You are bidding on a 1974 Toyota Landcruiser that was rebuilt. The body is all steel and replaced from the front cowl back with a new 3/4 body from Iron Pig Offroad. The only non-steel body items are the rear doors (Specter Off Road) and the transmission hump which are fiberglass. The wiring is complete new and uses weather tight connection at all points. The alternator is a 63A single wire from Summit. All underbody was finished with POR15 products and the interior is coated with spray urethane black bed liner. The engine is a rebuilt Chevy 350, bored 0.040 over, low compression pistons, remanufactured large valve heads, with a small Holley Truck avenger carb. The transmission, transfer case, rear differential, and front axles were complete rebuild. The vehicle has all new brakes, brake lines, cylinders, master cylinder, springs, seals, etc. All the parts used were genuine Toyota replacement parts except for the oversize V8 aluminum radiator package from Man-a-Fre, the soft top from Best Top, and a custom exhaust that runs above the skid plate. The cruiser comes with fabric half-doors and a set of full fabric doors. The engine to transmission adapter is from Marks in Australia which allows the transmission holes and shifters to stay in the stock Toyota positions. If you are looking for a show room finish on the paint, you'll need to do that yourself. I painted this myself and the paint has a few runs and finish issues. The good news is that body filler was only used in a few places (front fender attachments) that were first cut out and patched correctly with sheet metal. At the risk of repeating some items, I've listed below some of the items used in the rebuild:
- Chevy 350 (rebuilt with new pistons, bearings, HV oil pump, hi-torque cam, Chevy Black powder dress kit, Truck Avenger Carb, Ram Horn manifolds, HEI ignition, seals, Aluminum Radiator, etc.)
- Frame was degreased, blasted, and POR15 chassis black applied
- Front end rebuilt (tie rod ends, axle seals, trunion bearings, Pro Comp steering dampener, brakes, wheel cylinders, ss braided hoses, lock out hubs, etc.)
- Rear Axle rebuilt ( seals, bearings, brakes, wheel cylinders, Pro Comp shock all around, etc.)
- VDO gages (Electric speedo, oil, water temp, battery voltage)
- Wiring completely redone with ATC fuse box located in the glove box.
- New seat foam and covers from Specter Off road
- Pintle hook on rear bumper
- Winch ready front bumper
- Full Custom Roll Cage
A hardtop, rear door w/locking struts( and most new parts to repair), and repairable steel doors (no parts for these) will be included for sales price exceeding $10K. Otherwise they will be available for $500 to the bid winner if they are wanted. This vehicle is being offered as is where is. The Cruiser is offered for pick up or if you want to arrange for shipping from Zip Code 16856. There is no shipping included. The title is clear and the buyer is responsible for all title transfer fees and taxes as applicable.
I've include some pictures. If you have questions or need a specific picture, let me know and I'll respond. Good luck and happy bidding.

Watch a Camry driver in full road rage
Mon, 29 Apr 2013There are vehicles that, fair or not, will forever be associated with jerky drivers. But as this very recent footage from an in-car camera shows, even the most mundane of sedans can be piloted by an ass.
In this video, the driver of one very beige Toyota Camry is driving like a person choked with rage. Though we don't see which (if any) actions by our camera car might have lead up to the tirade, we do see the Camry driver swerving from lane to lane, in multiple attempts to get in front of and brake check the couple in the recording.
According to the text associated with the YouTube video, the offending incident took place last week, on a section of I-880 near Fremont, CA. The uploader has gone so far as to include the date, time and license plate number of the Camry driver, in hopes, we guess, that some kind of legal action can be taken against him. Take a closer look for yourself in the video below.
2015 Toyota Camry targeting 'more emotional' design
Sun, 19 Jan 2014There are many ways to describe the Toyota Camry: "comfortable," "economical," "affordable," "reliable" and "dull as a bucket of mayonnaise" would all be accurate. It's this last one that the Japanese brand is seeking to change. While we aren't expecting it to suddenly sprout a high-revving V8, a rear-drive layout or razor-sharp handling, a report from Bloomberg suggests we should at least expect a more evocative design from one of the best-selling cars in the country.
The next Camry update, due for 2015, should have a "more emotional, more impactful design," says Kevin Hunter, head of Toyota's US design studio. That's according to Bloomberg, who caught up with the styling boss at this week's Detroit Auto Show. "Camry's taken some hits on styling, but it's still selling well. But we need to create better design for Camry in the future."

Toyota Hilux successor spotted
Mon, 15 Sep 2014The midsize truck segment is suddenly seemingly exploding with new vehicles worldwide, even here in North America. Not only will the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon be available very soon, Toyota is already testing a replacement for its aging Tacoma and Honda has promised a Ridgeline replacement within the next 18 months. Also, the recently shown Nissan Navara is said to portend the future of our Frontier. Here's some more fresh evidence from Europe of this pickup boom with the next generation of its venerable Hilux in testing.
Thanks to Top Gear and sometimes the evening news, the Hilux has built a reputation of being able to go just about anywhere. According to out spy shooter, this particular pickup was spotted during hot weather testing in southern Europe. Interestingly, a Volkswagen Amarok was along for the ride as a benchmark. Because the VW tends to offer a bit more comfort than the generally utilitarian Hilux, this could indicate Toyota is considering taking the new truck in a slightly comfier, more refined direction.
Compared to the current model, this camouflaged tester sports a narrower front grille and headlights. The hood scoop is also absent here. The lower air dam also receives a more horizontal look, but the more vertical fog light housings provide some contrast. The crazy camouflage pattern makes things hard to discern at the rear, but the taillights appear to be more slender than they on the current model. Unfortunately, mechanical details about the new truck remain a mystery at the moment, but enjoy these spy shots as a preview of one more upcoming pickup.
