I am selling a original 1978 FJ40 that I just got and will be slowly restoring. The FJ has the original 2F engine with 70K miles on her and she runs great. Most fjs will leak a little oil, well not this one-no leaking oil!! I just drained all the fluides, installed new fuel filter, new air filter, new TOYOTA fuel pump. put in new full SYNTHETIC OIL with new oil filter, new battery and it has new tires. I just pulled the radiator and will be having it recorded or replaced, either way it will perform like new. I will slowly be restoring this fj to ORIGINAL stock condition, no crazy modifications or chevy engines!!! I am a 100% STOCK guy.
The engine is good, it is the body cosmetics that need attenion. I get most of my parts from Cool Cruisers and they have preformed thicker body parts for restorations. These are NOT cover up parts, they are for cutting the old rusty metal out and new metal going in. After all the parts have been replaced, she will be getting a fresh coat of her original Toyota Freeborn red color. I will continue to slowing work on her and the price will reflect the upgrades. I have another 78 and a 82 that I am doing right now, so this one will be a good 3 weeks or so before she gets her body work done. In the pics I have some of her parts on the fj taken off as I slowly strip her down for prep. When I am done with this fj, she will be a 20K+landcruiser. I am just in the begining but you can have her somewhere along this stage and capture some of the increased value of her. If you have any questions, please let me know

I dont need help selling this fj, scammers will be reported, NO TRADES and fj is being sold as is. You are welcome to preview the fj anytime. I reserve the right to end this aution at anytime as I am selling it locally as well. Winning buyer is required to deposit $2,000 within 24hours of end of auction and the remaining balance within 3 days of end of auction. I WILL NOT do paypal, so cash or wire is preferred. I will help with shipping, but the buyer pays the cost to ship. I have a lady I use for my shipping and she been great for me. I would be happy to give you her name and number

Toyota mulling more Tundra, Tacoma capacity in TX

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

Toyota may be expanding its pickup truck production at its San Antonio, TX factory following calls from dealers for more Tacoma and Tundra models, according to a new report from Automotive News.
The San Antonio plant is currently able to produce 250,000 trucks on two shifts with overtime, while a secondary facility in Tijuana, Mexico can build an extra 50,000 Tacomas. Despite this capacity, and the fact that Tundra is a slow seller relative to the full-size trucks from Ford, Ram and Chevrolet/GMC (not to mention the Tacoma being part of a segment with diminishing sales), Toyota franchisees apparently can't get enough of the trucks.
"Dealers are telling us they could sell more Tacomas and Tundras," said Bill Fay, the general manager of the Toyota Division. "We are evaluating our footprint and capacity." According to AN, Toyota has moved over 248,000 trucks through November.

Toyota GT86 turbo, convertible, sedan variants back on the table

Fri, 02 May 2014

Okay Toyota, make up your mind. Figure it out. Quit playing games with our heart. Either build a bunch of variations of the excellent GT86 (also known as the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ) or don't. At this point, we're just tired of the back and forth. After no shortage of denials, an Australian website is claiming that Toyota is reconsidering convertible, four-door, turbocharged and all-wheel-drive hybrid variants of the GT86. Kindly pass all the salt.
It's not that we don't want to believe the Aussies; we do. But when the story lists the same "sources in Japan" as a lot of the other denials and confirmations about GT86/BRZ/FR-S variants, well, there's a certain sense of the "Boy That Cried Wolf," here. Ignoring all that, then, what does Motoring.com.au claim to know?
Sources claim the GT86 Convertible will arrive in October 2014, while the turbocharged and hybrid sedans are slated for 2016.

Toyota Camry, Honda Civic inventories mounting as US automakers make inroads

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Two of the hottest-selling cars in America aren't quite as hot as they used to be. The Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are both seeing dealer supplies increase in the face of renewed competition from the much-improved Detroit Three.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the Camry's dealer inventory is 15 days higher than its seasonal average, while the Civic is 25 days above average. Things aren't expected to get better for Toyota and Honda, as RBC Capital Markets analyst Joseph Spak marked the two Japanese offerings as "at risk for reduced output."
The Detroit Three, meanwhile, are seeing supplies dwindle as demand increases, especially for the Ford Fusion, which has seen an 18-percent increase in 2013 sales, and the Chevrolet Cruze, which was second only to the Camry in June 2013 sales.
