You are looking at a 1970 Toyota LandCruiser FJ40. That was Professionally restored by a Toyota Dealer about 10 years ago. Fj is just dusty from sitting around. I bout this a couple years for my autistic son who just turned 16 years old. I figured he should have a vehicle that he could call his own even if he will never be able to drive it. I am a Toyota dealer and I personally have owned quite a few FJ's. I had see this one and asked him if he would like it for his birthday. He said he wanted it so I checked the FJ out and found it to be way nice so I bought it. Since he has shown no interest. I have too many vehicle's. So I am going to have to let it go. I have been an Ebayer for a number of years, buying and selling personally. I have never received any feeddack's out of 710 now then POSITIVE. That pretty much say's I call things as they are and don't Lie. Any way, back to the FJ. This FJ has 38000 miles on it and I believe it to be true, because the way the FJ looks and operates, on every way. The Fj has factory soft doors (super rare), a like new soft top with windows like new. No Haze. Lock out front hub's that function correct. Rare PTO Wench by period correct Ramsey. Steering , brakes , windows, latches, gauges,lights, signals and everything on this FJ works like new. Also looks like new. This is a chance of a life time to get a near new older FJ40 that is affordable. I have set the reserve conparablly low to other FJ's of likeness. I'm not trying to make a bunch of money on it I just don't need it. Dont let this get away. My name it Randel Carr my phone number is 1-309-269-1203 please contact me with any questions. Rolling the dies 710 times and receiveing nothing but pleased people. I don't think that was luck. I can try to aim you in the right dirrection for shipping too. Cost your responability. The wheels look white in the pic's. they are factory light gray. Please don't ask what the reserve is, that defeat the purpose of the reserve. It will piss me off and I will not tell you any way. I really don't mean to be negative. Who ever wins this FL40 will be very pleased. (((( GOOD LUCK ))))

Jeep rear-mounted fuel tank controversy
2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata named World Car of the Year
Thu, Mar 24 2016Kicking off Day Two of the New York Auto Show, the World Car of the Year awards are finally being handed out. The overall winner is, as God himself intended, the Mazda MX-5 Miata. It beat the Audi A4 and the Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class. The unique thing about these awards are that they aren't limited to the US domestic market (that's why they're called the World Car of the Year awards). For example, nominees for the overall award included the Skoda Superb, Renault Kadjar, and Subaru Levorg. In the Performance category, the forbidden fruit was repped by the Honda Civic Type R. But both the Civic and the Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe were beat out by a far more expensive competitor – the new Audi R8. The fourth-generation Toyota Prius and the second-generation Chevrolet Volt, were two of the big finalists for the World Green Car of the Year award. They both lost out, though, to the Mirai fuel-cell car. Yes, a hydrogen car beat out two of the world's premiere hybrids. The luxury race that was perhaps the hardest to predict. That's because each of the three finalists have received near universal acclaim. In the end, though, the BMW 7 Series beat out the Audi Q7 and Volvo XC90. Finally, we have the World Car Design of the Year, where the overall winner (MX-5) and the Mazda CX-3 faced off against the new Jaguar XE. While both the CX-3 and XE are handsome vehicles, the WCOTY committee realized the answer is always Miata, and awarded Mazda's iconic roadster another 2016 award.

MAZDA MX-5 - 2016 WORLD CAR OF THE YEAR NEW YORK – March 24, 2016 - For Immediate Release The Road to World Car journey ended today with the declaration of the MAZDA MX-5 as the 2016 World Car of the Year. The winner was announced during a press conference hosted by the New York International Auto Show, Bridgestone Corporation and Autoneum. 2016 marks the 10th anniversary of the partnership between World Car and the New York show, and the third consecutive year that the World Car Awards have retained their ranking as the number one automotive awards program in the world in terms of media reach. Mazda Motor Corporation is no stranger to the World Car Awards program – now in its 12th year. The Mazda2/Mazda Demio was the 2008 World Car of the Year. While the Mazda3 (2014), Mazda6 (2013) and Mazda MX-5 have all earned "Top Three in the World" status as voted by our 70 plus international automotive journalists that make up the jury.
2014 Toyota 4Runner Limited
Thu, 08 May 2014What would you say if we told you that outside of Jeep and Land Rover, the best brand for those who want to go off road is Toyota? Sounds remarkable, eh? But the truth is, Toyota's history of providing vehicles for the rougher bits of our blue marble dates back to 1950, barely a decade after Willys built the first Jeeps and only a few years after Land Rover made its big debut with the iconic Series I.
In fact, Toyota's start in off-roaders was with a small contract for providing the US Army with vehicles, during the Korean War. From that, the BJ was spawned. This Jeep-like vehicle evolved into the 20 Series and then into the iconic 40 Series Land Cruiser in the 1960s.
So yes, Toyota knows its way around the trails. While the Land Cruiser, deservedly, gets all the attention thanks to its impressive longevity, we're partial to the 4Runner, which is a far more affordable entry that serves as Toyota's challenger to the Jeep Grand Cherokee.
