This did not sell the first time around but had a ton of interest. Since I don't see any other FJ45"s on the auction right now I'll give it one more try. I have lowered the reserve but please don't ask. I do reserve the right to end the auction early.
Well my friends didn't think I would get rid of this but I don't use it enough to warrant keeping it. I bought this 4 years ago with the intention of adding lockers and heading for the Rubicon trail (my back yard) but this is to nice for me to slam into a rock so here we are.
I bought this from Scott at Eco Off Road, it was his daily driver. He had just finished a short bed with a B3.3 and a 5 speed. He had Proffit cruisers install the rebuilt axles, Cummins B3.3 (crate motor) and the TH475 automatic transmission some time around 2005. It has later model fine spline axles with 3.73 gears, power brakes with front disc, Saginaw power steering, Toyota split transfer case, and 2.5" lift.
I added the Warn 8274 last year ($1500.00) and 5 new tires (33's). Spare wheel not an exact match of what's on truck but close enough. I also have pipe doors that go with the truck (great when you take the top off). New battery last week. Tool box lid is dented and key is broken off in lock so it stays locked all the time and I use a screwdriver to unlock. High lift jack stays with truck.
Truck was originally red and someone did a great job on the green paint. Some body filler in a couple of spots if you get out a magnet but not much and great for the age of the truck. Some places are a little faded but some wax will brighten it up. Drivers door has a hole cut on the inside to help get lower hinge bolts out. The original metal holder that held the nuts had rusted away. One bolt is broken off on the passenger door lower hinge. Wipers work but need replaced and the arm on the passenger side does not match correctly. Both door vents have been sealed closed since I bought it and the drivers door is missing the hardware. Heater box and hoses are rough but work well enough for California for I was planning to add vintage air some day.
Less than 10,000 miles on the motor (new crate) since installed. I do not have any idea of original mileage on the truck it's self.
If I was going to keep it I would get the fuel tank sealed. When filled up the seams get wet. No big deal because I use it so little so I have not done it. Both seats need repair or recovered at sometime also. I have not checked but I do not think it has a thermostat in it. Runs between 160 and 180 degrees on the flat with the electric fan off. On a long hill temp may rise to a little over 200 degrees before the fan kicks in then the temp goes down as you are going up hill. Great cooling system, aluminum radiator with dual fans. If I lived in a cooler area I would add the thermostat.
Glass has no cracks but there are some scratches. Windows roll up and down a little stiff.
Will cruise 65 all day long but will only get around 20mpg at that speed. I get 22 to 24 mpg cruising around town.
I can send more pictures and take some more if needed.
Currently registered in California and is available for inspections. Please come take a look.
Bidders with less than 5 feedback please contact me before you bid or it will be removed.
Call 530/401-3552, text or email with any questions.
It runs great, drives great and will last somebody a very long time. This is not a trailer queen or a gussied up import just a great all around truck.
Just realized that cruiser fest is next month. If the buyer is interested after payment I can keep the FJ at my house and if you fly into Sacramento I'll pick you up take you to your truck so you can head to cruiser fest.
Had a couple of people ask about the stereo system. None, I find that singing is better for the soul. Dash is uncut, holes where old 4 wheel drive handle was and misc. from factory. Good places for toggles for added accessories in the future. Went to town this morning and remembered that the emergency brake is hooked up but needs adjustment. Right now it won't hold do-do.
Truck now shows 9750 miles as of 8/10/13.

Toyota Prius + gets refresh in UK, is it coming here?
Fri, 10 Oct 2014Toyota has unveiled a mid-cycle refresh of its seven-passenger, UK-market Prius +, known here in the US as the five-passenger Prius V. The revised hybrid MPV now boasts looks inspired by Toyota's more aggressive compact stylings as seen on its new Yaris and Aygo - particularly in the redone front fascia.
The new LED headlights are the most obvious change, sporting a sharper style, while the vertical slats that bookend front fascia are much larger and deeper, and are now home to LED running lights. The lower grille is also newly enlarged and trimmed in black plastic. Changes out back are far less noticeable, with the biggest tweak being a new diffuser that's been integrated into the rear bumper.
The interior gets a light freshening, too, with fresh trimmings around the switchgear, as well as a new 4.2-inch TFT display in the center mounted instrument cluster. The latter includes a new "Eco Judge" function designed to help owners drive more efficiently through a point-based reward system.
Toyota sizzle reel gives better look at i-Road Geneva concept
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Toyota is taking the tiny tandem Tango to Tron town. In a teaser video for the new i-Road, debuting at the Geneva Motor Show next week, we catch a light-bike-like glimpse of Toyota's quirky tandem-seat concept. We still don't know much about the vehicle itself, but the video does flash the words "fun, compact, emissions-free," which suggests this is an electric ride. Then comes the apparent tagline: "i Roll, i Rock i Road." An indication that the tilting image we see in the video isn't just a special effect, perhaps? We'll have to wait until we get to Switzerland next week to find out. Until then, you can watch the video below.
In more earthly reveals, Toyota will also show off its hotly anticipate FT-86 Open sports car concept and Auris Touring Sports wagon on its Geneva show stand.
This first-gen Toyota Celica is one mean mother
Tue, 09 Jul 2013Brian Karasawa's gen-one Toyota Celica is, in a word, badass. As a long-standing fan of the marque, the doting owner has tried to both restore and improve his Celica keeping period-correct modifications in mind. The 20R/22R mashup engine is outputting roughly 185 horsepower and graced with a lot of JDM-specific parts and modifications. Clearly, the exhaust has been upgraded from stock, as clips of the orange Toyota in motion are accompanied by one hell of a nice sound.
Tastes clearly vary, and there's not as much love for the first-wave of Japanese metal as there is for similar era American-iron, but we're pleased to see these cars finally getting more time in the spotlight. Scroll down below to see why we're stoked, and consider cruising your local Craigslist for late 1970s and early 1980s Japanese coolness (before we get there first).
