I am selling my 1987 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60.
Exterior: The body of this truck is in average condition for a Land Cruiser. It does have rust on the bottom of the body (Rockers, wheel wells, etc) as well as underneath/frame. Please note that this vehicle has spent most of its life in Indiana and is subject to harsh winters. Most Land Cruisers have rust, so this should be no shock to a buyer. As far as I could tell, There is no rust on the roof or tailgate (These are other usual Land Cruiser rust spots). Some of the rust has been repaired/prevented by a previous owner. From 10-15 feet away, the truck looks pretty good for the age. It's still certainly a head turner, especially in the Midwest where classic Land Cruisers are VERY uncommon. The roof was recently painted with a white Plasti-Dip spray. This spray can be removed like a sticker if you do not like the look. The same can be said for the grille and front/rear bumpers. Again, it removes like a sticker causing no damage to the surface below. I had this done to customize the appearance and give it a more classic Land Cruiser look!
Interior: The interior of this truck is in good condition for the year. The dash board does have a few cracks in it. You can purchase a color matched dash cover for around $100 right here on eBay. The seats are in good shape, but the driver's seat was replaced with one from a newer Toyota, and is a different gray cloth material, but doesn't look bad. In my research, I have found that Dodge Neon seats are a direct replacement for these trucks. I am in the process of locating a clean set of these to include in the sale (However, I cannot guarantee I find them before the auction is over). If I do find a set, you will receive the Land Cruiser seats with the truck. The carpet is in decent shape, but has nice rubber floor mats to protect it. Recently installed was a Pioneer CD player with a direct iPod control cable that will charge and connect your iPod while using it. Additionally, new front and rear speakers were installed (Kicker/Sony). The sound quality is nice!. All the glass is in good shape with no cracks. The door locks and windows work just fine (Crank windows/manual locks). The headliner is very clean and not sagging (Rare for a Land Cruiser). Also added were aftermarket Oil Pressure, Coolant Temperature, and volt meter gauges. The factory gauges work, but in my research I found that many Land Cruiser enthusiasts prefer aftermarket gauges to the OEM gauges due to the ability to get a more accurate reading from the new gauges.
Mechanical: This is one of the smoothest, quietest running vehicles I have ever owned. It idles nicely and drives smooth. From a distance, it is so quiet you can barely hear it run! The 4x4 works and the hubs lock and unlock with ease. The brakes work just fine and stops the vehicle well. The rear shoes may need to be replaced down the road because they make noise from time to time when stopping. I will include a set of new shoes for the winning bidder. Additionally, it will need new shocks or shock mounts, as they make noise when going over a bump. It also does not have a spare tire (I have no idea why). Newer parts are a full tune up, fluid changes, carburetor sorting and tune, power steering pump, thermostat, clutch master cylinder, choke cable, CD player & speakers (As indicated above), and a new battery with tooless/quick disconnect terminals. All exterior lights work properly.
Other: The previous owner informed me that some emissions equipment was removed some time ago. If you are in a state that checks for emissions on this old of a vehicle, you will need to check about that status. Indiana does not perform mandated emissions testing statewide, thus this Land Cruiser has not been subjected to any testing and I do not know if this would/will pass your state's emission requirements. Additionally, some time ago the Air Conditioning compressor and it's hoses going to the inside of the car were removed (I am unsure why). This truck IS equipped with A/C, so you should be able to source the other pieces from a salvage yard, parts store, or other places to get your A/C working again. The heat is HOT and will keep you warm in cold weather. It even has a blower under the passenger seat that can be adjusted from hot to cold, and it still works!
Mileage/Title/Additional Information: The title on this truck is CLEAN AND CLEAR, and not rebuilt. It is registered in my name and ready to be signed over to a new owner. The mileage information on the title, as issued by the State of Indiana is exempt. I was informed by a representative from the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles that vehicles over ten years old are usually subject to being labeled as exempt from mileage. Also, this truck has 159,000 miles. The speedometer needle broke while driving and I replaced the entire gauge cluster with a different one, so the odometer reads 119,000 miles. Again, this is exempt from the State of Indiana odometer information as indicated on the title, but I wanted to inform of the speedometer change-out. Regardless, this is still low mileage for a Land Cruiser, and really a Toyota in general. It is very hard to find one with less than 200,000 miles on it.
Bidding: By bidding on this auction, you agree that you have read all information in this listing and understand the condition, age, and anything mentioned in the title. I will check all bidder's feedback. If you have been known to be a non-paying bidder in the past, I will contact eBay and cancel your bid. Please only bid if you intend to purchase the Toyota.
Winning Bidder: By winning this auction, you agree to all terms as disclosed in this auction. By 48 hours after the auction close, you will pay a $500 deposit via PayPal, additionally, you will also pay a $75 handling/document preparation fee (This is on top of the entire purchase price, so Purchase Price + $75= Total Amount and also includes a final wash, wax, and interior detailing). By the end of seven days of winning the auction, you agree to send a certified check from your bank for the remaining balance. The vehicle and title will not be released until this check clears with my bank. This is pretty standard for vehicles sold on eBay. If you do not pay any amount by the end of the seven days, you will be reported to eBay as a non-paying bidder, and you agree to be charged a $50, non-refundable fee for failing to pay. This will be done via PayPal and is, again, not refundable. Additionally, you forfeit any chance of being able to purchase the vehicle and will be blocked if I must re-list the Land Cruiser.
Shipping: Shipping of this vehicle is the buyer's responsibility. I agree to work with the buyer and shipping company to arrange a time for the vehicle to be picked up. Please choose a shipper with a good reputation.
Other Information: All information provided is given according to the best knowledge of the seller at the time of this listing. This vehicle is a used vehicle, and is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty expressed or implied. Registration, insurance, and any additional fees in the future are the sole responsibility of the buyer. There are no refunds or returns on the vehicle. Also, I do have this truck for sale locally, and reserve the right to end this auction early if it sells locally.

