1974 Toyota Land Cruiser Landcruiser Hardtop Winch Trades Trade-in Financing on 2040-cars

Year:1974 Mileage:64309
Location:

Nashville, Tennessee, United States

Nashville, Tennessee, United States

Up for grabs is this 1974 Toyota Land Cruiser (or Landcruiser) FJ40!  This FJ is in great mechanical shape, and the 2F engine just got a full tune-up, a new fuel filter, and an oil change.  I have been using this FJ as a daily driver, and it starts very easily and cruises on both city streets and at highway speeds easily (up to 65 mph).  It is easily to start, and all gauges function except for the oil pressure gauge (oil pressure has been checked and is in-line with normal operating ranges).   A recently completed compression test shows all cylinders to be +/-10 psi of 150 psi.  In addition to the tune-up, the FJ also has new wheel cylinders and new brakes at all four corners, as well as a new master cylinder. 

This FJ also features four nearly new Nexen 31" tires with plenty of tread, the original spare wheel is included and mount.  The hard top appears to be original.  All wipers, brake lights, and turn signals are operational, but it does not have a radio currently.  Both jump seats are present!  Original headliner also appears to be present, and it is sagging in several areas, this does not affect vision or driveability and can be easily removed. 

Tow hitch also!  As an added bonus, it has a large Warn winch mounted on the front of the vehicle, I have not personally tested this winch but it appears to have all parts present.  Front bumper appears to be custom made, and features old cases mounted on both sides.  Bumperettes in rear appear to be original. 

If you have any questions, or if you need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me on 615-300-6004 (call or text), or email me through eBay. 

Yes, there is some rust present on the body, which is why I am not asking $50,000+ for this FJ40.  This Land Cruiser has been repainted in a sky blue hue, and looking at the door jambs, it appears that it was originally sky blue.  The paint is not perfect.  Yes, this FJ has rust, this may not be the best choice of vehicle for you.  However, if you want an affordable FJ40 that starts easily, is fun to drive and one that attracts A LOT of attention, this may be the FJ you have been looking for!   FJ40's are sky-rocketing in value, and this would be an excellent truck to keep, especially if you want to rescue Jeeps!

Please do not bid if you are not serious; bids are legally binding and non-paying bidders will be fully prosecuted. 

For any serious buyer, I am happy to provide the name and number of my mechanic who performed the tune-up and inspection. 

We do take trade-ins, please contact me directly for details. 

I will end the auction early for a reasonable offer, but please do not contact me asking what the reserve is (it is set very low), or what my "bottom dollar" would be. 

We accept the following forms of payment: Cash, Personal Check, Wire Transfer (small fee applies), or Credit/Debit Cards (3% swipe fee applies).  We do charge a $199 doc fee, a .03% City of Nashville tax, and $25 to send the title to you via FedEx.  This FJ40 does have a clean/clear title in my possession, and I will only release the title after all funds are received.  We will wait seven (7) days for funds to clear if paying by personal check. 

I ship vehicles frequently, both nationally and internationally, and I can have this FJ40 delivered to your door for less than you might think.  In order to get the most accurate shipping quote, please send me your zip code for a ballpark estimate.  The FJ will be made available for shipping only after all funds have been received.

Again, please ask any and all questions BEFORE the end of the auction, my direct cell phone number is 615-300-6004. 

Thanks!

Oh Buoy! Toyota sinks to Spongebob depths with custom Highlander

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The launch of the 2014 Toyota Highlander is being assisted by Bikini Bottom's number one resident, SpongeBob SquarePants. The new crossover has been wrapped with SpongeBob's square mug all over it as if he's saying "I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready," from every direction. Inside is a cabin that Toyota says "captures all of the beloved character's high-octane energy," but might make you question whether this is really the world you want to live in.
Revealed on SpongeBob Day at the San Diego Padres vs. San Francisco Giants baseball game in San Diego, CA on July 13, the Highlander will go from there to seven locations nationwide on a "Happy Driving Tour," ending at the LA Auto Show in November.
You can read all about it in the press release below, as well as ways to fill your life with more SpongeBob than is probably healthy.

Toyota announces Geneva plans including droptop FT-86 Open concept

Fri, 01 Feb 2013

Automakers from around the globe are gearing up for the Geneva Motor Show next month, and Toyota is giving us a couple teasers of what will be in its display. In addition to what appears to be a single-seat concept called the i-Road (shown at right), Toyota will also give us our first look at a droptop Scion FR-S courtesy of the FT-86 Open Concept.
All we have to go on right now is this sketch shown above, but we do see that this car will retain its rear seats, which could be a potential advantage over one of its key rivals, the Mazda MX-5 Miata. Toyota says that this concept will be used to gauge public interest in such a convertible, but we've already heard that a Scion convertible is already planned to go on sale as soon as early next year. As far as Toyota's other concept, there also isn't much information about the i-Road except that it will be a zero-emissions vehicle and it will have seating for two passengers, which based on the drawing will have the driver sitting in front of the passenger.
Toyota will also show off the European version of the new RAV4 as well as its new Auris Touring Sports, which it refers to as a "medium-size estate." Scroll down for Toyota's tease of a press release.

Toyota GT86 engineer Tada recounts how sports car came to be

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Because the Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ coupes are now a reality, it's almost hard to imagine the struggle that had to happen within the large, conservative corporate structures at both automakers for the joint project to even get off of the ground.
Speaking to those struggles on Toyota UK's Toyota Blog, GT86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada enlightens us with a recap of the sports car's earliest origins. For Tada, the first stages of the project must have seemed almost as dreamlike as the final product is to drive.
Said the Chief, "I had been working in the minivan department engineering new product, but a month after the meeting I was summoned. 'Forget about minivans,' they said, 'you are now working on the sports-car project.'"
