1976 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER FJ40
1976 TOYOTA FJ40. I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE I BOUGHT AN FJ43. I WAS TOLD THIS
FJ WAS RESTORED IN 2007. THE BODY IS 100% RUST FREE AND INCREDIBLY STRAIGHT. THE FJ HAS THE INLINE 6 2F 4.2L WITH A
4 SPEED TRANSMISSION. THE PAINT IS VERY VERY NICE DRIVER QUALITY. THERE IS ORANGE PEEL ON THE HOOD AND SOME DUST
UNDER THE PAINT ON THE HOOD, OTHERWISE THE PAINT IS REALLY NICE. SINCE I HAD THE FJ, I INSTALLED A BRAND NEW BEST
TOP SOFT TOP. CHANGED THE OIL AND FILTER, DID A TUNE UP WITH NEW PLUGS,WIRES,DISTRIBUTOR CAP AND ROTOR. INSTALLED
NEW WEATHER STRIPPING ON THE DRIVERS DOOR. I HAVE THE PASSENGERS, BUT DIDNT GET A CHANCE TO INSTALL. ALSO A FEW
LITTLE OTHER THINGS LIKE NEW MIRRORS, NEW WIPERS, AND PROBABLY A COUPLE OTHER THINGS. THE FJ RUNS GREAT AND STARTS
RIGHT UP EVERY TIME. I DROVE IT FOR EVERYDAY FOR A WEEK, IT RAN GREAT! DROVE IT ON THE HIGHWAY, AND DRIVES STRAIGHT
WITH NO WOBBLE OR ISSUES. THERE IS AN AFTERMARKET TACHOMETER AND OIL PRESSURE GAUAGE THAT BOTH WORK. THE GAS GAUGE
AND TEMP GAUAGE DONT SEEM TO WORK. THE FJ DOESN'T LEAK A SINGLE DROP OF ANYTHING! I WOULD CONSIDER THE QUALITY OF
THE FJ AS VERY VERY NICE DRIVER QUALITY. THE TAILGATE IS WELDED SHUT, I HAVE NO REASON WHY, IT WAS LIKE THAT WHEN I
GOT IT. BELOW IS A COPY OF THE DESCRIPTION FROM WHEN I PURCHASED THE FJ

Expedition drives from Russia to Canada over North Pole...
Tue, 21 May 2013No, a Ford Expedition did not drive from Russia to Canada via the North Pole, but that's exactly what a team of intrepid explorers accomplished recently. Using specially-modified buses with massive tires, the group slowly drove 2,485 miles in 70 days over drifting ice, occasionally using a pickaxe to clear a path and staying on guard for chasms that could open up and plunge the team into the frigid arctic waters. Average speeds were about 6 mph, "at the speed of a (farm) tractor." While the big tires technically allowed the buses to float if the need arose, the team preferred to stay out of the water to keep the suspension from getting coated in thick, hard ice. Falling in on foot would mean almost certain death.
According to Phys.org, the buses were powered by Toyota diesel engines, but were built with prototype parts from a previous driving expedition to the North Pole. Right now, the machines are parked in a garage in Canada's Resolute Bay while the the team rests up with family back home. They plan to continue their trek to back across the Bering Straight to Russia. If successful, the team may eventually offer a version of their buses for commercial sale.
Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Toyota 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.
