Well I'm sure no expert on Land cruisers,  but I received this FJ-40 from an elderly man
 who has had it stored in his garage and seldom used it over the past 7 or 8 years. 

Here is what I cal tell you about it... 
It's a 1973 FJ- 40. It has its original running gear. The engine was freshened a while back by the local machine shop.(who did a great job). 
Although its mostly original, the owner did several upgrades in very good taste. It has a "Davis unilite ignition", performance manifolds, Weber carburetor, etc.

It's sure not perfect, but I believe it has always been parked in a garage. 
It's almost 100% rust free. 

It also comes with some spares (full size spare tire and wheel, skid plate, new bikini top, etc.). 
This FJ runs and drives excellent. It does not drip, smoke, rattle or do anything it shouldn't.
It also comes with half doors. 

This is a great daily driver just as it is.
This Land cruiser  is  over 40 years old and I am selling it "as -is". 


I would much rather you plan for the worst and hope for the best than be disappointed in anyway. Now... all of this having been said... I can't imagine finding a better or more un-molested FJ-40 like this for the price. 

It's not perfect, but It's not rusty like most I've seen. If I do not sell it I will save it for my grandson.
 (I know I wont find a better one down the road). 

I have a clear and open Colorado title for it.
My opening bid is $ 7,500.00 with no reserve.

I only want the buyer to be as excited as I was when it came my way.
I think that whoever ends up with it will be very pleased...Just my thoughts.


Terms of sale...
I can not ship.....  This means I can not crate, box, disassemble, or deliver to a shipping company.  I will however be more than happy to assist your shipper, however I can.


If you have zero feedback, contact me before you bid or your bid will be canceled, and you will be blocked from further bidding as well. 

A $200.00 non-refundable deposit through Pay Pal is required within 48 hours of auction's end. 

PayPal is acceptable for the deposit only.

  The balance is due via bank/certified check, or cash in person within 7 days of the auctions end.  If you are an out of the states buyer, I will gladly work with you in regards to the time and details it takes to process payment. 

Thank you

Sports 800 is a progenitor of Toyota performance

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

There's an automotive axiom that claims it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. If that's the case, then pushing a Toyota Sports 800 around must be one of the most exhilarating experiences behind the wheel in the world. With just 800cc of displacement from a two-cylinder boxer engine, the focus is on finesse over outright speed. Still, it's a fantastic page in Toyota's performance history, and Petrolicious takes a ride with a man who owns a meticulously restored 1967 example in its latest video.
The Sports 800 used the classic cost-saving strategy in the auto industry of taking parts from a standard model in the lineup and modifying it into a sports car. In this case that meant borrowing the engine from the plebian Toyota Publica, beefing it up for more power and clothing the whole thing a in beautifully shaped, wind-tunnel-honed body.
The look of these lithe, targa roadsters is the exact opposite of the rather dull styling sometimes associated with Toyota today. Everywhere you look there are louvers, vents or curves to draw the eye. Check out the latest Petrolicious video for a detailed look at the history of this rare model that's largely unknown on this side of the Pacific.

Toyota restructuring US operations, possibly moving to Texas

Sun, 27 Apr 2014

According to multiple sources familiar with the matter, Toyota is poised to announce Monday that it is restructuring its US operations, which may include plans to relocate some of its operations to Texas. Toyota Motor Sales has been located in California since 1957, and is responsible for North American sales, marketing, and distribution for Toyota, Lexus and Scion. According to Toyota literature, its Torrance operations presently employs 6,156 workers and represents a $2.3-billion investment.
Workers in Toyota's Torrance offices were abuzz about the possible relocation to Texas. One young offspring of a Toyota employee even posted to Twitter that her parents warned about the upcoming move, and she said she's refusing to go.
Rumors at one point had Toyota settling in Richardson, TX, just outside Plano. But Autoblog talked to Richardson Mayor Laura Maczka, who said she would be thrilled if that were true, but has not heard anything on the subject. Autoblog also emailed with Bill Sutherland, a city councilman in Torrance, CA, who said, "To date the only info I have is what I have read in the paper expecting a press release Monday."
