Rare Classic 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser Fj40 on 2040-cars
San Marcos, Texas, United States
Up for auction is a great 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. This
truck was originally a California truck.
I bought this truck a while back with the plan to keep it and restore it
little by little, but life gets in the way, and now I have to sell her. This truck is a 90% original and is 95% rust free!
As you can see from the pictures, she is in great shape and has not had any
body panels cut and has all of the factory original glass The odometer reads 295,961 miles, but the
motor went through a complete factory rebuild by the previous owner a few years
ago and runs strong! The FJ40 retains all of the factory smog/emissions
equipment and is 100% emissions compliant.
She has a 4 in. Suspension Lift and (5) brand new 33x10.50 BFG KM2
tires. The truck was recently aligned
when I installed new tires and drives & tracks strait as an arrow. The interior of the truck is > 90% original with the
original factory headliner and dome light still intact. All seats and interior
door panels have been recently re-upholstered and are in great shape. There are
absolutely no electrical issues and the truck could easily be used as a daily
driver as is. However, with very minimal work, the truck could be taken from a
survivor to a full blown reservation. As
I have replaced parts, I have installed OEM factory Toyota replacement parts when
available and a few top qualities Aftermarket parts when OEM was not
available. List of parts is too long to
put on here, but if you have questions please don’t hesitate to contact me. Additionally, I still have all of the original
stock parts that were replaced with aftermarket parts (bumper, suspension,
etc.) that you are welcome to take if you buy the truck. Shipping: I am happy to help arrange and coordinate shipping within
the continental 48 United States. Shipping will be at winning bidders cost. Payment: The winning bidder is required to pay $1,000
non-refundable deposit within 24 hours of winning the auction. Remainder of
payment due within 7 days of auction end. Vehicle will not be released to
winning bidder until funds have been received and cleared any banking holds. Contact Info: Please contact me with any questions that you have prior
to bidding. My email address is: rdk08@yahoo.com I have this vehicle listed locally as well and reserve
the right to end the auction early if purchased through an alternate means. |

Toyota nearing $1B settlement of unintended acceleration criminal probe
Sun, 09 Feb 2014According to those all-too-nebulous "people familiar with the matter," Toyota is close to a settlement with the US federal government to end a criminal probe over its long-running unintended acceleration fiasco. Though Toyota has never admitted guilt, the deal could reportedly crest a billion dollars and would likely include a criminal deferred prosecution agreement, and while we're not legal experts, The Wall Street Journal explains that such a deal would "[force Toyota] to accept responsibility while avoiding the potentially crippling consequences of federal criminal convictions."
The report from WSJ also suggests that Toyota is facing charges that it "made false or incomplete disclosures" to various government agencies regarding possible defects to its cars. Such charges may include mail and wire fraud violations. Toyota has already paid out fines totaling $66.2 million to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration because it failed to report safety defects in a timely manner.
This deal with the federal government is not related to the billion-dollar class-action settlement reached with Toyota owners over falling vehicle values, and it's also different from the roughly 400 lawsuits still in courts alleging personal injury of wrongful death due to cases of unintended acceleration. In other words, don't expect to hear the end of such courtroom verdicts and settlements anytime soon...
Toyota investing $200M in Southern manufacturing
Sun, 23 Jun 2013Over the past two years, Toyota has invested more than $2 billion at its North American production facilities, and it apparently doesn't plan on stopping there. To keep up with recent strong sales, Toyota is investing an additional $200 million at its engine plants in the Southern US to increase production capacity of its V6 engines.
The bulk of this money ($150 million) will go to expand Toyota's engine plant in Huntsville, AL, which is currently responsible for supplying engines - four-cylinder, V6 and V8 - to eight of Toyota's 12 domestically produced vehicles. That includes the best-selling Toyota Camry (shown above).
Toyota didn't say exactly what improvements are being made to the plant, but this follows last year's $80 million investment in the plant that is set to be completed by next year raising the engine capacity to 750,000 annual units including 362,000 V6s. The remaining $50 million will go to the casting plants of Toyota-owned Bodine Aluminum in Missouri and Tennessee, which supply engine blocks and cylinder heads to the Huntsville engine plant as well as others in Kentucky and West Virginia.

Spongebob Squarepants Toyota Highlander gets Tanked in Vegas
Thu, 07 Nov 2013In 2006, I bought a Scion xB (the super upright, first-generation one), and I always had this wild dream of turning the xBox into an aquarium after it had run its course in my personal test fleet. Long story short, that never happened. But apparently the folks at Toyota got wind of my idea - only, well, this isn't exactly what I had in mind.
Let's just start at the beginning here. This is a 2014 Toyota Highlander - you know, the redesigned one that bowed in New York earlier this year. I haven't driven it yet, but I'm sure it's plenty nice and will appeal to all sorts of families. Families with kids. Kids who like cartoons. Cartoons like Spongebob Squarepants.
Which brings me to our next talking point: the collaboration between Toyota and Nickelodeon for the Spongebob-themed wrap that covers every inch of this Highlander. This isn't the first time we've seen the yellow cartoon sponge on a Highlander - Toyota unveiled a differently wrapped version earlier this year - but this one features more of an aquatic, under-the-sea sort of theme. Perfect, considering the main point of this crossover's reason for being at SEMA.
