Hello, let me start by saying that I realize how stressful it can be to buy anything sight un-seen. I don't think a paragraph & 1 or 2 pictures is enough to accurately describe an item of any kind, let alone a motor vehicle. I understand that you may be in a different state or even a different Country & therefore are unable to come view this RARE Land Cruiser in person. I want you to know everything I know about anything I offer for sale. For that reason, my postings tend to be a little on the long side. I also post 24 super sized pictures. Please take the time to read the item description & view the pictures. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. All will be answered promptly. I have sold vehicles to buyers all over the world. All members who have bought from me have been extremely pleased with my performance & with the items they have purchased from me, I'm sure you will be as well.

Description- THIS IS A HARD TO FIND MODEL!!!!! This Toyota came equipped with factory front & rear electric LOCKERS! Very very rare!

 I purchased this FJ80 two years ago to use as a parts vehicle for another Cruiser I had. 99% of the parts on this Toyota a usable, as it was being driven daily when the previous owner had her accident. I ended up selling my other FJ without ever taking a single part from this one. I kept it with the plans to turn it into a street legal, rock crawler / mud buggy / Off-Road rig. With very little effort & far less expense, you would have a toy that is way more capable & a lot more fun than a Polaris RZR! This buggy will be street legal all over the World! These Cruisers are capable of covering some of the roughest ground on Earth. Take it coast to coast. Explore South America. Or the Yukon! Many people take them on African Safari or to the Australian Outback. They are super tough vehicles!

 The engine  in this one is extremely tight & still runs great, even after sitting for 2 years! As you can see, this vehicle has been wrecked. The previous owner hit a concrete culvert with the front right tire. The impact was hard enough to pull the CV ball right out of the end of the front axle housing on that side. It bowed the housing slightly but the locker still works as it should. It also bent the control arm on the right front. No mounting points show damage. This is a case of... it looks worse than it really is... I have the front hub put back together to allow the vehicle to drive on & off of a trailer or transporter for shipping. However, there is no steering. The front differential housing will need to be replaced, should you decide to rebuild this vehicle. All of the internals seem to be fine. The brakes are working.

 The frame does not appear to have been bent or tweaked at all. The only real damage seems to have been to the right front inner fender / fender support, the fender itself, the front bumper & other misc front end trim. And of course, the axle housing & control arm. The driver hit the windshield so it is broken & in the rear floor board.

 There is various other damage around the body which appears to have beem prior to the accident. It looks bad but I believe the truck can be put back on the road without much effort. 

 The interior is all there, including the jump seats. I had a tarp over the windshield but it appears some moisture & leaves etc... still got in. The carpet, front seat covers, front door panels etc... show signs of water damage. Yet, the engine controls were NOT damaged. The truck will still fire right up & run smooth with no smoke, knocks, ticks, etc... And there are NO check engine or other warning lights on. The electric locker control switch works as it should. As do the locker indicator lights. Both the front & rear electric lockers are working as they should.

 The transmission will take forward & reverse gears. The transfer case shifts as it should.

 Remember, this vehicle was female owned & daily driven up until the day of the crash.

 

Drivetrain- This vehicle is powered by the legendary 4.5 liter, in-line 6-cylinder, fuel injected 1FZ-FE gasoline powered engine. Toyota has been building some form of this engine since the early 1960's. They have improved & refined their design over the last decades until finally unveiling their masterpiece with this version. It is one of the most powerful & definitely the most reliable of them all. It performs with all the guts you need to tackle tough terrain, yet still enjoys AMAZING fuel economy!

This Cruiser is showing a very low 196,712 miles. This engine runs as good as the day it was born. I can find no problems at all. No hard starting even on the coldest mornings. You can let this car sit for days & go out, hit the key & this big 6 cylinder instantly comes to life. The oil pressure comes right up. I see no major fluid leaks. There are no abnormal noises. Nothing but smooth power.... Even on 2 year old gas!

I am a factory trained Toyota Technician & have personally serviced cruisers with well over 700,000 miles that were still going strong without ever having had any major repairs.

The power plant in this FJ should take you many more dependable miles!

The transmissions in these Cruisers are as tough as everything else. I have never seen one with a transmission problem, EVER.

 And you don't see many with the rare locker option.

Mechanically this entire vehicle seems to be in excellent condition.

Body & Frame- This is a life long Southern vehicle so there is absolutely no rust or corrosion on anything anywhere. The door, hood, trunk hinges & latches are nice & tight. The under side of the vehicle is dirty but everything is tight & free from corrosion.

Options- It would take me an hour to list of of the options found on this Flagship Toyota. With the presence of the extremely rare factory lockers, you can bet that it has EVERY single option you could get in 1994!

Tires & Wheels- This SUV is equipped with a set of factory 15 inch, alloy wheels. All four are in good condition! No curb rash or bent places. All tires hold air but are worn. The factory spare looks as if it has never touched the ground. The factory jack & tool kit are present.

