1967 FJ40 Landcruiser 4X4 is not shiny, nor civilized....instead, built to be violent and rugged.  Has front and rear locking differentials, 3 speed manual transmission.  The engine is the famous aluminum head ZZ4 found in the Jegs catalog.  It has the loudest flowmasters available.  Transmission and transfer Case are original and recently rebuilt with all new bearings and seal.  Transfer Case is still vacuum operated, so is a bit cantankerous engaging 2 to 4 wheel drive, but does work.  It still has the original "one pump wonder" drum brakes (with new components) and is not vacuum assist.  Needless to say, the phrase "refined stopping features" do not apply.  They work fine, for what they are.  As outrageous as this truck looks, it actually drives fast and handles well.  You can steer with one hand, while cruising on the Interstate, although I don't recommend it.  The fold-down tow bar is functional and the optional skull, goes with it.  The speedo cable is bad, so the actual miles are not going to be correct.

Overall, being a vintage 1967, it does have rust and patch panels, here and there. It also has some pretty crude Bondo work on one fender and mostly a paint job from spray cans, so the point is: don't expect a cosmetic creampuff....at least you don't have to worry about door-dings at Walmart.

It has a true Skyjacker 4" lift suspension system and does not squeak or rattle.  Despite the cosmetics, it actually is a reliable road driver.  It is LOUD and CRAZY, so you do attract attention, when you drive it.  The clutch is also new, when the gearboxes were rebuilt.  The V8 is installed with the Advance Adaptors kit, for this. It is shown with the Bikini top, but will come with several top options, that include a full soft top, with doors, a windcurtain that fits behind the front seats (makes a "half-cab"...my personal favorite) and a set of soft, half-doors. Rear bench seat is removable and all seats do have seat belts.  The heater does work, as well and the roll cage is FULL.  The video is a low-resolution, walk around...I could not get the HQ version to load, so had to work with it.  The tires are 35 x 15's.  One is new, the other 3 have seen better days, but are serviceable.  I am listing this with no reserve, so high bidder gets it....go at it boys!!

Unifor may establish local union for Toyota's Canadian plants

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

Union tactics apparently translate across borders, as Canada's Unifor may take inspiration from the United Auto Workers' recent move at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, and establish a local for the Toyota factories in Cambridge and Woodstock.
Unifor last attempted to organize the workers at the two factories, which are responsible for production of the Toyota Corolla (above), RAV4 and Lexus RX back in April, but that vote was eventually delayed. According to that report, 3,000 of the two plants' 7,500 employees signed union cards, but that apparently wasn't enough for Unifor to force a vote.
Because of this, the union is looking at the local approach, like what the UAW is attempting with VW.

Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.

Toyota confirms i-Road electric trike for production

Tue, 08 Oct 2013

The wacky, three-wheeled Toyota i-Road we saw in Geneva earlier this year will be heading to production. But before you run down to your local Toyota dealer looking for one of these all-electric "personal mobility" vehicles, chances are, you'll never actually see one unless you visit Japan.
Announced at the Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies (CEATEC) expo last week, Toyota said that the i-Road would be used as a part of the Ha:Mo car-sharing system in Japan. Weighing in at around 661 pounds, with a 28-mile-per-hour top speed and a two-passenger seating arrangement, the i-Road seems more like a fully enclosed scooter than a car, but it does offer a 30-mile driving range and has a nifty articulating front suspension that leans into corners. As for Ha:Mo, Toyota says that the number of cars in the program will increase from 10 prior to October 1 to 100 by the middle of this month, and the number of stations will almost double from 13 up to 21. Toyota has more details about the car and Ha:Mo in the press release posted below.
