Available for auction is my 1980 Toyota 4x4, which has been recently restored to a high & very original level. As you can see from the photos this truck has been disassembled extensively and rebuilt using many new and OEM parts, then painted inside and out. The reason I am selling is this restoration has obviously gotten out of hand. I now have several bills coming in from its completion, and I wish to pay them off and move on. I never intended to have the truck finished to this level, but you know how it goes "one thing leads to another" and I couldn't stop. It has just sat in my garage since being finished. Im going to break the truck down in to categories in an effort to accurately describe it, and the restoration process. --SEE LARGE PHOTOS BELOW DESCRIPTION-- -Body -I searched extensively for a rust free/unmolested truck before purchasing this one. Still had the original yellow paint and not major body flaws. Absolutely zero rust, even original paint looks like new on the floor boards both on the interior and on the underside/see photos. -The truck was disassembled for paint, glass, doors, fender, all trim, to ensure a quality finish. Door jams were refinished and new weather seals installed. -Windshield had been removed to insure no rust issues. Don't make the mistake of buying one of these unless this area has been verified to be rot free. Mine luckily looked as new "have photos if you would like" -Bed seams on both sides were taken to bare metal to insure integrity of the bed, again another important process before purchasing as most have been filled with bondo. The seams were clean, however a few pinholed areas only found on the passenger side were cut out. Two small pieces of sheet metal were professionally butt-welded in. All seams were then striped of their sealer, inspected than resealed with 3M body seam sealer. Again I have photos to email if you would like -Body was finished in single stage acrylic urethane, then wet sanded and polished to a high shine. -Decals were purchased from "James Dean Creations". These are an exact replica of the decals that were used by Toyota. They were also professional installed and look near perfect. No expense spared to finish body correctly. -Body reassembled with all new lights/housing "see photos", and complete body reassembled with all new stainless fasteners. Suspension- The suspension has been gutted and refitted with all new components. This was an expensive and time consuming process and should be considered when buying a classic Toyota. Most of the rubber bushings, seals, and knuckles have long ago been deteriorated. -Front axle removed, dismantled, and complete new knuckle kit, wheel bearings, and all seals replaced. -New Rotors, calipers, and all pads front and back replaced. New master cylinder installed at this time as well -New shocks all four corners, new poly leaf springs bushings "all 24 of them", and new tie rods -New steering stabilizer, and new fluids both axles, then finished with an alignment recently -Obviously the truck rides very well, tracks straight, and emanates no noises. -New wheels and tires. Tires are the most expensive in you can buy in this size at $950 for the set. 31x10.5 all terrain BFG's, mounted on alloy wheels. I do have original white wheels. Again not many expenses spared on the wheel/tire combo. Drive Train- Drive train is very solid, and produces no od noise, no leaks, and uses no fluids. It can be driven with great confidence. -The original 20r was said to have been remanufactured by the original owner I bought it from approx. 20K miles ago. I have removed the valve cover and oil pan to inspect. The motor was incredibly clean inside and presented as new "shiny aluminum in the head, no sludge to found". This was followed by a compression test and excellent results recorded. These can be backed by photos if you would like. -The original 4 speed was swapped in favor of a five speed. The tranny was resealed with new input/output seals, and filled with synchromesh fluid. It was purchased from a low miles truck, and shift very well with no grids or leaks. -The clutch was new, however I removed it and installed a warranted brand new clutch. There were no leaks, however I still replaced the rear main seal, surfaced flywheel, and replaced pilot bearing/throw out bearing. -Exhaust replaced using all stainless-steel components for a life time of trouble free service. Again not many expenses spared, but I did not want any issues arising with this truck. This was not cheap, but looks great and sounds like factory. -The original carb has been replaced with a much more reliable weber, and a rare offenhauser intake for better power. -Full tune up using OEM parts, engine resealed, new belts, filter, fluids. -Original manual steering was replaced with power steering system. Great improvement -Gas tank removed, boiled out, and sealed to prevent any future issues. Motor runs great, produces zero smoke, noises, and should provide the new owner with many years of reliable service. -Interior Not much to say here other than its probably the nicest and most original to be found. -Completely gutted, and any missing, damaged trim/parts replaced with OEM new when available. -The original dash had a 1/2 inch crack. This was not acceptable so a NEW, very hard to find original dash was sourced. Again I did not spare many expenses. So no worries of a dry ready to crack dash. -The carpet was also replaced with a new pre-molded kit with sound deadening mat attached. Looks like new, with factory fit. -Original AM/FM radio looks new, and works excellent. Both 4inch door speakers replaced with factory Toyota units. Sounds very good. -Door cards looks as new with no damage to found. -Windows/locks work excellent with no binding. -Original seat always had a seat cover, looks new. One small rip on drivers side about 1 inch long was found. Seat was dismantled and sent to upholstery shop for the repair, upgraded foam, and now looks new. It is an unnoticeable fix, and perfect color match. - Dash was removed to ensure all wiring was tidy, gauges checked, all lights were replaced, and all heat controls lubricated. In summary this truck is in fantastic condition and is ready to serve its new owner with many fun weekends camping, or daily driving if you desire. Although a lot of money and time was invested, this truck is not brand new and does have a couple minor flaws. These include, 2 small rock chips in glass and possibly a light scratch or two. Note I do have the original white oem Toyota wheels for the truck, and new Kobalt locking tool box, and original carb that can be included for a small additional fee. Clean title in my name, and all original manuals/tools. The reserve it set at less than half the cost to drop this off at of a restoration facility, and have completely gone through. Not to mention the cost of buying a solid truck to start with. Located in Portland Oregon. Feel free to call with questions, but do not call just to "discuss" your Toyota hobby. I only have time to talk to real buyers. Thank you (503-369-0459) NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT DUE OF $500 WITHIN 24 HOURS AUCTION CLOSE |

Toyota GT86 CS-R3 rally car presages for-sale customer racecar
Thu, 31 Jul 2014Rallying may enjoy a very strong association with all-wheel drive, but it wasn't so long ago that the World Rally Championship was populated by cars that slipped and slid across gravel and tarmac using rear-wheel drive. One of those was the Toyota Celica. While the little Celica eventually joined the gravel-spewing masses with an all-wheel-drive rally car, Toyota is returning to its rear-drive rally roots with a modified version of the critically acclaimed GT86.
