 1968 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER FJ40 / All Original BARN FIND / Clean / NOTHING Rusted Through / PTO WINCH / Original Paint +

 Original owner bought new from Roseburg Oregon dealership (see documents) in 1968.  It was then sold to son-in-law who drove it into his barn in 1991 & that is where it stayed for the last 23 years.  Son-in-law claims that the odometer has NOT flipped, but I obviously can't guarantee that?  The bumpers are banged up from moving it around in the barn over the years by pushing it with a tractor.  Since being pulled from barn all that has been done to it is exterior soap & water wash & interior clean up/critter removal.  Decided to sell as a non-runner when I noticed that the rats had done some electrical work. Noticed some chewed wires on engine side of firewall & some more back by fuel tank.  I did not notice any chewed up interior wires.  Engine turns over fine with a jumper on the starter so shouldn't be too tough to get going, I just don't have the time & it's really not my thing.  This truck still has a headliner, original seats (driver's side recovered @ some point), PTO winch, under seat tool tote (incomplete), partial owners manual (rats), jack, service booklet, some chains, extra wiper arm under seat, hitch ball, original keys, etc.  I am not an FJ nut personally, so I'm there will be questions, and feel free to email with them.  I'll do my best to get them answered right away.  Thanks for looking & please only bid if you intend to buy.  I can assist with shipping anywhere within the U.S. and some locations overseas.  But, please make arrangements and try to have that part figured out before buying.

****Note:  I ask that nobody bids on my listing for entertainment purposes.  If you end up winning this auction & do not follow through with transaction I will expect some compensation for wasting my time.  If you do not intend to pay compensation due to failure of completing transaction I can assure you that you will be impressed with the efforts that are made to collect.  In other words, bidding is for buyers.****

European car sales up 8% in February

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.

Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"

Mon, 03 Dec 2012

The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.

Weekly Recap: Things you might not know about the 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger Hellcats

Sat, 16 Aug 2014

If you're an enthusiast, and you don't know that Dodge spawned another Hellcat this week, you really must have been living in cave. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat is probably the biggest news for enthusiasts since the reveal of, well the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
But, there are some things you might not know or might have missed about the new Charger and Challenger Hellcats. For starters, reports that the Hellcat production would be limited to a low volume are not true.
"We have not capped the Hellcat on either the Challenger or the Charger," Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis said.
