1975 Toyota Land Cruiser ~ 22, 683 Original miles !  Fantastic original Model. ~ Original Paint \ Top \ Interior

No rust, no major damage.

This is the first year that had the swing out ( left\right) rear doors.

My father bought this new in 1975,  I remember a couple trips to Gorman, CA  with him and he took it to Yosemite one time.  Has been kept in his garage all these years.
Due to illness he did not take it on trips anymore but kept it garaged and would faithfully start it and run it\drive it around the neighborhood.

I put a new battery in it and still runs good around the neighborhood like it always has, but with that said it could probably use a tune up.

I'm older myself and no longer need this super cool 4wd machine.

I have everything, toolkit, manuals, all parts for the winch, etc.

No rust, no major damage, some scratches due to normal minimal use. Headliner has come unglued, temporary hold in place. Small tear in driver seat. Storage box between seats has a small tear and covered with gray tape.

Dad put some extras on it and here is what I see......

Extras: Sliding side glass windows \ Warn winch 8200 series; model 6014 \ Front bumper tool boxes \ Rear toolboxes under jump seats ( these slide out if you don't want them inside) \ Extra\External gas tank ( think 20 gallons?)  CB radio and 8 track player, a 70s car right !  Unfortunately i can not get them to work but they are there. These are on a shelf above the windshield. CB radio ready ball on exterior\ driver side.  Sissy handle bar for the passenger.  A compass on the dash, a silver maplight he had mounted on the dash but another item i can't get to work, (fuse?) 2 fire extinguishers mounted on the roll bars inside and a first aid kit !  A front tow bar but i can not remember him towing it anywhere.

The pictures included were taken with my iphone 4s... please email me with any questions, i can get more pictures,  i can describe more, we can talk on the phone, etc. 
It is in the garage now in Torrance, CA  ( i'm not far, down the freeway)

Buyer pays and arranges all shipping costs.  Please do not bid if you do not intend to purchase.

Would love to have someone get this who would love it as much as my father did.


NOTE:  I removed the old spare tire cover in some on the pictures, it is not included.  I also switched out Dad's personal license plate and changed the title to my name \ Son at the DMV.

Thanks !

Toyota has two all-new 8-passenger SUVs in the works, and one's a Lexus

Thu, Apr 29 2021

Toyota announced yesterday that its Princeton, Indiana, manufacturing plant is getting a big $803 million infusion of cash. The reason? Toyota casually dropped that it will soon build “two all-new, three-row SUVs” there. TheyÂ’ll be “designed with the active Gen Y American Family in mind,” which is another way of saying that Toyota is targeting Millennials. In case you missed it, Millennials are in their late 20s and 30s now! That means they have growing families and need more space to put them. Both new SUVs will seat up to eight passengers. The other big reveal is that both will be electrified. WeÂ’re going to assume that means theyÂ’ll be regular hybrids in ToyotaÂ’s case, though thereÂ’s every possibility for a PHEV “Prime” version, too. Both will have semi-automated driving systems, advanced enough that they will “allow for hands-free driving in certain conditions.” Plus, there will be a remote parking system that allows “the driver to park and unpark outside the vehicle using a smartphone.” The last nugget of tech Toyota is sharing with us is that both will use a new “digital key” that turns your smartphone into a quasi key and allows you to share it digitally with others. Another bit of information concerning these two is that one will be a Toyota, and the other will be a Lexus. What these two models will be named is not yet clear. Seeing “three-row SUV,” our minds instantly go to Sequoia. That model is as old as it gets these days, and is deeply in need of a redesign — the current generation launched all the way back in 2008. However, Toyota does not explicitly say that this news pertains to the next-gen Sequoia. In fact, previous reports of the Sequoia shifting its production location to San Antonio lead us to believe that this news has absolutely nothing to do with a potential next generation of the SUV. Coincidentally, the Sequoia is currently built at the Princeton, Indiana, plant thatÂ’s getting this investment — that official switchover to Texas is reported to happen sometime in 2022.  ToyotaÂ’s language in this press release, plus the knowledge that Sequoia is leaving Indiana, all indicates that these two three-row SUVs might not be rough-and-tumble body-on-frame off-roaders. TheyÂ’re likely going to be plenty capable (hitting that “active lifestyle” market), but the focus toward families suggests that comfort could be paramount.

Toyota Prius line may not reach 2013 sales target

Mon, 22 Apr 2013

2012 was a good year for the Toyota Prius line, the hybrid that started it all moving 236,659 units, being the best-selling model in California for the year and the Prius C (pictured) being deemed the most reliable car of 2012 by Consumer Reports. Then 2013 happened, and gas prices dropped more than expected, and people haven't been buying the little hybrids like they used to.
A report in Bloomberg says Toyota set 250,000 units as the Prius family's sales target for this year, but hits like the double-digit drop in year-on-year performance in February have helped lower 2013 sales by 8.4 percent compared to 2012, making the objective "a challenge" to reach. The declines in Prius sales come even as hybrid sales overall were up in the first couple of months this year, including sales of other Toyota and Lexus hybrids. Jim Lentz, Toyota's North American chief, said the Prius target would be adjusted if necessary.

Toyota to offer sedan version of GT 86?

Fri, 11 Oct 2013

Sources in Australia are reporting that we'll be seeing a small, rear-drive sedan from Toyota, based on the GT 86/Scion FR-S. Yes, a convertible variant is still in limbo, but a four-door sedan is in the works. It's unclear if the rumored GT 86 sedan would spawn Scion and Subaru variants (it's hard to cross all ten fingers while you type, but we're having a go).
Working with remarks made by the car's chief engineer Tetsuya Tada in his blog and a rendering from Japanese magazine Holiday Auto, the Australian site Motoring is claiming that the new model's wheelbase will grow about four inches over the current GT 86's 101.2-inch wheelbase.
Besides the larger overall space between the axles, the sedan will offer a more potent engine option over the current 2.0-liter, flat-four. Promising 268 horsepower, which is a big jump over the current car's 200 ponies, the new powertrain will be derived from the Hybrid R setup, shown at the Frankfurt Motor Show. If, like us, you're reaching for the salt, and we don't blame you.
