1974 Toyota Land Cruiser Fj40: Clean One Owner 96,123 Runs Great on 2040-cars
Pocatello, Idaho, United States
|
Hello, and welcome to my FJ40 auction. I am the second owner of this vehicle and she has been my daily driver for the last few months.The odometer has not turned yet and sits at 96,123 miles.
I got the Land Cruiser from Teton Toyota here in Idaho after they decided to retire her. She was used for hunting and camping, as well as some plowing in her day. This rig is really solid and is in excellent condition. The engine, transmission, transfer case, lights, heaters and all of the switches work. This FJ40 was taken care of and received regular oil changes and maintenance. The vehicle itself is in excellent condition and doesn't have much rust for a Cruiser. The only real rust is on the drivers side floor pan and below the rocker panel on the drivers side. The drivers side floor pan is still functional but will need to be replaced at some point. This FJ40 is stock as they come and is all original minus the rear floor. Here is a list of the original OEM part on this vehicle: The engine 4 speed transmission and transfer case are all stock. The engine is all original including the air intake, carburetor, etc... The entire body, frame, axles, etc are stock with no aftermarket parts. The interior is all original including all of the switches, lights, and all four seats The doors and hatch are all original and in excellent condition. The front and back doors are entirely rust free, and are some of the most beautiful FJ40 doors I have ever seen. You can see that most of this vehicle is stock and in great condition. I personally really like the 1974 FJ40 because it was the last year of the hatch, but it also was the first year of the 2F engine and the 4 speed transmission. I know from past experiences that those ambulance doors are really dangerous for small kids and fingers in general if you don't secure them. The hatch never fails as long as you have it lifted high enough to get under it without smacking your dome. This was also the last year of the older style doors which in my opinion are the coolest of the FJ40 doors. That at least goes for the retro steel interior. This FJ40 would be an ideal restore project, daily driver, or hunting rig. It does have a little rust along the driver side but the fender, frame, back end, and undercarriage are really solid. The Cruiser has not been modified at all and is all original. The front seats will need to be reupholstered, and the drivers side rust will need to be replaced with new steel. The hood will also need to be buffed out and repainted. There is also a small dent on the hood that will need to be pounded out if you want to do a full restore. I do have a pristine hood for this Cruiser if the lucky winner is interested in purchasing it from me for $75.00. I will throw it in the back of the FJ40 for you:) I have a video on Youtube that shows the car running, shifting, driving, and a complete walkthrough. I can also store the vehicle for 30 days once payment is made if you need time to arrange shipment. You will need to pay me to store it any longer than that. Payment must be made within one week of auction ending. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day:) http://youtu.be/gsnSAs0t99I |

Unifor may establish local union for Toyota's Canadian plants
Thu, 17 Jul 2014Union 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 pondering high-performance GT86 hybrid?
Fri, 08 Mar 2013From what Autocar has to say, Toyota has even more plans for the GT86 beyond the convertible concept we just saw at the Geneva Motor Show. Along with a planned midcycle facelift, Toyota is reportedly looking at how to pack some extra ponies under the coupe's hood, and while there has already been a lot of talk about superchargers and turbochargers, it sounds like a performance-boosting hybrid system could also be in the works.
Talking to Toyota chief engineer Tetsuya Tada, Autocar has learned that the automaker is considering an electrical motor assist for the sporty coupe to improve performance without harming fuel economy. In attempting to keep weight - and, presumably, costs - down, the article mentions the use of a system closer to what Honda uses for its Integrated Motor Assist rather than a full Hybrid Synergy Drive system used in current Toyota hybrids. Tada says the added weight of the system could be offset by weight reduction, while aerodynamic changes and a lower center of gravity could improve the car's handling.
No word yet on whether a mild hybrid system would find its way to North America's Scion FR-S - let alone its Subaru BRZ twin - but the thought is certainly an intriguing one.
NHTSA opens safety investigations into Toyota, GM and Honda crossovers
Fri, 08 Jun 2012The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is evidently keeping itself very busy these days, as the federal agency has just announced it is launching or renewing investigations into Toyota, Honda and General Motors crossovers.
2006-2008 model year Toyota RAV4 crossovers are under review for allegations of rear tie-rod rust which can result in failure. NHTSA also said it is probing some 35 complaints about 2005 Honda Pilot models with inappropriate activation of the vehicles' stability control system. The alleged malfunction can cause the vehicles to slow down or stop in bad unsafe situations. At the moment, NHTSA is reviewing a petition regarding the Pilot issue, a move that will determine whether it needs to open a full-blown investigation.
In addition, Saturn Outlook and GMC Acadia three-row crossovers built in 2007-2009 are getting looked at for "loss of low beam headlamp" function. One complainant said the wiring in his Outlook overheated and melted. NHTSA says it has received 415 complaints about the problem and a GM spokesman confirmed that the automaker already started a "Customer Satisfaction Program" in December to address the issue.
