1963 Toyota Land Cruiser on 2040-cars

Saint Thomas, Pennsylvania, United States

Here you have a very hard to find, original (with exceptions noted) Land Cruiser.  It has had a full top to bottom restoration with no expense spared. 

So first things first, here is the bad.  The tires are obviously not original and the side steps, hinges and spring shackles are aftermarkets from Cool Cruisers.  That's it.  Everything else is original to this year. 

It is titled a 1966 but it is in fact a 63 by the serial number.  You will look a long time to find another even close.  We even rebuilt the engine complete with pistons and a new head.  All body repairs were done with a welder.  There is no body filler in this Cruiser.  It also has the original tool kit and jack. We did not replace the wiring harness because the original harness was virtually flawless. 

For those of you who know Land Cruisers know what this one offers and can't deny what an incredible find this one is.  From the bi-fold back doors to the bug catcher vent window, this one is an exceptional piece.  Pictures pretty much tell the story but if you have specific questions, please ask. 

I will not accept bids from out of USA.  If you are from outside of the US and would like to bid, you will need to find and agent here in the states to handle the transaction.  Sale is final as is where is.  No warranty is expressed or implied.  Keep in mind, you are buying a 50 year old vehicle.  I have done my best to accurately describe the vehicle and provided ample pictures to show the condition.  Payment is due immediately at the end of the auction.  Cash, check, certified check, money order or transfer are acceptable means of payment.  Any checks must be accompanied by a letter of guarantee from the bank which it is written and clear funds prior to pickup.  No shipping is included.  I reserve the right to end the auction early as the vehicle is for sale by other means.  Any dogs and kids pictured are not included in the auction.

Guys, (and ladies) bid early and bid often.  You may never get another opportunity on one like this!

Toyota donates engineers, not money, to country's largest anti-hunger charity

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

Key to production of any kind is efficiency - the ability to achieve maximum productivity with minimal effort or waste. Toyota has become a master of efficiency, with streamlined manufacturing operations around the world. In fact, the Japanese brand has become so well known for efficient operations that it now offers consulting services for organizations and companies outside the auto industry.
It also offers the same consulting for non-profits, free of charge. The New York Times took an in-depth look at the transformative impact that Toyota's engineers had on the city's charities, including The Food Bank, the country's largest anti-hunger charity. The auto manufacturer helped revolutionize the way these organizations served the community, showing that there's more to corporate philanthropy than just donating money.
Head on over to the Times' website and give the story a read.

Toyota i-Road is no less strange in the flesh

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

We've seen plenty of three-wheeled creations in our day, but none quite like the Toyota i-Road Concept. The "personal mobility vehicle" offers seating for two with driver and passenger positioned in a tandem position. While that may sound more like a motorcycle than a car, the closed cockpit means riders don't need a helmet. The design also takes a page from the 2008 Peugeot HyMotion3 Concept with an articulating front suspension that allows the driver to lean through corners thanks to "Active Lean" self-balancing technology. Unlike the funky Pug, however, the i-Road is a fully electric plug-in vehicle.
While there are just five-horsepower on hand from an electric motor, the i-Road should serve up a range of around 30 miles thanks to its lithium-ion battery, and Toyota claims the cells can be topped off in three hours with a "conventional domestic power supply." Sounds majestic. Take in the full press release below.

Toyota investing $30 million in Indiana for more Highlander production

Sun, 28 Jul 2013

Indiana seems like the place to be if you're looking for work in a car factory. In May, Subaru announced plans to invest $400 million in its Lafayette, Indiana plant, creating 900 new jobs in the process and increasing capacity to 300,000 units per year. Now, Toyota has announced plans to invest $30 million in its Princeton, Indiana plant, 170 miles south of the Subaru factory, which also builds the Camry.
Toyota's investment will create an additional 200 jobs and increase the factory's volume by 15,000 units. Toyota announced an investment in the plant in February of 2012 that bumped volume up from 300,000 to 350,000 units. Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indiana, as the Princeton facility is officially known, produces the recently revised Toyota Highlander, the Sequoia and the Sienna. It employs 4,500 people, and this announcement represents Toyota's tenth production increase in under two years.
