4 Sale, one of the cleanest, RUST FREE classic FJ 40's left on this planet. It is also smog exempt in the State of California and many other States due to age. This FJ was professionally RESTORED from the ground up and a Full Body off restoration was done 11,800 proven driven miles ago. FJ is garage kept and serviced top to bottom every 3,000 miles. The bottom side of this FJ looks outstanding and much nicer than most for sure = SEE PHOTOS.  Body was (off frame) when body was painted inside and out and under.= SEE PHOTOS. The frame was also detailed and all fresh rebuilt running gear installed in frame. FJ is powered by a 1968 Chevy 327 small block motor fitted with aluminum Intake - headers - elect dist - Pete Jackson Gear Drive = Gear drive not a stock timing chain so you get the hot rod wine and rumble and no timing lag, they hear you coming.  If you want it quiet put a stock timing chain back in it. Intake fitted with 4 bbl carb with electric choke. Motor dressed in chrome and stainless lines.  Motor bay and motor also detailed nice = SEE PHOTOS. Motor is mated to a newer FJ 40 - 4 speed manual transmission with the use of advance adapter. The 4 wheel drive transfer case is the good, proven Toyota factory FJ40 as well. The Rear end and Front end are both Toyota but fitted with 4.11 gears. Warn locking hubs, New HD axles - HD ring gear & pinion, HD bearings and new seals installed. New drive lines and yokes.  4 Wheels power Disc brakes installed on it and Power steering also installed to make it easy to drive on or off road. All brake lines done in stainless steel and the Tire size is 36 inch tall Super Swamper tires 12.5 wide that's over 4 feet of rubber on the ground at a cost of $340 per tire. If your going to just drive on the street full time (sell the off road super swampers) and install a set of  A/T highway tire.  A 3 inch Old Man Emu suspension lift also installed for better ground clearance and body stance. This FJ will climb a tree if needed and is fitted with a 8,000 lb Warn winch to pull your friends out that drive Jeeps and Broncos. Fj has two gas tanks so if you run out switch to the other tank and keep going. Body was installed back on frame with new body bushings and tub felts. New door rubbers installed - New window felts installed. The top and grill both finished in black to better accent the black wheels. New high back adjustable seats installed in front and factory FJ jump seats re-installed in the rear. Fj was built for off road as it should be - but also street legal and fun to drive around town for sure. People love this FJ and it will turn every head driving in it or just parked on the street. This FJ has been used on and off road over the past few years and only has been driven limited part time as a toy! It only has 11,800 driven miles on the restoration and it is kept clean. It's not a national show truck that lives on a trailer. A few minor paint chips and the norm you expect for a vehicle that is driven on and off  road. I just had paint shop air brush any paint chips or road rash it had from using it as it should be. With that said this FJ still looks outstanding overall and much nicer that any FJ you see that gets driven. SEE PHOTOS. If FJ was any nicer you would not want to drive it and get it dirty.  No big dents like most. No Rust like most of them. No floor pan patch work - No Body armor or diamond plate covering up the rust and rot like most have - dash not cut - See all Photos of Body and Bottom side - Frame - Wheel wells and so on. It speaks for itself - it's nice! Buyers more than welcome to inspect in person . I have nothing to hide,  It is what it is, and it's nicer than most for sure.  FJ has been up dated with all the good high end parts that FJ owners wish they had. I have listed 25 large photos and have also listed a video to show the FJ in greater detail that most sellers are ever willing to disclose.  Like I said I have nothing to hide (it's a nice one)  Not a rust bucket and not a project in the works = It's done and turn key ready to enjoy. The top and doors remove for open air summer fun. Fj will also be for sale outside Ebay and this listing will be removed early before the end of auction if FJ is sold out side Ebay. If listing is removed early then it has been sold. Your loss and buyers gain. So bid to own, it will sell fast - Nice RESTORED and RUST FREE FJ's always do. I have owned or restored 20 plus FJ's over the past 30 years and this one ranks at the top of the list. FJ is very Sanitary Inside and Out -Top to bottom.  Clear title to buyer when paid in full. All Factory Vin numbers and Vin plates still on FJ as they should be. The original Vin number is also still on frame as it should be. Pick up the phone and call seller direct if you would like to talk more detail about the FJ. Vehicle is garaged in Las Vegas Nevada at this time. Seller will hold vehicle in locked garage until buyer can pick up in person or have it picked up by auto transport . I have covered everything I can think of in this listing and im sure i have missed a few good things also, any questions just call me - Call 702-592-2181 anytime.  Enjoy the Photos and Video.

Australia may offer money to keep Toyota making cars there

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

In the wake of last month's announcement that Ford will cease automotive and engine production in Australia after 2016, many are wondering what the country's other automakers will do. Holden has already confirmed it will stay the course despite Ford's exit.
Much of the GM subsidiary's reason for sticking around has to do with a deal made last year between Holden and the Australian government. In order to secure a GM investment of $1 billion and a commitment to keep manufacturing in Australia through 2022, the government threw in an extra $215 million. According to Australia's Minister for Innovation and Industry, Greg Combet, the government is now in talks with Toyota for a similar deal.
Toyota operates one plant in Australia, the Altona manufacturing and engine plant in Victoria. The facility produces the Camry, Camry Hybrid and Australasia-only Aurion for both the local market and export. The report from GoAuto indicates that negotiations with the Australian government would include adding production of a third, all-new model at Altona, possibly the new RAV4, because it shares many parts with the Camry.

Scion trying to build business case for FR-S convertible as Subaru bows out

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

Hope may remain for a convertible version of the Scion FR-S, according to a report from Ward's Auto. You'll recall that rumors were swirling about the feasibility of a rear-drive Toyobaru convertible as early as October, and that back in November, Subaru - which makes the FR-S, Subaru BRZ and Toyota GT86 - essentially nixed the idea of an open-topped variant.
"We make the car, so if we don't make it, it can't happen," brand chief Yasuyuki Yoshinaga told Automotive News, according to Ward's, at the Tokyo Motor Show. "Our engineering department told me that losing the entire roof requires a complete redesign of the structure. It would need a big change."
Despite Yoshinaga-san's arguments against a droptop variant, Toyota is apparently still considering the model. Speaking to media at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, Scion's US vice president, Doug Murtha, hinted that the rear-drive droptop was in the works.

Mazda3 sales off to rocky start despite massive critical acclaim

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

Like just about every other auto publication we've seen, we loved the way the Mazda3 drove when we reviewed it a few months ago, but those glowing reviews apparently aren't helping its sales. The new compact may be falling victim to a sales war between the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic, with the newcomer getting squeezed out by those with more established names and bigger marketing budgets.
According to Automotive News, Mazda3 sales have fallen every month since last August, and its sales are down 27 percent in the first two months of 2014. It certainly isn't helping that the entire compact segment is down five percent this year as well.
The biggest problem for the new model seems to be its price compared to rivals. Mazda is not offering the incentives that are on the hood of competitors. With the previous generation, the company offered more than $2,700 on the hood to move them out, but the current model only carries about $1,233 in markdowns, according to AN.