Title- I have a clean, clear, fully transferable GA title on this vehicle. The accident was not reported to the police or insurance & thus there are no records of it on CarFax or AutoCheck. Everything is clean. You can transfer ownership right now. With a little work this Cruiser will be ready for the road in no time. This is my personal vehicle so there will be no tax. I DO NOT charge a doc fee or any other fees like most sellers on eBay do. What you bid is what you pay.

* This is a TRUE auction!

* NO RESERVE!

* Low starting bid!

* You set the final price!

* Bid what you think the Cruiser is worth to you!

* If you are the high bidder at the end... YOU WIN!

BIDDING- Please only bid what you are prepared to pay for this vehicle. Anyone wishing to inspect the it or have it inspected is welcome to do so but inspections must be completed prior to bidding & prior to auction's end. If you have little or no feedback please contact me prior to bidding. I realize everyone has to start somewhere & welcome your business but I must verify that you are a serious buyer if you have little or no buying history. I have encountered a couple of crooks/ scammers here on eBay who have cost me both time & money. This will no longer be tolerated so if you are not a SERIOUS buyer, PLEASE MOVE ON. All members with a genuine interest in this vehicle are more than welcome to ask questions. All will be answered promptly. If you look at my feedback comments you will see that all of the REAL buyers have been very happy after dealing with me. Many of the comments are from people who have been very happy with Cruisers they have bought from me.

SHIPPING- Shipping costs & arrangements are the responsibility of the buyer. However, I have assisted buyers & their shippers in the pickup of several vehicles over the years. I can recommend several shippers who have performed well for buyers in the past but you will have to make your own arrangements with them. I will work with you & your shipper so that they can get this SUV to you as fast & cost effectively as possible. However, no matter where you live or how you choose to pay, the legal point of sell will be here in Jackson County Georgia as that is where I live & where the vehicle is located. As always, you are more than welcome to pick this vehicle up in person. I can assist in loading it on your trailer at no charge.

This Toyota Land Cruiser FJ 80 is truly a rare find. These trucks are TOUGH & stand the test of time! This one needs some work but it is a great start to an amazing rig! Remember... NO RESERVE!

Thanks for your interest in my Landcruiser!

I hope you win!! JD

4th-gen Toyota Prius production delayed by 6 months

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

If you were holding off buying a new car in anticipation of the fourth-generation Toyota Prius arriving in 2015, your wait might be a little longer. Company insiders are claiming that production of the bestselling hybrid is being pushed back from spring to possibly as late as December 2015. Toyota is reportedly still making alterations to make sure everything is just right before it unleashes the all-important, efficient hatch on a waiting public.
According to unnamed sources speaking to Automotive News Europe, the main reasons for the delay aren't completely known. It's believed the engineers are still working on making the hybrid powertrain more efficient and improving the new Toyota Global Architecture modular platform. The insiders claim that the final production prototype of the Prius is still under development, and it might be November before it's finalized. From there, it usually takes around 12 months to tool up and for the first car to roll off the assembly line. It would be another year after that before the plug-in variant starts assembly. The national manager of Toyota Product Communications, Michael Kroll, told AutoblogGreen, "As you might expect, we can't comment on future product plans."
Despite the delay, some potential details have already emerged about the new hybrid. A company spokesperson recently told Autoblog via email that Toyota is engineering the next-gen Prius to have smaller, more power-dense electric motors and greater thermal efficiency. The new modular platform is also rumored reduce weight, and the changes could lead to a targeted 10 percent improvement in fuel economy.

HQ move based on study, not pitch from Gov. Perry, Toyota says

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

Toyota's surprising announcement on Monday that it will move its North American headquarters from Torrance, CA location to the Dallas suburb of Plano, TX is allegedly not due to any political wrangling from the state's Republican governor, Rick Perry.
Perry (above) has been up front in his aggressive pursuit of businesses and jobs for Texas, traveling to California, Missouri, Illinois and New York to tempt corporations to his state. And it's not just about the promise of much lower taxes, a Perry spokesman reminds Automotive News that the state boasts, "a workforce that is skilled and ready to do any job."
For his part, Jim Lentz, Toyota's North American CEO said Plano was chosen through an internal process, with the location helped by its proximity to the company's massive pickup factory in San Antonio rather than any campaigning from the governor.

Jim Lentz exposes more details behind Toyota's move to Texas

Fri, 02 May 2014

Toyota's North American CEO Jim Lentz has already given us a rough idea of what prompted the company's surprise move to the Dallas suburb of Plano, TX from its longstanding headquarters in Torrance, CA. A new story from The Los Angeles Times, though, delivers even more detail from Lentz on the reasoning for the move, what other cities were considered and why the company's current host city wasn't even in the running.
Of course, one of the more popular reasons being bandied about includes the $40 million Texas was set to give the company for the move, as well as the state's generous tax rates. According to Lentz, though, the reason Toyota chose Plano over a group of finalists made up of Atlanta, Charlotte and Denver, was far simpler than that - it was about consolidating its marketing, sales, engineering and production teams in a region that's closer to the company's seat of manufacturing in the south.
"It doesn't make sense to have oversight of manufacturing 2,000 miles away from where the cars were made," Lentz told The Times. "Geography is the reason not to have our headquarters in California."
