequoia and Land Cruiser). One could argue then, that the traditional SUVs aren't pulling their weight from a sales perspective. Yet that isn't stopping Toyota from reaffirming its commitment to a segment that has seen its former champions - Ford, General Motors and Chrysler - abandon it with alarming speed. Ford and GM still offer body-on frame utilities, but only in the very largest offerings, catering to seven or even eight passengers. Everything outside of the Expedition or Tahoe rides now on a unibody.
Toyota's decision to stick with the technology is good news if you're in the market for smaller SUVs that are still capable of heading well off the beaten path. Outside of the Jeep Wrangler, Grand Cherokee (a unibody) and perhaps Nissan Xterra, there's not much in terms of capable SUVs between $20,000 and $50,000. As the Toyota brand's US head, Bill Fay, says, "Clearly, the trend has shifted, but there is still an owner base that is interested in these vehicles."
We don't doubt Fay on that, but it may also be somewhat telling that Toyota's SUV lineup is aging, and we haven't seen or heard much about replacement models in the pipeline. Admittedly, the 4Runner (pictured) has been facelifted for 2014, but it's mostly cosmetic in nature. Despite Toyota's posturing, we still expect its body-on-frame lineup to thin in the coming years as sales dwindle and escalating fuel-economy standards make business cases even tougher. Here's hoping that Toyota manages to keep at least one rough-and-tumble SUV in its lineup in the coming years.
Toyota Matrix not long for this world?
Thu, 18 Apr 2013According to a report from AutoGuide, Toyota doesn't have plans to replace the aging Matrix hatchback in the United States after this year. If true, the timing coincides with the replacement for the Corolla, on which the Matrix is based, with that car slated to get its first complete redesign since 2006 (2008 in the US market).
We'd love to tell you how many Matrix models were sold by Toyota in the United States last year, but the automaker chooses to bundle Matrix sales with Corolla sales, so we have no idea. That said, we have to assume sales of the hatchback don't contribute much overall to the total number of Corolla-based machines.
We're also unsure if Toyota will choose to exit the youth-oriented compact hatchback market entirely, or if the automaker will rely instead on its hybrid Prius line and Scion models like the xB and xD.