With Ford and General Motors both announcing an end to production in Australia, the country's auto industry is in a bad way. With the exit of two big players, there's increased concern that a third Australian manufacturer, Toyota, will be forced out, as well.
"We are saddened to learn of GM Holden's decision. This will place unprecedented pressure on the local supplier network and our ability to build cars in Australia," Toyota Australia said in a statement. The GM closure of Holden production will be the direct end to 2,900 jobs, but will also force a dramatic reduction in the size of the country's supplier network, as there will simply be fewer cars to build.
In the same statement, Toyota Australia said it would work with suppliers and local government to figure out whether continuing production Down Under was even feasible. According to Automotive News, a representative for the Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union told reporters it was "highly likely" that Toyota would also close up shop within the next few years.

After tons of teasing, Toyota finally unveiled the all-new 2014 Corolla in the wee hours of the - at least to those of us here in the Midwest. The fresh new face of the US-spec car takes a number of cues from the Camry and Avalon sedans, and in S trim with the large alloy wheels and blacked-out front fascia, we'd even venture this is the most boldly styled North American Corolla to date (faint praise as that may be).
Of course, our friends in other markets will also be getting fully updated versions of the Corolla as well, and here, we're getting our first glimpse at the European-spec car, complete with a very different front fascia that, at least in this trim, seems to take a more conservative design approach. A quick poll of the Autoblog staff shows that we're torn as to whether or not we prefer this European look to our North American-specific car, but at least in the sporty-ish S trim, we think the Americans may have got the better end of the deal.
The Euro-spec Corolla actually shares a lot of its design with its larger platform-mate, the Auris, a car that we don't - and likely won't - get in the States. Inside, the European Corolla looks basically the same as the NA car, and while market-specific engines and specifications haven't been released yet, it's expected that the Corolla will share much of its dirty bits with the European Auris, as well.

Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Jay Rockefeller, D-WV, held an all-day summit on Thursday to discuss the dangers of using modern technology while driving, during which an ad that Mazda aired during the Super Bowl was used as an example of the worrisome future towards which we're headed. While seemingly innocuous at first glance, the ad, which can be seen below, shows a brief glimpse of a driver using the Mazda Connect infotainment system in a Mazda3 to check/update his Facebook page while driving down the road.
Officials from major communications companies like Samsung, Google and Apple attended the summit, as well as representatives from automakers including General Motors and Toyota. A representative from Mazda was not present despite the company's own currently available technology being used as the poster child for the issues being discussed.
According to Automotive News, Senator Rockefeller warned the automaker and communication execs on hand that he will propose legislation to regulate the use of technology while driving if they don't work together to implement their own standards more quickly. Michael Robinson, GM's vice president of sustainability and global regulatory affairs, argued that his company has had distracted driving guidelines in place for 15 years since the advent of its OnStar system, noting that the technology in question has also helped the automaker save lives through automatic crash detection and calls to 911.
