Freshly Restored Fj 40. Beautiful! Ultra Clean. on 2040-cars
San Diego, California, United States
This awesome ’64 FJ-40 4x4 was just treated to a complete, ground up restoration. It features a powerful Chevy 350 V8 mated to a 3-speed manual transmission. The completely rebuilt engine has been properly broken in and lifters properly adjusted. The body is laser straight and she tracks perfectly. The undercarriage, floors, frame, and all body panels are absolutely rust free, as they were all restored or replaced as needed during the restoration. This is a no excuses FJ. You will not be disappointed. She gets many thumbs up gestures every time I take her out. The tires and wheels (5) are brand new as is the ProComp suspension. 4WD engages perfectly. Brand new starter and fuel pump. The bikini top is new and in perfect condition. All gauges work as they should. Dual gas tanks. I do not have the doors or other tops. What you see in the pics is what I have. If I was planning on keeping this truck, the only thing I would consider adding is disc brakes on the front. Odometer reads a little under 25k miles but I have no idea how many miles are truly on the truck. Please feel free to shoot me a note if you have questions. I will do my best to answer them but I did not personally restore this vehicle. I am happy to shoot you pics or video of any other areas of the FJ you would like to see. The entire truck is virtually spotless. If you are not a serious bidder/buyer, please be respectful of our time. If you have zero feedback, please contact me before you place a bid. Please do not ask the reserve price. That said, you will not find a nicer FJ for anywhere close to what I am willing to take on this truck! I will work with the buyer to coordinate shipping and I am happy to store the car for you for a couple of weeks or so until you can pick it up or have a shipping company pick it up. It is currently kept in my garage in San Diego, CA, only minutes from the airport. Please note, this truck will not leave my garage until funds have cleared. There is no warranty of any kind included or implied. This is a great FJ that is very reasonably priced. I just need to make room in the garage, so somebody is going to get a great deal. Don’t let this one get away! I reserve the right to end the auction early if a deal is reached. Good luck bidding! |

Camatte concept puts the Toy back in Toyota [w/videos]
Mon, 16 Jun 2014It's been two years since Toyota first revealed its Camatte show car at the Tokyo Toy Show. Though sadly never destined for production, Toyota brought the concept back the following year as the Camatte 57s roadster, and is now returning to the same show with yet another take on the kid-friendly, configurable 1+2 with interchangeable body panels - this time with a slew of features that are fresh not only to the concept itself, but to the industry altogether.
This year the Camatte is being showcased in two forms: a bare chassis in the Tech Lab that lets kids see the inner workings of a modern automobile, and another in the Design Lab that lets kids draw their own motif for the concept that is then displayed on an LED hood.
The overall approach reminds us of the way Toyota's budget brand Daihatsu unveiled the Kopen roadster concept at the Tokyo Motor Show late last year, only even more kid-focused and decidedly more light-hearted than you might otherwise expect from one of the largest industrial giants in the world, and could only have been made for a toy exposition. In Japan. Which would explain the ridiculously upbeat videos below, where you'll also find the brief press release.

Recharge Wrap-up: Mazda, Subaru and Toyota PHEV, Nomadic Power grant
Sat, Jun 20 2015The next generation of the Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid looks to be important for Mazda and Subaru as well. Toyota will likely need to sell more of the new plug-in hybrid to meet stricter ZEV standards in California. That means it will get more extra electric range, as customers have been asking for. Subaru and Mazda will also have to adhere to the California standards beginning in 2018. Those two smaller automakers will likely license a plug-in hybrid powertrain from Toyota in order to fulfill compliance. Read more at Green Car Reports. Tesla is partnering with Dalhousie University to improve battery technology. Tesla signed a five-year research agreement with Dalhousie's Jeff Dahn, a lithium-ion battery researcher. Dahn and the 25 researchers in his lab will work with Tesla's Director of Battery Technology, Kurt Kelty, to increase capacity through improved materials. The collaboration could be important both for Tesla's automotive and stationary batteries. "Our research group's goal is to increase the energy density and lifetime of Li-ion batteries, so we can drive down costs in automotive and grid energy storage applications," says Dahn.

Nomadic Power's mobile batteries, called Nomads, have incorporated photovoltaic systems and can be used to extend the electric driving range of a plug-in vehicle, or to provide backup power to a home. The Nomads use an intelligent energy management system to learn and predict user behavior and manage the solar system based on weather forecasts. "We see a strong future in electric-powered mobility and an increasing use of renewable energy, photovoltaic power in particular," says Nomadic Power CEO Dr. Manfred Baumgaertner. "Our mobile batteries have great potential in these markets that recently got a significant shot in the arm by Tesla's announcements." Read more from Nomadic Power, and at Green Car Congress.
