1993 Toyota Land Cruiser Series 80 with Diff Lockers
I bought this Land Cruiser for my personal
project. I had been dreaming of one of
these Cruisers for a long time. Most all
I looked like they have had a very hard life with little service or care. Over
the years I must have looked at 50 Cruisers before I found this one. What struck me about this particular Land
Cruiser is that it was all original paint, Zero rust, all stock and not
modified. Plus the Grey interior color
is much better than the Tan that a lot of Pure White Land Cruisers had. When I test drove this one I knew this would
be the best one for my new driver. I was
really looking for a well-serviced vehicle, so I was happy to see that it had
several receipts in the glove box plus all the original owners manuals. You can always tell a vehicle was cared for
by the tires, this one has Michelin All Terrain LTX M/S, even including a brand
new one as a spare. So after I bought
it is when I got a little carried away.
I did a full service with new plugs, cap, rotor and wires. I also changed the fluids. It had a small hesitation, which I found was
the TPS sensor, so it was also changed.
Air conditioning is very important to me, while it worked most of the
time, I found it had a bad Evaporator valve, so that was changed, as well with
the dryer for safe bets. So now it will
freeze you out on a hot day. The seats
where in good conditioning, but I am a sucker for new car smell, so I had all
the seat leather replaced including the jump seats in the back to new
leather. Like I said I got carried
away… Only other item was a bad antenna
mast, which I found needed a complete power antenna assembly. I bought the factory original from Toyota and
had in installed. Everything on the Land
Cruiser works perfectly. All door locks,
windows, moon roof, heat, ac, 4wd, everything! Driving
this Land Cruiser is a joy. No rattles
or clucks going down the road. Great power
from the bullet proof 24 Valve 4.5 inline six cylinders, code named
1FZ-FE. 1993 was the first year for the
high Pinion Electric Locking Differentials, and the got larger brakes over the
earlier ones. It is a very comfortable SUV that seats 7 with
the removable rear seats. I can only fault the vehicle in two places, on
the pass rear door there is a very small tear in the vinyl, a small dent in the
rear bumper above the hitch, like they backed into a trailer. I am very picky about my vehicles, plus I
have a very short attention span when it comes to keeping cars or trucks. Probably why I am a car dealer. I think I actually like the dream and hunt
more than ownership. So it time for
someone to benefit from my obsessiveness and get a great Land Cruiser Series 80

Leaked Toyota FT-86 Open concept images preview droptop Scion FR-S [w/video]
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Here it is, folks - the highly anticipated Toyota FT-86 Open concept, a precursor to what could become a road-going Scion FR-S convertible. A full smattering of images and video have leaked onto the internet, and thanks to the folks at FT86Club.com, we can now see the new hotness that Toyota will be unveiling at the Geneva Motor Show next week.
These images confirm details that were first seen in spy shots captured a couple of weeks ago - namely, the larger wheel/tire package and the inclusion of the Toyobaru coupe's decidedly useless rear seats. These new photos, however, show a two-tone leather interior with goodies such as an iPod/iPhone mount on the dashboard. The concept car is also fitted with the coupe's six-speed automatic transmission (boo!) and FT86Club.com reports that the folding soft top is operated electronically.
We'll have the full details live from Geneva in just a few days. For now, click through our attached image gallery to see lots of pretty pictures of the topless wonder, and scroll down for a video to see the concept in motion.
Toyota GT86 gets TRD treatment in UK
Fri, 08 Feb 2013As dearly as we love the Toyota GT86 / Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ franchise, we readily admit we wouldn't look sideways at a model with a bit more firepower. And while that's not quite on the table yet, Toyota has been busy amping up the visual firepower of its rear-drive coupe with a whole host of TRD parts. To this point, that's been a largely à la carte affair, but the automaker's UK outpost has just announced a special-edition model that allows our British friends to pick up the whole shooting match all in one go.
The Toyota GT86 TRD will only be available in black and white, and just 250 examples are to be built. As you can see from the excellent gallery above, the catalog of look-faster bits include a more aggressive front air dam, side skirts, rear bumper fascia, spoiler and unique 18-inch forged alloys. Additional flourishes include a TRD shift lever and branded radiator cap. The sole concession to actual performance? A "fast-response quad exhaust" that might only improve things audibly - 0-62 mph is apparently unchanged at 7.7 seconds, and the top end is still 140 mph for the manual transmission model. (The auto gets by with 8.4 seconds and 130 mph).
Pricing? Glad you asked. £31,495 for GT 86 TRD manual, £32,995 for the automatic - that's nearly $50,000 US for the tripedalist and just over for the automatic. (Those are heady prices, but bear in mind that UK MSRPs and taxes are generally significantly higher than their US counterparts). If the standard GT86 is more your speed, it still rings up at a more affordable £24,995 - roughly $39,500 - leaving plenty of budget for actual performance parts. No word yet on North American availability of a special TRD model, but we've got a call in...
Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k
Wed, 07 Nov 2012Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.