Called the CS-R3, the new model boasts all the necessary changes to turn the diminutive twin of the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ into a car capable of tackling the tough, twisting paths that are so routinely conquered by the world's rally cars. That means, of course, the CS-R3 has gotten a power bump.
Expected output sits between 240 and 250 horsepower, thanks to a new racing exhaust and manifold, as well as other changes. The ECU has been replaced with an item a bit more suited to racing, while the compression ratio has also been adjusted to boost the output.
Autoblog's June 2019 Editors' Picks
Wed, Jul 10 2019Each year we review, test and rate hundreds of brand-new cars, trucks and SUVs. We rate these vehicles using the Autoblog score, giving a select few our Editors’ Pick. Here are the best cars we drove in June 2019. 2019 BMW 8 Series Everyone on the Autoblog staff loves a good grand tourer, so we were excited to get behind the wheel of the revived BMW 8 Series, specifically an M850i Coupe. A good GT needs to be as fast as it is stylish and comfortable, and the new 8 Series delivers. We particularly like the 523-horsepower twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8Â’s copious power and smooth ride quality, even on MichiganÂ’s pockmarked post-winter roads. We dig the interior design, too, though not everyone was in love with the exterior. ItÂ’s not the best-handling car in its class, and doesnÂ’t hide its sizable proportions very well, but itÂ’s still worth a look if youÂ’re looking for a big, fast cruiser. 2019 Ford Expedition Crossovers may be the hottest vehicles on the market, but thereÂ’s still a sizable demand for traditional body-on-frame SUVs like the Ford Expedition. These behemoths offer plenty of space in addition to truck-like capability. We like the Expedition's smooth ride, powerful twin-turbo V6 and sharp exterior design, though the interior can feel a bit cheap, especially on some of the more expensive trims. Adding options quickly puts it into Lincoln Navigator territory, and itÂ’s hard to recommend the Ford over the Lincoln when the latter packs the same capability into a far nicer package. Still, the Expedition is as good or better than the competition in most respects, and thatÂ’s why itÂ’s one of our picks. 2019 Toyota 86 Few cars at any price point are as much fun as the Toyota 86 (and its twin, the Subaru BRZ). We like the 86Â’s balanced chassis and sharp steering, and while itÂ’s not as nimble as its close rival the Mazda MX-5 Miata, the ToyotaÂ’s back seat and trunk make it a more usable vehicle. But while we like the 86Â’s driving position, the rest of the interior feels cheap and dated, especially the infotainment system. We complained about the anemic powertrain back in 2012, and itÂ’s only gotten worse as the years have gone by.
Toyota amalgamates motorsports divisions under Gazoo Racing
Fri, Apr 10 2015Toyota has more racing divisions than we could wave a checkered flag at, with the company's various motorsport activities all coordinated by different operations. But the Japanese industrial giant is now bringing most (if not all) of them under one roof. From here on in, any racing that was done under the Toyota Racing, Lexus Racing or Gazoo Racing banners will now be united under the latter. That includes the LFAs it races around the Nurburgring, the TS040 Hybrid it fields at Le Mans and in the World Endurance Championship, the Yaris it will soon throw at the World Rally Championship, the Lexus racers that compete in the Super GT championship back in Japan... the works. The move does not appear to affect Toyota Racing Development, the automaker's American arm that handles its NASCAR racing activities, but from here on out, any Toyota or Lexus you see racing on most anything but a speedway will be competing under Gazoo Racing. The move appears to be more than symbolic and semantic, putting its racing vehicle development, technical support and marketing activities in the hands of the new Motor Sports Group. In announcing the consolidation, Toyota highlights in particular the benefit its various racing programs bring to its talent pool, if not the direct effect they have on the company's vehicles themselves. Toyota Racing, Lexus Racing and GAZOO Racing Unite Under GAZOO Racing Toyota City, Japan, April 9, 2015-Starting April 11, Toyota will unite all motorsports activities under GAZOO Racing. The move will clarify the role of Toyota's motorsports in its efforts to make ever-better cars and foster new generations of car enthusiasts. Until now, Toyota has participated in competitions around the world-including the World Endurance Championship (WEC), the Super GT in Japan, and the Nurburgring 24 Hours endurance race-through the separate Toyota Racing, Lexus Racing and GAZOO Racing teams. Of those, GAZOO Racing in particular was created to expand the role of promoting motorsports beyond that of traditional automakers, and carry out grassroots activities aimed at creating new and ever-growing generations of car enthusiasts. Concerning today's announcement, Toyota President Akio Toyoda said: "Our founder Kiichiro Toyoda once said that motorsports are vital to the evolution of car making and the entire auto industry.
