1982 Toyota Land Cruiser Base Sport Utility 4-door 4.2l - Meet "hank: The Tank" on 2040-cars
Maitland, Florida, United States
1982 Toyota Landcruiser FJ60 Up for auction is "Hank the Tank". Let me tell you a bit about Hank. I have owned this vehicle for about 4 years and currently drive it 3-4 days a week. In the years that I have owned this vehicle, it has started EVERY time without fail. Here's what you need to know:
THE GOOD - Runs Strong - Engine Strong, clutch good, brakes good - Does NOT burn oil! - Interior in good condition - Newer tires, tons of tread - Comes with step bars and safari roof rack - Carb rebuilt 2 years ago - Fluids recently changed and tune up - Oil changed regularly - Radio works - 4-speed, manual transmission - 4WD works great, however never use it. - I also have new emblems for the the driver side rear, "Toyota Landcruiser" and the tailgate "4WD" emblem. - NO CRACKS on the dashboard!
THE BAD - Small leak in the power steering (does not bother me, I simply refill every so often) - Small exhaust manifold leak, so it rumbles a little (personally adds a bit of character!) - Interior fan stopped working a few months ago. I believe its a blower motor relay (or blower motor). A/C was working great before fan went out. - Typical tear in drivers seat (see photo) - Carpet on tailgate has come loose.
THE UGLY - There is some rust on the vehicle. Typical areas for a Landcruiser. I've identified key problem areas highlighted in green in the photo's. The frame is solid. (See photos)

Consumer Reports calls on Toyota to recall older Camry Hybrid models
Thu, 31 Jul 2014Consumer Reports is calling on Toyota to issue an official recall of 178,000 Camry Hybrid sedans from model years 2007 to 2011, claiming that a pair of issues affecting the brakes are so dire they demand a more official action than what the company has undertaken so far.
The first issue, as CR tells it, relates to a clog in the brake-fluid reservoir filter, which if left untreated could lead to a number of dashboard warning lights. The "front brake assist could be temporarily lost," too, according to Toyota's own notice to dealers and owners of affected models. The company has issued a "service campaign" that will fit a new brake-fluid reservoir free of charge to any affected model brought to a dealer by June 30, 2017.
The other issue plaguing the fuel-sipping Camrys is being treated via a warranty extension, and focuses on the ABS brake actuator, a particularly expensive (both in terms of parts, at $1,000, and labor, around $3,000) item that is necessary for the anti-lock braking to function. There's also a related issue with the brake pedal's "stroke sensor," which like the actuator can lead to a very difficult-to-depress brake pedal. The warranty extension increases the coverage of the actuator to 10 years or 150,000 miles (whichever comes first).
Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.
Toyota GT86 GT4 racer is ready for UK competition
Tue, 05 Feb 2013It's about time we saw someone cook up a legitimate race version of the delectable Toyota GT86, and now it looks as if GPRM has done just that. The Buckingham-based race engineering team has built the creation you see here, complete with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, direct-injection four-cylinder boxer cooked up by Nicholson McLaren Engines. The team says the new mill delivers between 360 and 400 horsepower to the rear wheels depending on final testing, which is a sight bit more than the 197 horses the naturally aspirated stock mill offers.
The car will compete in GT4 events, including the Avon Tyres British GT Championship. Technically, the GPRM effort isn't factory backed, but the team says the effort "has the blessing of Toyota Great Britain." How could it not? You can check out the brief press release below below, and be sure to take a closer look at the machine in our gallery.
