1974 Toyota Land Cruiser Fj-40 on 2040-cars
Bowie, Maryland, United States
I am always available by mail at: josefjpprocknow@ukpoets.net .
A Stunning and rare 1974 & ½, the Coolest FJ-40 year ever with the added stock 4 speed trans (3 speed in prior
years) and the remaining Hatchback rear doors (went to the dual ambulance doors with no open while driving ability
in 1975)! I had a professional Major Renovation Frame-Off, New Replacement Full Tub…done and completed 2005/6 by
Iron Pig of VA. Easily $60K invested! All painted Factory KTM Orange as individual parts at time of restoration by
Iron Pig’s preferred painter! A True Beauty who drives as good as she looks! Since all is almost better than
perfect I will list what is missing or in complete: One paint spot on hood showing signs of a potential to chip
(see pic). Original switches could be upgraded for greater beauty… No stereo, missing rear seats (I have a nice
pair of full size units with a special brackets to fit outside of the roll bar but at an added cost of $750 beyond
sale price). Rear heater missing (I have one but not that attractive but can be purchased separately if
interested), vent hose to windshield air defrost missing. Skid plate missing. Just had an issue with the blinkers
and hazard not working consistently (I will replace control unit as needed to have working) all other lights,
wipers work great! No windshield sprayer installed, available for under $50.00. Stock engine with maybe original
miles all checks out and runs good! (I was going to but a LT1 fuel injected in next…) All 4 wheel drive functions
work great, locking hubs, trans smooth will do 70mph. I have a video showing drive, climbing, braking and speed I
can send you! Power steering works great (a must feature!). Full tire tread life from new (maybe 2500mi on them)
Would prefer to have interested buyer come and drive her in person prior to buying… I have bought almost a dozen
vehicle w/o driving and have had some great luck but if possible come on over and take her for a ride! Front wheel
disk brakes stops amazing, parking brake great too! Great seals all around, no leaks. Windows a bit stiff to
operate but with all new parts and seals (unfortunately the front small vent windows do not open due to the
position of custom roll cage). Custom bucket seats with a Tuffy center console with all kinds of storage. Stock
under driver seat full size storage compartment. Many, many top quality parts and on going maintenance invested in
this very tough beauty! As with the sale of all older vehicles this is a no warranty transaction but I will be glad
to send with all previous work documentation and help with all questions! Be glad to assist with setting up for
your pick-up in person or with a delivery service as well. I will continue to add info as this listing moves
forward.

Ford only automaker to make 2012 Buzz Rankings, Toyota most improved
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Ford landed itself a spot among the top 10 brands in the 2012 Buzz Rankings. The annual index scores 1,100 brands in 41 categories to determine which nameplates had the most positive buzz throughout the year.
For the third year in a row, Subway took the top honors overall with a score of 40.3, and Ford was the only automaker to break into the top 25 by earning a sixth-place finish overall. The manufacturer earned a score of 32.1 points, which was enough to push it up one spot from the 2011 Buzz Rankings. Honda managed 21.2 points overall, which is still well behind 25th-place Kohl's at 26.5 points. Toyota, Volkswagen and BMW all round out the top five automakers.
The 2012 Buzz Rankings also keep track of which brands improved the most over the past year, and this year, Toyota was the manufacturer with the largest leap forward. The Japanese automaker jumped from just 14 points in 2011 to 20.5 in 2012. Chrysler, Kia, Dodge and Volkswagen all saw sizable steps forward as well. Be sure to head over to the Brand Index site for more information.
2014 Toyota Corolla coming Thursday, now with LED headlamps
Tue, 04 Jun 2013Here's what we know about the redesigned 2014 Toyota Corolla: It will have "aggressive new styling" with "available seventeen-inch alloy wheels" an "available touch screen audio" system and "available LED headlights."
We know all of this because Toyota has seen fit to release a small assortment of teaser images of the 2014 Corolla, with those descriptions attached. The latest to hit the web shows LED lighting clusters, which, to Toyota's credit, don't appear to merely mimic designs already seen in the automotive world.
We should point out that the headlights do share a link to the units seen on the Furia Concept that was supposed to foreshadow the next Corolla, though the most interesting bits - namely the honeycomb inner pattern - have been chucked while the somewhat trapezoidal main units remain intact.
Toyota mints 10-millionth vehicle in Kentucky
Fri, 30 May 2014In 26 years, from 1988 up to now, the Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky plant in Georgetown has built ten million vehicles - nearly enough for every citizen of Seoul, Korea or the nation of Hungary. The first car to roll off the line back when the claymation California Raisins were singing old Marvin Gaye hits and everybody wanted to know Who Framed Roger Rabbit? was a white Camry. The ten-millionth car to roll off the line among the Avalons and Venzas also produced there: a white Camry Hybrid.
Toyota has put $5.9 billion into the site since its inception, employment is up to 7,000 associates and will grow when Lexus ES350 assembly begins next year. Whereas car number one is a showpiece for the ages, one of the automaker's current associates will get to win the ten-millionth car in a blind drawing to be held this summer.
There's a press release below with more information on the impressive milestone.
