Up for sale is my baby. 1980 Toyota HJ45 Diesel Pickup that is ready for you to fly into town and drive it home.
This truck is Ready for a car show or Armageddon. For me she has been living the easy life. Driving around town
for lunch a few trips camping and the occasional car show.
Mechanically Here's a short list of things that have been done.
New Old man EMU suspension Front and Rear
New ARB Compressor With Front and Rear Differential lockers
The Rear Axle is floating HD axle which is Very rare to find on these truck. This axle was completely disassembled
and new bearings seals and shafts where installed.
The Front Axle had the same work done as the rear completely disassembled and all worn parts replaced including 4
wheel drive hubs.
The Power Brakes are all new including the master cylinder. It has Disk in the Front and drum in the rear.
The 16 inch Rims are one off custom built to give the rim the 16 inch split rim original look but with much better
performance.
The Rims are Fitted with New BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2
The Headlights are upgraded to halogen lamps with a vintage lamp assembly to give the truck a more authentic look
but high light performance.
The Stereo system is a New Custom Vintage hidden system that fits the vintage look of the interior with modern
features.
The switch panel is configured to control the ARB Compressor and Front and Rear Locker, Led Dome lights, fog lights
and Winch in/out
The heater System is a Vintage Air heater with billet controls. The controller runs defrost and floor heat very
well.
The body is in great condition. I had it painted a year ago and at that time all the Door seals, window rubber
gaskets and window felt was replaced. All emblems where replaced with NOS one that I found available. The doors
close with no problems. The main problem for me with it is the fit and finish is maybe a little to good for a off
road truck like this and makes me nervous to take her into the woods.
If you look close at this truck you'll find little details like the side mirrors I made those custom to fit the
modern doors with the vintage looking round style.
The Interior seats and door panels are in great condition no tears or excessive wear. Very clean.
The engine runs exactly as it should. I never have had a starting problem and drove this truck over 300 miles in
one day many of times. It gets regular oil changes and is pampered.
This truck will be a great truck for its next owner. If you want something that not going to be a bunch of
surprisses this is the truck for you. The mechanical is in order. As all 40 year old trucks there will be items
that could be addressed but this one is a really strong driver that will show and impress.
Thanks for looking.

Toyota FCV Concept comes one step closer to reality
Wed, 20 Nov 2013When Toyota first conceptualized a gasoline-electric hybrid vehicle for mainstream Americans to drive, the initial response was pretty skeptical. Still, through relentless engineering and solid product after solid product, Toyota has built the Prius brand into the dominant force in the hybrid car market.
Something like that plan of attack is what the Japanese company is preparing for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, as well, and that attack is seeing a critical salvo fired today with the debut of this FCV Concept at the Tokyo Motor Show.
Though there's nothing substantive to be said about rumors of a 300-mile range or a sticker price around $50,000, the FCV concept does offer a few technical details. The sharp-beaked concept makes use of two high-pressure hydrogen tanks and boasts a power output density of three kilowatts per liter.
Toyota says you might have the 40-millionth Corolla ever built
Sat, 07 Sep 2013The guy who bought the 50-millionth Toyota in the US got a free Camry and RAV4, but whoever in the world bought the 40-millionth Corolla in August gets a hearty "thank you" from the Japanese automaker. On sale since 1966, the Corolla is the best-selling nameplate in the world by a goodly margin (more than the Volkswagen Beetle and Ford Model T combined). So while you'd think that vehicle number 40 million would be sitting in a museum somewhere, Toyota can't even say in which country this milestone Corolla was sold, let alone to which customer.
One reason that Toyota is unsure where this Corolla was sold is the fact that the Corolla name itself is more than just the compact sedan sold in the US. On our shores alone, sales of the Matrix are lumped in with the Corolla, but around the world, numerous vehicles wear the Corolla name or share its platform. Scroll down for Toyota's press release, and it has also put together a website celebrating 47 years and 40 million sales for the Corolla... and counting.
Toyota recalling 1.9M Prius models globally for software update
Wed, 12 Feb 2014Toyota has announced a set of voluntary recalls covering 960,000 Prius, RAV4, Tacoma and Lexus RX350 models in the United States to address two separate issues. Worldwide, Toyota will have to recall a total of 1.9 million Prius cars.
The Prius recall affects about 700,000 2010-2014 models in the US, due to a fault in the motor/generator control ECU and hybrid control ECU software. It says that the current software could result in high temperatures on certain transistors and possibly damage them. When it fails, the error forces the car into failsafe mode. Toyota says that in rare circumstances, it could even shut the hybrid system down while the car is being driven.
Toyota spokeswoman Shino Yamada told Automotive News that the software update should take about 40 minutes, and dealers would start to be notified about affected vehicles today. She also told them that the first reported glitch occurred in May 2011 in the US when the system overheated and the car entered failsafe mode. The affected cars were built between March 2009 and Feb. 5, 2014, according to Automotive News. Toyota says that it has received no reports of accidents or injuries caused by either fault.
