This FJ60 Land Cruiser is a rare find. It has the highly sought after 350 Chevy conversion ($6000) and the engine has only around 45000 miles on it and does not leak oil. It's great to open the hood and see the simple Chevy 8-cylinder instead of the miles of tubing and emissions equipment on the original 2F engines.  This conversion gives you better mileage and more power. And if you ever need to work on it, parts are readily available and super-cheap.  Transmission is AUTOMATIC!  It is the turbo-hydromatic 400.The vehicle itself has approximately 180000 miles and is in great shape. Little to no rust. It lacks the typical problems of FJs of this era (no sagging headliner, no cracked seats, no rust). Tires are very new and have half a nickel of tread.  Air-conditioning blows ice cold.  It drives straight as an arrow.  Never been in an accident!  Lack of rust is due to the fact that this FJ grew up in California.  I bought it from a guy in Sacramento about a year ago and brought it to Minneapolis.


The bad:  Speedometer doesn't work very well when it's cold, and the blinker does not turn off on its own after a left turn.  You have to manually move it back.  Salvage title is due to the fact it was stolen and stripped to nothing (**not due to being in an accident**).  A body shop bought it and rebuilt it with the new engine, transmission, interior, wheels in 1999.  If you see and drive it, you will clearly realize it has never been in an accident.  Previous owner will confirm this information if necessary.

Toyota recalling 11,200 Scion iQ models over faulty passenger sensors

Wed, 07 Nov 2012

Toyota has announced a voluntary recall of 11,200 Scion iQ models from the 2012 and 2013 model years. According to the manufacturer, the problem with these pint-sized hatchbacks concerns the front passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) weight sensor cables.
The OCS sensors in the front passenger seat control the operation of things like the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioner. In these affected models, the cables for these sensors located in the seat track can become damaged as the passenger seat slides forward and backward. And if the cables are damaged, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioner may not function properly.
No injuries or crashes have been reported in conjunction with this issue.

Rod Millen to face Monster Tajima in Electric Division of Pikes Peak Hill Climb

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

The 91st running of the Pike's Peak International Hill Climb is scheduled to begin on June 30. Like last year's event, the 12.42 mile course - fully paved these days - starts at 9,390 feet elevation and doesn't stop climbing until it reaches an impressive 14,110 feet (the air is so thin up there that the FAA requires pilots to use oxygen at that altitude).
There will be an assortment of internal combustion machines racing to the summit, entries from France, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Sweden, Brazil, Canada, Great Britain, Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland and Belgium, but all eyes will be on the electric showdown between Rod Millen and Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima, from Japan. 61-year-old Millen is a familiar name to Toyota racing fans, and he will be driving the Toyota TMG EV P002 (it won the Electric title last year), while Tajima will be again piloting the Monster Sport E-Runner (which was forced out of the field last year after a fire broke out).
Other entrants include Rhys Millen driving a 2013 Hyundai PM58OT and Paul Dallenbach, who will be driving Millen's Hyundai Genesis Coupe (it set the all-time speed mark last year).

Unintended acceleration settlement hits Toyota's Q4 bottom line

Fri, 09 May 2014

Depending on how you want to look at things, the US Attorney's Office $1.2-billion dollar settlement with Toyota in March over its unintended acceleration recall was either a big blow to the company or completely inconsequential. From January to March, net income fell five percent to 297 billion yen ($2.89 billion), compared to 313.9 billion yen ($3.05 billion) a year ago. However, the automaker still posted record full-year profits worldwide.
Operating profit also fell in the US by 9 percent to $498.1 million for the quarter, but sales were up by 6 percent to 581,261 vehicles. According to Automotive News, global revenue was still up from January to March by about 13 percent and vehicle sales were up 6 percent to 2.58 million units.
However, the payment to the feds did little to hold the company back last year. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, Toyota had net income of 1.82 trillion yen ($17.7 billion), compared to 962.1 billion yen ($9.5 billion) in the last fiscal year. Total vehicle sales were also up.
