Flower Mound, Texas, United States

This is a 1979 FJ40 in Sky Blue with white accents.  Comes with hard top, solid doors, and rear ambulance doors.
-After purchasing the vehicle, I had the rear sill, rear interior fenders and back floor replaced with toyota ribbed metal. 
- We did a 350 conversion for more power.  Vehicle will cruise at 70 down the highway or faster, depending on how much you like to be blown around here in North Texas wind country.  4x4 works great and if you put her in low and drop her into first she will crawl until out of gas. 
-Vehicle has power steering and brakes.  
-New clutch components including clutch master cylinder.  
-New aluminum radiator.  Vehicle is cooled by an electric fan, switch located on dash.
-New front seats and original jump seats in good condition
-Stereo installed with 6x9's in the rear next to the jump seats.
-locking center console (Pad Lock)
-New original type roll cage painted matte black
-powder coated hood hold downs and windshield hold downs
-restored fuel tank and fuel lines
-new brakes

This is a great FJ40.  She will go ANYWHERE!!!  It has been a fun to drive and gets compliments and attracts attention wherever I take her.  All the lights work, turn signals and wipers.  If you have any questions feel free to contact me and for more pictures you can look at our Facebook page Iconic Motor Company.  It is a business in the aspect of it allows me to own and work on my toys and other peoples.

This vehicle is for sale, sign on the window, and I may end the auction early if someone approaches me as I drive down the road with a pocket full of cash. 

Happy Bidding

Toyota GT86 turbo, convertible, sedan variants back on the table

Fri, 02 May 2014

Okay Toyota, make up your mind. Figure it out. Quit playing games with our heart. Either build a bunch of variations of the excellent GT86 (also known as the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ) or don't. At this point, we're just tired of the back and forth. After no shortage of denials, an Australian website is claiming that Toyota is reconsidering convertible, four-door, turbocharged and all-wheel-drive hybrid variants of the GT86. Kindly pass all the salt.
It's not that we don't want to believe the Aussies; we do. But when the story lists the same "sources in Japan" as a lot of the other denials and confirmations about GT86/BRZ/FR-S variants, well, there's a certain sense of the "Boy That Cried Wolf," here. Ignoring all that, then, what does Motoring.com.au claim to know?
Sources claim the GT86 Convertible will arrive in October 2014, while the turbocharged and hybrid sedans are slated for 2016.

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.

Toyota recalls 370k Sienna minivans, 10.5k Lexus GS models over separate issues

Thu, 22 May 2014

The year of the recall continues, but this time it isn't from General Motors. Toyota is announcing two, separate recalls affecting a pair of its models.
First, Toyota is recalling 370,000 Sienna minivans from the 2004 to 2011 model years that are registered or originally sold in cold-weather states. The problem is that the spare tire carrier assembly cable can be splashed by water contaminated with road salt and cause corrosion. There is a splashguard in place to prevent this, but it sometimes gets lost in "normal usage," according to the company. If the cable does break, then "the spare tire may separate from the vehicle."
This is actually the second repair for this problem for some of these vehicles. In 2010, Toyota issued a recall on 600,000 Siennas from the 1998 to 2010 model years. At the time, it installed a new splashguard and sprayed the area with an anti-rust chemical. However, according to Toyota spokesperson John Hanson speaking to Autoblog, the campaign worked for the 1998 to 2003 models but wasn't sufficient for the newer ones. For the latest recall, the vehicles are getting the entire cable replaced with a stainless steel unit and a new splashguard.
