Here is your chance to buy the legend. 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. 1982 - one of the most coveted years for FJ40's ever!! I can't believe I'm actually selling this bad boy. This may be one of your last chances to purchase such an awesome machine. These vehicles continue to climb in value and are getting harder and harder to find, especially in this type of condition.

It has the original bulletproof inline six cylinder 2F motor with 134k original miles. It has an Aqualu aluminum tub that was installed about 8 or 9 years ago, according to the previous owner. Last year my Cruiser mechanic and I went through the entire motor and rebuilt and replaced a huge amount of parts. We replaced the front and rear motor mounts, radiator fan, all new heating, cooling, and emission hoses, rebuilt the carburetor and distributor, new spark plugs and wires, fuel pump, fixed all oil leaks and replaced gaskets and seals, replaced the clutch master cylinder, replaced the heater blower resistor (to enable the low fan setting for the heater). All OEM Toyota parts were utilized whenever possible.

In addition to the engine work, we also reupholstered the front seats with Cruiser Corps covers, provided a new dash cap cover, installed a new radio delete plate, replaced the brake, gas and clutch pedal pads, overhauled a new (used) set of 5 OEM Toyota rims with Toyota OEM paint and OEM Toyota chrome center caps, installed a brand new ARB front bumper with an overhauled Warn 8274 winch that works great, including new bumper gussets, installed a Man-a-Fre rear swing out tire carrier with cooler carrier, hitch and Hi-Lift jack attachment, aftermarket mirrors, OEM fuel cap, OEM rear seat straps, OEM Toyota emblems, rear heater lines, and jack and jack rod clips (I realize they were not ’82 specific but work and look great nonetheless). Tires are 31x10.5x15 BFG A/T with excellent tread, although the spare is fairly worn.

The Cruiser starts and runs great. The only known issues with the Cruiser are that the hardtop does have some spots of rust and needs a new headliner. I have a brand new headliner ready to install that will go with the Cruiser. The white on the hardtop is not OEM Toyota and will need to be updated to match the wheels and bezel. There is also a leak in the front driver side knuckle and I also have the rebuild kit that will also go with the Cruiser. I just didn’t have time to install. There is also a small leak between the transmission and transfer case that is very common with the FJ40’s.

I also have a lot of extra parts that will be included with the sale: Aqualu tailgate for when the ambulance doors are removed, fuel door cover with retainer bracket, bikini top with sunroof with all hardware, additional OEM radiator, aftermarket chrome front bumper, extra Toyota brown jack (for all you purists out there), OEM spare tire carrier (gray), radio antenna, aftermarket cup holder, Toyota touch up paint, and a box of additional nuts and bolts.

All in all this FJ40 is in great shape and turns heads wherever it goes. I have additional photos that I can email upon request. It is a 30+ year old vehicle and is in used condition and is being sold AS IS. I am only asking what I have invested in the Cruiser and it is a no reserve auction. Don’t miss your chance to own the last of one of the greatest vehicles ever made. Please email any questions prior to bidding. The vehicle is located in Northwest Colorado but could be delivered to the SLC or Portland, OR for an additional shipping fee. Please confirm prior to bidding. Please take care of my baby!!

Toyota Sienna Swagger Wagon rides again with Busta Rhymes

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

Let's face it: there are few things less "gangsta" than a minivan (which goes a long way towards explaining why crossovers have been gradually taking their place as the family-hauler of choice across America, but we digress). The point here is not lost on Toyota, which has embraced the uncool image of the minivan with the Swagger Wagon campaign.
We first saw the suburban-goes-urban campaign pop up with the introduction of the new Sienna back in 2010. And now that the Sienna's been updated for 2015, the campaign is back again, featuring none other than Trevor Tahiem Smith, Jr. himself... better known to most as Busta Rhymes. The decidedly white-bread video spot that follows may make you cringe, but you've got to admit that it's well done, even if it doesn't have the charm and freshness of the original.

2013 Pikes Peak Hill Climb, Practice Day 4

Fri, 28 Jun 2013

The fourth and final practice day of the 91st Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is complete. Tomorrow everyone will make any last-minute adjustments and get their cars, their bits and bobs lined up in the pits for Sunday morning's this-time-it-counts run.
The Unlimited runners took on the top section of the course today, Sébastien Loeb and his big-mouth Peugeot acing the practice test again with a time of 2:11. Rhys Millen's team proved its got the engine issues of two days ago in the Hyundai PM580T sorted out, posting the next-best time at 2:27.16. The reason we had to dip all the way into the hundredths for his time is because he nipped Romain Dumas by just .31 of them, the Frenchman in the Norma M20FC PP running the course in 2:27.47. In fourth came the Frenchman in the monster Mini, Jean-Philippe Dayraut six seconds back at 2:33.
Time Attack competitors, also on the upper section, were led by Paul Dallenbach in the Hyundai Genesis Coupe with a time of 2:36, Porsche pilot Jeff Zwart crossing the line six seconds later at 2:42, fellow Porsche driver David Donner coming in another six seconds back at 2:48. Dallenbach has topped three of the four practice-day sessions, sliding into the second spot behind Donner only on Practice Day 2.

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi

Sun, 25 Nov 2012

EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
