TLC Stage Three Restored FJ's are the best in the world. In short, it involves a complete tear down and rebuild... leaving no stone unturned. We focus on quality OEM Toyota parts. Body is media blasted to raw metal then repainted using top quality materials. Before reassembly, the body is polyurea coated on the bottom of the tub and fenders, and on the inside floor surfaces. Inside of doors coated in Dynamat. All OEM hardware re-plated in factory finishes, exterior hardware upgraded to stainless steel. Nylon washers applied anywhere you may one day remove a panel, to protect the finishes. Chassis and all trim components are all media blasted to raw metal then powder coated (including rims, bumpers, mirror arms, roll bar, interior trim…). OEM seating restored with new foam, stock stay straps and improved marine quality vinyl. Fully rebuilt or new transmission, transfer case, differentials, steering system, exhaust, intake, suspension, fuel system, all clutch system parts and more. This FJ is perhaps the finest anywhere. Restored as delivered new back in 77, with the exception of LED lighting and improved suspension and 33" tires. Runs and drives as you would expect. A Cruiser of the highest quality, no excuses. An exceptional investment.

This Cruiser was rebuilt by one of the oldest and most respected Land Cruiser experts, TLC4x4. Look into our reputation if you are not familiar with our work. We have restored more FJ40's than anyone, with a consistent focus on quality. Our Cruisers are with happy owners all over the world. This particular FJ40 has been in Southern Ca since new. First owned by the father then the son, then we scored it. Rust free and unaltered. Numbers match. Note that classic Land Cruisers have been bringing six digits at auction lately. We have been restoring and selling them for years, long before they became "the hot thing". If you look closely at the ones selling at the auctions, they are restored with aftermarket parts without an expert eye on authenticity. By from the best, TLC, and rest assured you are getting only the best. Thanks for viewing.

Scion trying to build business case for FR-S convertible as Subaru bows out

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

Hope may remain for a convertible version of the Scion FR-S, according to a report from Ward's Auto. You'll recall that rumors were swirling about the feasibility of a rear-drive Toyobaru convertible as early as October, and that back in November, Subaru - which makes the FR-S, Subaru BRZ and Toyota GT86 - essentially nixed the idea of an open-topped variant.
"We make the car, so if we don't make it, it can't happen," brand chief Yasuyuki Yoshinaga told Automotive News, according to Ward's, at the Tokyo Motor Show. "Our engineering department told me that losing the entire roof requires a complete redesign of the structure. It would need a big change."
Despite Yoshinaga-san's arguments against a droptop variant, Toyota is apparently still considering the model. Speaking to media at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, Scion's US vice president, Doug Murtha, hinted that the rear-drive droptop was in the works.

Cosworth announces Power Packages for Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S with up to 380 hp [w/video]

Sat, 31 May 2014

Cosworth stands on the list of the most famous engine tuners in the world with its DFV engine engine dominating Formula One for a time in the '70s. So when it teases plans to take on the FA20 engine from Subaru and Toyota found in the BRZ, Scion FR-S and Toyota GT86 abroad, our interest is indeed piqued. Cosworth is promising to take the 2.0-liter, four-cylinder boxer engine from its current 200 horsepower all the way to 325 hp and even 380 hp in a future track version through a series of staged Power Packages. At the moment, only the first stage is available that takes the mill to a potent 230 hp.
Cosworth says that its new strategy is to offer its upgrades in kits rather than individually so that it can be sure that everything works and fits when owners receive it. The Stage 1 Power Package emphasizes helping the FA20 breathe better and includes a nearly complete replacement for the stock exhaust system. There is a sports exhaust with four-inch, diagonally cut, polished tips and Y-shaped muffler, an overpipe front pipe with a spherical resonator and a new manifold header that is 22 percent lighter the standard unit. In addition to that, the kit comes with a software reflash, low temperature thermostat, Cosworth badge and plaque.
The stage one kit is available now, and stages two and three go on sale later this summer, according to its website. Autoblog contacted Cosworth for pricing information for the kits. We will update this story, if we hear back. The company also released a video showing off the exhaust upgrades. Scroll down to watch it and read the full release, below.

Fewest vehicles ever found eligible for Most American survey

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Once again, the most American car on the market is from an American brand. The Ford F-150 retained its number one spot in Cars.com's annual survey of the most American vehicles, trumping the Toyota Camry, which remains at number two.
Ford taking the top spot is small consolation, though, as the Detroit Three aren't too well represented here. General Motors scored a win at number seven, with the Chevrolet Corvette, while Chrysler squeaked in at number ten, with the Dodge Viper. Outside of those three vehicles, Toyota and Honda dominate the top ten.
What's most remarkable, though, is that there were so few cars available for this year's list.
