Tucson, Arizona, United States

1989 Toyota Land Cruiser Fj62, 4WD.  All original, in superb condition.
Runs perfectly and is absolutely beautiful.  A/C is very cold.
No mechanical or electrical issues.  Engine runs strong & transmission is smooth.
NO RUST!  This Land Cruiser has lived in the desert of Tucson, Az. for its entire life.  There is no rust for new owner to remove.
Two owners only; I bought this vehicle from a friend in 1992 and I have owned it ever since.
All maintenance records.  Original tool kit and jack.  Original owner's manual, original window invoice from 1989.
This vehicle has never been in an accident.  The body has no dents.  It has had no body work whatsoever.  It has never sat un-driven for more than two weeks.
It has brand new BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A tires.
New front brakes.  Other recent work includes front seal and gearbox replacement.
Everything is original (even has the original mud flaps and carpet) except radio, which was replaced with a Pioneer FH-P4100.  And seats were recovered many years ago to match original.
Vehicle has always passed emissions 1st try.
No smoker has ever sat in this vehicle.

New owner must pick up or make arrangements to ship vehicle.  I am a private party with no experience in shipping vehicles!

The negatives are few, but must be mentioned.  First and foremost, this is a 25 year old vehicle... if you want brand new & perfect then buy a new Land Cruiser!  The paint is original and there is some natural fade on the hood and driver's side window frame.  I have done my best to capture this in photos.  The seats are slightly worn, as shown in the photos (but no rips or tears).  There are significant cracks on the top of the dash on the driver's side (but no cracks on the passenger's side, or the front of the dash... i.e. instrument panel).  The sale includes a matching dashmat.  The engine has minor drips (as do all old Land Cruisers).  The rear passenger's inside door panel has cracks down low, which are shown in photos.  The passenger's side front speaker cover has minor cracks which can be seen in photos.  I am unsure if the antenna motor works, because the radio has always worked great in the down position and I'm afraid to try it!  There are, of course, minor blemishes on the paint which any 25 year old vehicle will have.

I am not a mechanic and I know nothing about vehicle restoration... so if I've left anything out please ask questions.

These are incredible iconic vehicles.  Thanks for looking!! 

$500 Nonrefundable deposit is due immediately via Paypal.  The balance must be paid in full within 3 days of auction close by cash in person, or certified check/money order via FEDEX. 


Sorry... the fine print.  There are no warranties.  This vehicle is sold as is.  You are encouraged to come and inspect the vehicle prior to making an offer or placing a bid.  If you are unable to come see it, you can hire an independent inspection service to check the vehicle for you.  This is a 25 year old vehicle and there will be blemishes.  There will be signs of wear and tear that do not show up in pictures or descriptions despite my best efforts.  As much as I have tried to represent this vehicle fairly, my impression of this vehicle may vary from yours.

Finalists for 2014 Green Car of the Year announced

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

The list of finalists for the 2014 Green Car of the Year has been announced, and in a genuinely bizarre twist, there's only one hybrid and no electric vehicles among the five contestants, despite the arrival of cars like the BMW i3 and Tesla Model S. Taking the place of the EVs are a pair of diesels, repping a technology that last won a Green Car of the Year award in 2009, when the Audi A3 TDI took the title. No diesel was in the running for last year's award.
Naturally, both of the diesel finalists are fielded by the Germans - with BMW's 328d and Audi's A6 TDI getting the nod. In the case of the 3 Series, BMW installed a 2.0-liter, turbodiesel, capable of delivering 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, while returning 45 miles per gallon on the highway. Audi and its larger, 3.0-liter, V6 turbodiesel produce quite a bit more grunt, with 240 hp and 428 lb-ft of grunt, but net a very impressive 38 mpg on the highway in the A6.
Finalists for this year's awards include two diesels, three gas-powered cars and a plug-in hybrid.

Toyota and Lexus show off advanced safety research vehicle [w/video]

Tue, 08 Jan 2013

While Google and Audi explore the possibilities of autonomous vehicles, Toyota and its Lexus division are studying the intermediate step of vehicles equipped with a deep suite of technology that help drivers make the best decisions. Introduced at this week's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the Lexus advanced safety research vehicle is an LS sedan fitted with three high-def color cameras to detect objects up to almost 500 feet away, 360-degree Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) lasers that can detect objects up to 220 feet away, three radar units to keep track of other vehicles at intersections, a precision odometer on the rear wheel, GPS that estimates orientation and an accelerometer.
Currently testing at a purpose-built 8.6 acre urban testing ground at the Higashi-Fuji Technical Center in Susono, Japan the Toyota research vehicle is being used to study how to make better drivers, as well as figuring out how to reduce crashes as the industry's journey through passive and active safety systems progresses. In the event of a crash, new rescue systems are also being tested.
Further investment is being put into the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) that would use shortwave signals to harness information from the car and from other vehicles on the road, as well as roadside infrastructure and even pedestrians. Toyota reasons it could then build a picture of interactions and, for instance, alert the driver to a potential collision at a blind intersection.
