I am attempting to sell my fj40 in hopes to be able to purchase another style land cruiser. I have documented the refresh pretty well over the last two years on Ih8mud. com. The build isnt perfect and there is room to grow of course. I did not upgrade the steering from manual to power nor the brakes from drums to disc. The paint is not car show quality but it does get many compliments even up close. I did not rebuild the motor because the PO who also owns an FJ40 stated that it had been recently rebuilt. It is a 2F motor which is not original to the vehicle but seems to be a common upgrade. I had the compression checked earlier in the summer and the numbers looked good. If you would like a compression check please let me know. I will try to get down to the local shop to have them do a check this week. The mileage is unknown as the PO did not know the mileage . I was eventually going to do a 3FE upgrade. All of the rust was cut out, the rocker panels, quarter panels, and rear sill were replaced by a local friend. The paint job was done by Demention's Body Shop on the south side of San Antonio. Once again it is not the best nor is it oem. It is actually a Chrysler code which is in the receipts but it is the new Jeep Sahara Tan color code. The shop applied POR 15 to the bottom of the tub and in the wells on the fender and rear quarter panels. I applied Rust Bullet to the frame while the body was off having rocker panels, rear sill, and quarter panels replaced. Also the brake lines and clutch lines were replaced. The speedometer cable has been matched for the autometer gauge but does not currently work because of where it attaches to the transfer case. I also just put a new alt and voltage regulator on this week. Once again the vehicle is ready to be enjoyed. The vehicle has a clear Colorado Title but is located in San Antonio, Texas due to moving and not registering it here in Texas yet. The vehicle will come with all parts that remain are in my garage which is quite a bit of stuff. The vin# is FJ40137489 if you would like to check it out. I never have so I honestly do not know what is on there, but want to be open. Once again please ask questions if you have one. Just some of the stuff that I could think of and through one file of receipts just to give an idea of what I have spent so far.

Ford F-150 bumps Camry from top of Cars.com American Made Index
Tue, 25 Jun 2013With July 4th just around the corner, what better time could there be for Cars.com to announce that the Ford F-150 is the Most American car of 2013? This may be especially true since it was the Toyota Camry, a car produced by a company based in Japan, that had held the top spot from 2009 to 2012.
Cars.com compiles its Most American list by considering the amount of parts each vehicle uses that come from America, where it's final assembly takes place and how many units per year are sold. "While the assembly point and domestic parts content of the F-150 didn't change from 2012-2013, vehicle sales are responsible for bumping the F-150 to the top spot," according to Patrick Olsen, Editor-in-Chief of Cars.com.
As far as automakers go (as opposed to individual models), Toyota retains the top spot it held in 2012, with General Motors, Chrysler, Ford and Honda (in that order) rounding out the list. The motivation behind this list each year, according to Olsen, is "to help car shoppers understand that 'American-Made' extends beyond just the Detroit three" and because "a study we conducted in 2012 indicated that 25 percent of shoppers surveyed preferred to buy American."
Redesigned 2014 Toyota Tundra spied testing in Canada
Tue, 29 Jan 2013When Toyota first announced that it would be bringing the 2014 Tundra pickup to next month's Chicago Auto Show, we weren't quite sure if the truck would fall into the "all-new" or "refreshed" category. After seeing this latest set of spy shots, we're striking "all-new" from the record, but the enhancements do appear to be more than just a simple nip/tuck.
While the overall shape and greenhouse haven't really changed, heavy cladding found on the front fascia suggests that a totally redesigned nose is in store, with a fully reworked grille flanked by new headlamps. Smaller styling details are hidden by the big panels of camouflage, but we anticipate a few minor tweaks to the rest of the pickup's design when all that black tape finally comes off.
Mum's the word on powertrain enhancements (if any), as well as any changes that have been made to the chassis. But with the updated 2013 Ram 1500 already on the street, the recent unveiling of the updated 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins, and a preview of what's to come from the likes of Ford, we certainly hope Toyota has injected enough new blood into its 2014 model year pickup to keep it competitive in this American-dominated segment. We'll know for sure come Chicago.
Toyota settles first wrongful death suit related to unintended acceleration
Mon, 21 Jan 2013Toyota's sales seem to have rebounded from the unintended acceleration issues from 2009 and 2010, but the automaker is far from done dealing with this situation. Following a settlement worth up to $1.4 billion for economic loss to affected vehicle owners, Toyota has settled rather than going to trial in a wrongful death lawsuit stemming from an accident in Utah in 2010 that left two passengers dead. This isn't the first case in which Toyota has settled, but it was the first among a consolidated group of cases being held in Santa Ana, CA.
According to The Detroit News, this case was scheduled to take place next month, and it was for a November 2010 incident in which Paul Van Alfen and Charlene James Lloyd were killed in a Camry when, based on findings by the Utah Highway Patrol, the accelerator got stuck causing the car to speed out of control and hit a wall; the terms of the settlement were not announced.
The article says that while Toyota will settle on some cases, it doesn't plan on settling on all of them as it still wants to be able to "defend [its] product at trial." This will probably be the case in suits claiming that software for the drive-by-wire accelerator was the cause of an accident in a Toyota or Lexus vehicle. The question of whether or not the electronic accelerator played any role in this problem has been a hot-button topic since the beginning. Toyota has issued recalls in the past to attempt to prevent unintended acceleration caused by trapped floor mats and faulty accelerator pedals, but it also says driver error was to blame in some instances.
