Rare Right-hand Drive Bj42 Diesel on 2040-cars

Year:1983 Mileage:120000
Location:

Kailua, Hawaii, United States

Kailua, Hawaii, United States

Imported from Australia, this is an extremely rare vehicle. The BJ model is the foreign version of the Land Cruiser FJ40, and is equipped with a factory diesel engine. The 3B diesel is a naturally aspirated, inline 4 cylinder, producing 90hp and 160 ft-lb of torque. Since the diesel option was not available on US models, it is very hard to find a Land Cruiser in the states with one. Not only does the diesel engine get great gas mileage, 20-25 mpg, but it's torque and reliability is unmatched by similar gas engines.

If you are looking for a unique, reliable, and fun vehicle, this truck is for you. It has only 120,000 original miles and is in great condition for a vehicle of its age and use. The body is straight and paint is in good condition. There is some known rust damage to the left rear quarter panel where the spare tire carrier mounts, as well as the front windshield frame and interior top frame. These areas are shown in the pictures. It has been used as a daily driver and has no known mechanical issues. The title is clear and free, so the truck is ready to sell! Below are some features of the truck.

New version of Toyota FT-1 Concept gets racy for Gran Turismo 6

Thu, 07 Aug 2014

Gran Turismo 6 has been the preferred marketing springboard for quite a few brands and concept cars since its debut last winter. Specifically the GT Vision concept idea - allowing manufacturers a built-in place to offer up new, original, drivable content - has enticed the likes of Mercedes, Nissan, Volkswagen, Toyota and more to dream big on the digital stage before pulling the sheets back on real concept cars.
In fact, Toyota teamed its live reveal of the FT-1 Concept at the Detroit Auto Show with an in-game launch of the car, just this past January. Looking for a second bite at the GT6 apple, Toyota has just released a teaser video for a new, FT-1 Vision GT version of the same concept.
The company isn't giving us much to go on save for the 30-second video, saying only that the concept was penned by Toyota's Calty Design Research team in California, and that it will "soon be available for download." By the looks of it, the new FT-1 seems to be more of a racecar than the original, without obvious changes to the basic form. No word on whether or not there's a physical concept car in the offing at a yet-to-be-named auto show. Stay tuned.

Toyota GT86 engineer Tada recounts how sports car came to be

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Because the Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ coupes are now a reality, it's almost hard to imagine the struggle that had to happen within the large, conservative corporate structures at both automakers for the joint project to even get off of the ground.
Speaking to those struggles on Toyota UK's Toyota Blog, GT86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada enlightens us with a recap of the sports car's earliest origins. For Tada, the first stages of the project must have seemed almost as dreamlike as the final product is to drive.
Said the Chief, "I had been working in the minivan department engineering new product, but a month after the meeting I was summoned. 'Forget about minivans,' they said, 'you are now working on the sports-car project.'"

Toyota Prius owners targeted by tire-slashing VA vandal

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Toyota Prius owners aren't bad folks. With a few exceptions, they're just normal people that appreciate the comfortable, high-mileage hybrid. Someone in Arlington, Virginia doesn't see it that way, though, as 14 examples (and one Smart) had at least one tire slashed last Sunday night.
The serial tire-slasher didn't any items from the vehicles, but he or she has left owners with substantial bills and sour dispositions. According to a report from ABC affiliate WJLA, some citizens are considering the matter a hate crime.
Despite the targeting of Toyota hybrids and the acquisition of one fingerprint, police have been unable to make any arrests, as the slasher has targeted vehicles across the county. Take a look at the local news report from WJLA below.
