1971 Toyota FJ 40 Landcruiser. I bought this FJ40 1 1/2 years ago when I lived in California but things changed and I never ended up using it.  I ended up having to retire and moving to Arizona. I trailered it to Arizona and it’s been in my garage ever since.

This cruiser was professionally built from the frame up. Here’s a list of all the work that has been done to it.

1991 Chevrolet 5.0 fuel injected engine

Chevrolet 4 speed transmission

Aftermarket twin shift transfer case (I can’t remember the brand)

Power steering

Electric cooling fan

Spring over conversion

35” tires 85% tread left

 I think the front axle is from a Toyota truck but I’m not positive.

Rancho RS9000XL adjustable shocks all around

Front disc brakes

Adjustable proportioning valve on the master cylinder

Hunsaker seats. The driver's side seat adjuster is broken. The seat does not adjust.

Corbeau 3 point harnesses

JVC stereo cd player with amplifier 

Custom speaker box

Full roll cage

Locking Tuffy center console box with cup holders

Lots of stainless steel allen bolts

Optima battery 

I’m sure that I am missing a lot of other things but you get the idea. The truck starts right up and runs great. It doesn’t smoke and there are no leaks. It needs nothing. This truck was done right. Drive any other V8 Fj40 conversion and then drive this one. It doesn’t wander and goes down the road straight and true.

The paint has some flaking and the passenger side front fender is in rough shape. It looks like it had some really bad body work and then was painted black. There is a small rust spot above the rear drivers side fender. There is some surface rust here and there but that’s it. Look at the photos. The frame is rust free. Even the usual FJ40 rust spots have no rust. The rear corners under the diamond plate, the rear tailgate doors, the area below the tailgates, and the floors are rust free.

All gauges work except for the oil pressure gauge, the odometer, and the speedometer. Everything else works. Lights, horn wipers, heater, etc. all work. 

There is no top or doors included!

I have tried to describe this vehicle as accurately as possible.  However, it is over 40 years old and is sold as is and doesn’t come with any warranty of any kind. 

It has always been garaged, never left outside. The registration is current and I have the clear Arizona title for it. The FJ40 is located in Western Arizona. I will gladly answer any questions but please read the entire ad first. if I don’t get back to you in a few days then the answer to your question is in the description. I cannot ship but I will help with shipping at your cost in any way I can. Please do not bid if you can't pay. All non-paying bidders will be reported to E-Bay. Sold to citizens of the United States only – no exceptions.  A non refundable PayPal deposit of $1000.00 is due within 24 hours of the end of the auction, with the remaining due in 7 days. I will not release the truck until I have the entire payment, no exceptions. I will not accept trades so please don't ask. I accept Paypal or cash only!! Good luck!

Toyota TRD Pro lineup coming next week

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

A mysterious Toyota commercial recently popped up on YouTube teasing a new TRD Pro lineup for the Tundra, Tacoma and 4Runner, and now we're getting our first official word straight from the automaker on the matter. Courtesy of its Facebook page, Toyota is promising that the TRD Pro models will be introduced on February 6th, ready to "conquer the great outdoors."
This date just so happens to mark the first day of the always-truck-friendly Chicago Auto Show, so while Toyota isn't saying as much, we're almost certain the trucks will show up next week in the Windy City. It's not clear what sort of upgrades TRD Pro brings, but it definitely includes black wheels and a tweaked front end featuring a thick, single-bar grille and bold lettering in place of the stylized Toyota logo (shown above on the Tundra).
Scroll down to see the video, and head over to Toyota's Facebook page to see a teaser image of the 4Runner TRD Pro.

2014 Toyota 4Runner revealed at Stagecoach Music Festival

Sat, 27 Apr 2013

Toyota has just pulled the sheet off its updated 2014 4Runner at the 2013 Stagecoach Music Festival near Palm Springs, California. Toyota is the title sponsor at the festival, and claims that this is the first ever global reveal of a new automobile at a major music festival. We're also guessing this is the first time that the 4Runner has seen duty inside what looks like a vintage circus act's cage.
We can see from the photos (and the earlier teaser images) that the body-on-frame SUV has received a freshened look with new smoked light fixtures front and rear, along with a reworked front fascia and grille. The profile view seems largely unchanged, though there are new wheel patterns on offer.
The 4Runner will continue to be offered in three trims, including SR5, more luxurious Limited, and off-road-ready Trail specification. Both 4x2 and both part- and full-time 4x4 models will continue to be available, all will be powered by the same 4.0-liter 270-horsepower V6 and five-speed automatic as last year.

Toyota recalling 342k Tacomas due to faulty seatbelt pretensioners

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

Toyota is voluntarily recalling 342,000 Tacoma Access Cab pickups, produced between 2004 and 2011. The wide-ranging recall is due to faults in the screws that attach the belt pre-tensioner to the belt retractor. There are concerns that the screws can loosen themselves over time, especially if the access door is opened and closed with too much force. It's important to note that the recall only covers the driver and front passenger seat, and is limited to just the Access Cab trucks. Other body styles aren't affected.
If the screws come loose, the pre-tensioner and retractor spring could separate from the belt entirely, which would be bad news in a crash. There's no mention of injuries or accidents due to the faulty pre-tensioners. Owners affected by the recall will be notified soon, and asked to come in for recall service.
