EVEN THOUGH THIS VEHICLE IS LISTED ON EBAY IN AN AUCTION FORMAT IT WILL MOST LIKELY BE SOLD BEFORE THE AUCTION ENDS.

1972 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser. $7k 350 v8. Restored.
You will rarely see a classic FJ40 this nice for the asking price.  This 1972 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser which I was told has been professionally restored to include everything needed for modern convenience, power, reliability, performance and comfort.

I bought this just under a year ago on eBay with the intention of keeping it for the long-haul.  Unexpected financial commitments and time have forced me to sell.  My loss is your gain.

Recently upgraded to 4 wheel disc brakes and aluminum radiator.  Major improvement over the stock drum brakes.

Previous owner told me there was over $32K invested.  The work that was completed on this rig was done around 2008, according to the previous owner and listed below:
-Body was taken down to bare metal, sandblasted, primed and professionally painted a beautiful forest green. Paint is in good condition for being 5 years old.
-Frame was sandblasted and painted
-A full rebuilt custom high performance Chevy 350 V8 was installed at a cost of over $7K
-New Automatic Transmission with Lokar shifter
-Aftermarket Centerline Aluminum Wheels w Spare Wheel
-Aftermarket 33x12.5 Wildcat Extreme Tires with full size spare
-Custom CD Stereo system hidden nicely in glove box
-Warn XD9000 winch
-Power Steering
-4 wheel disc brake upgrade
-Custom Gauge Cluster mounted under dash
-3.5” Rancho Suspension lift with Rancho RS5000 shocks
-New Best Top Soft top
-Custom Grant GT Steering wheels
-Custom fabricated rear steel bumper with rear tail light cutouts, trailer hitch and tow hooks
-New Powder coated full roll cage
-All New Glass and Rubber
-Two new batteries

In Full Disclosure:
-There is a small ~2” scratch behind the passenger door
-Some minor paint chipping
-Carburetor needs adjustment and engine needs tune up.

Also included with this vehicle are:
-Side and rear panels for the hard top, but don't have the fiberglass top and rain gutter pieces.  
-Bikini top included.
-Black diamond plated half doors.
-Various weatherstripping.

This truck is virtually new. Fires right up, sounds great and runs incredibly. Everything works including the heater, headlights, wipers, tail lights, signals, and so on. The body is as straight as they come, laser straight in fact No Rust EVER.  This is a well built FJ40. If you want a truck to drive on and off road that still looks good and still resembles a FJ40 this is for you.  Building a truck like this from stock form would cost twice the price.  So don't miss your chance to own the truck at a fraction of build cost.  This truck is ready to go right now.  

A $1500 non-refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of auction conclusion. The rest wire transfer or cashier’s check within 7 days closed auction. I do NOT accept paypal as there have been issues with it, so wire or cash preferred.

2014 Toyota Highlander recalled over seatbelt anchors

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Toyota has announced a small recall of its redesigned, 2014 Highlander over issues with one of its seat belts. The affected vehicles, which were built from November 20, 2013 to January 18, 2014, could have a seatbelt assembly in the middle seat of the third row that wasn't properly secured to a floor anchorage at the factory.
In total, 7,067 of the new Highlanders are included in the recall, which was discovered not after a crash, but during a post-build inspection at the factory. It's unclear if there have been any injuries as a result of the faulty seat belts.
Toyota is set to inform owners of the affected vehicles as well as dealers with the recalled Highlander models in their inventory. Naturally, repairs will be performed free of charge. For the full bulletin form the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, scroll down.

Toyota recalls 52k units of 2011-2012 Avalon for potential short circuit

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Toyota is issuing a recall for roughly 52,000 examples of its 2011 and 2012 Avalon sedans in the US because a possible short circuit in the wiring for audio system's subwoofer may cause a fire. According to Toyota, it's possible for the subwoofer's wires to move out of position if contacted by cargo in the trunk. If one of the wires then contacts the metal frame of the speaker, it could trigger a short circuit. "If this occurs, the subwoofer could overheat, increasing the risk of a fire," according to the automaker. "There were two reports of thermal events – no outright fires," said Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight to Autoblog. Toyota reports there are no reports of injuries, fatalities or crashes from this problem. Dealers will repair this problem at no cost, but until then, they will immediately disconnect the rear subwoofer as a precaution for owners. The recall notices will be sent out in mid-February, according to Knight. TOYOTA RECALLS CERTAIN 2011-2012 MODEL YEAR AVALON VEHICLES TORRANCE, Calif., January 28, 2015 – Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc., today announced plans to conduct a safety recall of approximately 52,000 Model Year 2011-2012 Avalon sedans. In the involved vehicles, cargo could contact one of the audio system subwoofer wires located inside the trunk, and move the wire out of its normal position. If one of these wires contacts the metal frame of the subwoofer, it may result in an intermittent short circuit. If this occurs, the subwoofer could overheat, increasing the risk of a fire. Toyota is not aware of any crashes, injuries, or fatalities caused by this condition. Owners of the involved vehicles will receive a notification by first class mail. Toyota dealers will provide a repair for the audio system. Until the remedy is available, as a precaution, Toyota dealers will disconnect the rear subwoofer.

Toyota reveals new versions of FT-1 concept at Pebble Beach [w/video]

Thu, 14 Aug 2014

Toyota certainly caught our attention when it unveiled the FT-1 concept at the Detroit Auto Show last January. Coming from the same people who gave us the Lexus LFA, Scion FR-S and Toyota Supra, the FT-1 concept looked striking in its bright red livery. But the Japanese automaker isn't quite done with it yet.
No, we're afraid we don't have a production announcement to share at the moment, but Toyota has revealed two new versions of the FT-1 concept that cast it in different light. Most notable is the graphite version pictured above. Replacing the bright red paintjob and two-tone red and black interior of the original concept, this second iteration - presented in the metal at McCall's Motorworks Revival in Monterey, California - goes for a more upscale and refined graphite exterior and a tan leather interior with exposed metal elements.
Both versions of the virtually road-going FT-1 concept will be playable in GT6, but at the same time Toyota also revealed (in digital form, at least) a virtual racing version of the concept called the FT-1 Vision Gran Turismo. Looking like the original concept was prepared for Japan's Super GT series, the FT-1 Vision GT is retuned for racing, with wider fenders, more extreme aero, competition-spec alloys on slicks and the like.
