This is an antique 1961 Toyota FJ40. This is the second year model for the FJ40. The first 3 yrs are very rare and offer a few unique qualities. I am by no means an expert on these trucks, but do know a little bit about them, so if you have any questions I will do my best to answer them.

The following is the history that I know about the FJ:

I purchased the vehicle 5 yrs ago

The engine, brakes, hubs have all been rebuilt in the past 7yrs

The wiring has been redone in the past 7yrs

I put a seat cover on the bench seat

A new weber carb was installed last year due to the fact I could not find any oem carb repair kits

I am told the weber carb will improve the high end a little bit and give it a little better fuel mileage

The wheels and tires I installed 5yrs ago, the are standard chevy 6 bolt pattern

The suspension was also replaced 6yrs ago and had a shackle lift installed

Original 3spd on the tree was converted to 3spd on the floor for easier shifting which came out of a few yrs newer FJ40

This vehicle has been in my storage facility most of the time I have owned it. I have driven it around town here and there, never on the highway. The frame is completely solid, if I kept it any longer I would probably redo the exterior paint back to original red. The tub over all has some rust here and there, which has been removed and repaired.

This FJ could be a great Father/Son project with mostly cosmetic work needed to be perfect.

I have no problem helping coordinate with your shipper anywhere you wish.

I will accept cashiers check, cash or wire transfer. Total must be received within 7 days of auction end.

Meet the Most Elegant Automobile, and it's for sale

Sat, 08 Jun 2013

Alright, so maybe "most elegant" is a bit of a stretch, but we feel safe in calling the 1992 Toyota Paseo in the video below an "automobile." High praise, we know. Still, it's clear someone loves the awkward little coupe enough to produce a hilarious video to sell the thing. Henry Floyd worked up a quick parody of the over-the-top luxury car ads we all know and loathe, and while the finished product is a little skimpy on details like price or location, it certainly doesn't hold back on the exposition.
Hell, if we didn't already have a parade of horrible ideas floating around our collective driveways, we might even be convinced to give this little heap a new home. You can check out the ad for yourself below, just don't be surprised if you find yourself with a burning desire to own a Paseo.

Ram takes out frustrations on Camry

Fri, May 29 2015

No, not a Ram pickup truck. This is an actual ram, as in a male sheep, headbutting the hell out of a Toyota Camry that made the unfortunate decision to interrupt its battle with a rival member of the flock. Now, before you say, "How dare that Camry harm that cuddly sheep," we'd like to point out just how viciously the two males were fighting before the Toyota butted in. And after smashing the driver's side front fascia, the ram goes right back to attempting to beat down its opponent. All things considered then, we'd call this Ram: 1, Camry: 0.

Does Scion's LA concept presage a US Auris?

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

When the doors open at the LA Auto Show in a few weeks, Scion will be on hand to showcase its new iM Concept. But considering what little Toyota's youthful brand has revealed about the concept so far, it's led to rampant speculation. And the prevailing wisdom seems to point towards a production iM arriving as a Scion-badged version of the Toyota Auris.
For those unfamiliar, the Auris is to European (and other) markets essentially what the Matrix is (was?) to ours: a hatchback version of the Corolla. The model line was first introduced in 2006, looking in its first iteration like an overgrown version of the contemporary second-gen Yaris, and was replaced with the current model in 2012. It's available as a five-door hatch or wagon, with a range of gasoline, diesel and hybrid powertrains available.
If the rumors - spurred by the similarity of the iM concept's nose depicted in the teasers - prove accurate, and public reception to the idea ends up spurring Toyota to put it into action, it wouldn't be the first overseas Toyota brought over as a Scion. The Scion iQ was sold as the Toyota iQ overseas years before it arrived here.
