Okay..here is a better description of the FJ. What you are looking is an unmolested FJ. This vehicle is titled as a 1964 as identifed on the vin plate. The vin plate identifies the vin as a 3FJ40-18648 which indicates the vehicle is a 1963. Because of the early production on this FJ it has some interesting characteristics rarely seen. One, is the scissor rear door with dual windows and the other is the factory vent in the roof. My research on this vehicle (Spector Off-Road, industry "experts" and Forums) leads me to the conclusion the FJ is one of the last FJs produced in 1963 so therefore has the cosmetic characteristics of a 63 but is actually a 64. If  you are looking for a cool FJ that will set you apart from the other FJs this is the vehicle for you. If you are a FJ enthusiast looking for a great one then dont miss this FJ.

Other than the ugly paint job the FJ's body is in pretty much unmolested condition.  This FJ40 has spent the last 30+ years in Arizona so there is almost no rust. When I got the title it showed it was previously issued in AZ almost 30 years ago. The FJ40 runs, drives, and stops. I have been driving it almost everyday. The transmission is a three speed on the column and the engine is the six cylinder (not original but is a "F")  The FJ has been painted three or four times but I believe the original color was red. At some point it was red, blue, white, and now gray. The interior dash and interior door panels were painted green with rustoleum spray paint so it looks pretty ugly.

The lights, choke, turn signals, and wipers all work. The window regulator on the driver's side needs repaired/replaced and the master cylinder has a slow leak. I will probably fix the master cylinder before the sell of vehicle. The tires have only been driven a few hundred miles. I can not see anywhere that the body or suspension has been modified. The FJ can easily be a daily driver or is perfect for a full restoration. If it is restored you will save a bunch of time without all the rust repair that generally comes with FJs. I also have the original tool kit and jack in the canvas bag but they would be a separate purchase.

Land Rover, Toyota big winners in ALG top resale value awards

Tue, 18 Nov 2014



"Residual value is important for automakers and consumers because it's a complete indicator of the vehicle's future value." - Larry Dominique
Toyota and Land Rover took home the top brand honors in ALG's 2015 Residual Value Awards, which will be presented this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show.

Kia EV9 wins 2024 World Car of the Year and World Electric Car at New York Auto Show

Wed, Mar 27 2024

The Hyundai Group refuses to release its kung-fu grip on winning prestigious vehicle awards, especially those for electric vehicles. In 2020, Kia took the overall World Car of the Year (WCOTY) title with the Telluride, won World Performance Car with the EV6 GT, and won the World Urban Car category with the Kia Soul EV. In 2021, after the Hyundai Group walked away with nothing but a free lunch, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 won the 2022 World Car of the Year laurels, plus World Electric Vehicle and World Car Design of the Year, followed in 2023 by the Hyundai Ioniq 6 winning the same three awards. Kia returns to the top step today, the new EV9 announced at the New York Auto Show as the 2024 World Car of the Year and World Electric Vehicle. Because the South Koreans like to do this in threes, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N won World Performance Car.  One hundred automotive scribes from 29 countries tested 38 vehicles for the main prize. The qualifications for entry are that a car must exceed 10,000 units in production annually, be on sale in at least two major global markets, and be priced below the luxury options in their respective regions. The EV9 beat the BYD Seal and the Volvo EX30 to the WCOTY title. Thirty-two cars vied for honors in the electric category, the EV9 outdoing the BMW i5 and the Volvo EX30. The German and the Swede aren't leaving New York with nothing, however, as the BMW 5 Series and i5 won the World Luxury Car title, and the EX30 won the World Urban Car trophy.  The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N outdid 16 other performance cars. We're sure there are engineers in Germany looking hard into their beer right now, the Ioniq 5 N pipping the M2 and XM to the victory circle.  The surprise of the bunch is the inclusion of the Toyota Prius, the global hybrid icon thrashing 70 other entries to win the 2024 World Car Design of the Year award. The other two finalists? The Ford Bronco and the Ferrari Purosangue. Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for the Prius. 

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
