Three Lakes, Wisconsin, United States

1983 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60. Great, dependable driver. Recently redone interior. Lift kit with new 35" Toyo Mud Terrain tires, snorkel (not hooked up), paint is presentable but shows wear. Some scratches and small rust areas, but overall very clean. Originally titled in South Carolina. Frame is completely rust free outside of minimal surface rust. Body is bondo free to the best of my knowledge and has very minimal surface rust. Original inline 6 with an exempt odometer. Original owner stated he had the engine rebuilt  about 15,000 miles prior to my purchase, but no documentation. Engine starts and runs well. Brakes need checking - not sure if it's from the large tires or if they need work. They do stop the vehicle but should/could work better. AC does not work. Everything else is operable to the best of my knowledge. Nice, clean FJ60 with lots of extras offered at no reserve. For sale locally, seller reserves the right to end auction early.

Common questions I'm getting:


As the description and photos show, this FJ60 has very little frame rust. What I would classify as minimal surface rust on some areas of the frame. Zero rust-through on the frame. It's very clean, shown in photos. The body is very clean as well with minimal areas of rust coming through the paint under the door(s). This is one of the cleanest FJ60s I've ever owned. It is garage kept and was only driven in summer months by me. I have only owned it about 18 months.

The brakes will stop the vehicle but do not work at 100%. I'd estimate them to be working at about a 25% level.

This Cruiser will travel no problem at highway speeds up to 70 MPH. It could be driven home by the buyer, but again, the brakes are not 100% and are probably not the safest option at highway speeds.

The tires (Toyo MTs) likely have less than 500 miles on them and are worth about $1,200 by themselves.

I am selling it because I have a collection of vintage 4x4s which means too many to maintain and store, so this one didn't survive the cut.

I forgot to note in the description - the filler neck on the gas tank will leak if over-filled. It has to be COMPLETELY filled to leak.

If the bids exceed $6,000 I'll pay to have the brakes looked at/repaired prior to shipping or pick-up.

Toyota Matrix discontinued for 2014

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

Between its slow sales and the upcoming redesign of the closely related Corolla sedan, things haven't been looking good for the Toyota Matrix (for some time now). After 10 years on the market, Toyota has officially announced that it will drop the Matrix from its US lineup following the 2013 model year.
The announcement was made as a part of a press release breaking down what's new for Toyota in 2014, but for now, it doesn't look like any Toyota-branded product will fill the Matrix's spot. The Matrix and its sister car, the defunct Pontiac Vibe, were the final vehicles developed under the joint venture between Toyota and General Motors, an arrangement launched back to 1984.

2014 Toyota 4Runner revealed at Stagecoach Music Festival

Sat, 27 Apr 2013

Toyota has just pulled the sheet off its updated 2014 4Runner at the 2013 Stagecoach Music Festival near Palm Springs, California. Toyota is the title sponsor at the festival, and claims that this is the first ever global reveal of a new automobile at a major music festival. We're also guessing this is the first time that the 4Runner has seen duty inside what looks like a vintage circus act's cage.
We can see from the photos (and the earlier teaser images) that the body-on-frame SUV has received a freshened look with new smoked light fixtures front and rear, along with a reworked front fascia and grille. The profile view seems largely unchanged, though there are new wheel patterns on offer.
The 4Runner will continue to be offered in three trims, including SR5, more luxurious Limited, and off-road-ready Trail specification. Both 4x2 and both part- and full-time 4x4 models will continue to be available, all will be powered by the same 4.0-liter 270-horsepower V6 and five-speed automatic as last year.

Subaru Indiana plant to stop building Toyota Camry

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

Subaru may be set to end production of the Toyota Camry at its Lafayette, IN facility by 2017, according to a report from the Louisville Journal-Courier and a CBS affiliate in Columbia, South Carolina. Speaking to the plant's Executive Vice President Tom Easterday, the whole affair sounds like a done deal.
"Based on changes in Toyota's production plans, they have decided that the award-winning Camry production contract will not be renewed," Easterday said. Easterday was quick to emphasize that just because Camry production would end, doesn't mean jobs will be lost. "There will be no loss of jobs at SIA as a result of this," he said, before adding that the loss of Camry production will have no impact Subaru's $400 million investment to ready the plant for Impreza production in 2016. That said, adding a promised 900 jobs may take longer than originally planned, as Camry production staff are set to be retrained on Subaru production.
SIA currently has the capacity to produce 100,000 Camrys per year, and began production of the family sedan in 2007 alongside production of the Subaru Outback, Legacy and eventually, the soon-to-be-discontinued Tribeca.
