Rare Classic 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser Fj40 on 2040-cars
San Marcos, Texas, United States
Up for auction is a great 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. This
truck was originally a California truck.
I bought this truck a while back with the plan to keep it and restore it
little by little, but life gets in the way, and now I have to sell her. This truck is a 90% original and is 95% rust free!
As you can see from the pictures, she is in great shape and has not had any
body panels cut and has all of the factory original glass The odometer reads 295,961 miles, but the
motor went through a complete factory rebuild by the previous owner a few years
ago and runs strong! The FJ40 retains all of the factory smog/emissions
equipment and is 100% emissions compliant.
She has a 4 in. Suspension Lift and (5) brand new 33x10.50 BFG KM2
tires. The truck was recently aligned
when I installed new tires and drives & tracks strait as an arrow. The interior of the truck is > 90% original with the
original factory headliner and dome light still intact. All seats and interior
door panels have been recently re-upholstered and are in great shape. There are
absolutely no electrical issues and the truck could easily be used as a daily
driver as is. However, with very minimal work, the truck could be taken from a
survivor to a full blown reservation. As
I have replaced parts, I have installed OEM factory Toyota replacement parts when
available and a few top qualities Aftermarket parts when OEM was not
available. List of parts is too long to
put on here, but if you have questions please don’t hesitate to contact me. Additionally, I still have all of the original
stock parts that were replaced with aftermarket parts (bumper, suspension,
etc.) that you are welcome to take if you buy the truck. Shipping: I am happy to help arrange and coordinate shipping within
the continental 48 United States. Shipping will be at winning bidders cost. Payment: The winning bidder is required to pay $1,000
non-refundable deposit within 24 hours of winning the auction. Remainder of
payment due within 7 days of auction end. Vehicle will not be released to
winning bidder until funds have been received and cleared any banking holds. Contact Info: Please contact me with any questions that you have prior
to bidding. My email address is: rdk08@yahoo.com I have this vehicle listed locally as well and reserve
the right to end the auction early if purchased through an alternate means. |

GT Academy returns, and why Gran Turismo 6 demands a pedal/wheel setup
Fri, 18 Apr 2014The path to become a racing driver is a difficult one. It requires starting early, with karts, and then building up through the years and if you're really, really good (and really, really lucky), a team will notice you and sign you up. Or, you know, you could just become really good at Gran Turismo, and beat out other like-minded fanatics for a seat in the GT Academy.
The racing school, which culls its students from the ranks of Gran Turismo players has already pumped out successful racers, most notably, Lucas Ordoñez, who has a second and third-place finish under his belt at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. With the 2014 GT Academy kicking off April 21 and running through June 16, you could have a chance to be the next Ordoñez.
That won't be easy, though. We recently had a playthrough on GT6 the proper way - with a racing seat, pedals and a steering wheel, complete with column-mounted paddles. (Our setup looked just like the one you see above, though that image is from E3.) In other words, it was as close to driving an actual car as most console games can get.
Manga stylized Toyota Aygo takes on Godzilla
Thu, 13 Nov 2014Japan has given the world so much to enthuse over. We're not sure the Toyota Aygo is necessarily one of them as much as, say, the Scion FR-S or Lexus LFA (especially since it's actually made in Europe), but for many Nipponophiles, the centuries-old artistic discipline of Manga certainly is. And now the two have come together in this two-and-a-half-minute animated short.
In Toyota's own take on the classic narrative, an Aygo animated by celebrated artist Sonia Leong takes on Godzilla. As in, a giant lizard rampaging through a Japanese city, not the Nissan GT-R, against which the little Toyota would certainly stand even less of a chance by any metric other than affordability, fuel economy or ability to park in tight spots.
In any case, watch this Manga-fied video above, and feel free to read through the related press release below.
Toyota's Psy-style Waku-Doki ad inherits Japan's bizarre ad crown
Tue, 29 Jul 2014A new Japanese Toyota ad featuring crisply suited businessmen driving into the jungle only to segue into a Psy-style music-video dance-off with a gorilla and natives is the latest car commercial to go viral. Jungle Wakudoki is the newest installment in a grand tradition of bizarre ads from the island nation that are by turns hilarious, head-scratching and occasionally even frightening.
Let's face it: My people are weird.
I'm half-Japanese and take suitable pride in my Asian roots, but even I can't figure out what's been slipped into the water coolers of the country's ad agencies much of the time - or the nation at large, for that matter. From Japan's ubiquitous obsession with all things adorable (kawaii) to its offbeat sense of humor and its bizarrely perverse and violent tentacle porn, it's clear there's a lot going on in the culture, and only some of it bubbles up to the surface in its marketing efforts. Much of the strangest and most amazing ads are for non-transportation products (e.g. laundry soap, snacks, energy drinks), but the automotive space has its fair share. This latest Toyota ad had me trawling YouTube for a common theme, trying to make sense of why these spots are the way they are. Scroll down to watch the Toyota ad in question as well as a bunch of other examples of Japan's most bizarre car-related ads and see if you can't find the thread that runs between them. Is it just that something's being lost in translation? Have your say in Comments.
