1965 Toyota Fj-45 Landcruiser Troopy 4x4 Wagon: Rare Fj45lv, Nice Body! on 2040-cars
Eureka, Montana, United States
I CAN TALK ON THE PHONE IF YOU'D LIKE, AND I CAN MAKE A DEAL ON IT EARLY AT ANY TIME. THANKS 1965 TOYOTA FJ-45 4x4 WAGON These FJ45 wagons are super rare and have a high value when restored. If you going to fix something up, these are great because they are worth more and hold their value well. This fj needs full resto but has a great body for restoration. The exterior is rust free and it is really straight overall. It is 99.99% complete and appears original. This landcruiser was most likely bought new in my hometown. I bought it from a local person that I know that has had it since 1982. It hasn't been titled since then. He bought it from another local gentleman, who I also knew. It hasn't been licensed since 1986. I've looked on ebay alot and other places online, and there are usually very few if any for sale like this. Here are all the details. I have many more pics I can send if you'd like. You can use the ebay system or my email address below. Thanks. TUDDY5@MSN.COM BODY The toyota needs full restoration but it is very sound. There is NO exterior rust or anything close to rust. U was told this body may be galvanized. I don't know about that, but I do know that the exterior is rust free. The body is very straight with the exception of a ding in each rear fender, bent tailgate, and bent hood. Reproduction hoods are probably readily available and the same as an fj40. The doors, fenders, quarters, roof, frame, etc. etc. are nice. Sills, rockers, jams are nice. Dash is uncut. The seats look original. The cargo area and wheelhouses are in nice shape. Tailgate and rear jam have no rust. Tailgate is bent, but does open/close. Other doors open/close and latch. Front floorpans has rust in front of and behind the seat. Front clip, firewall, header, and frame are rust free. Frame VIN matches the vin tag. Passenger side rear side window is included but not in it. It is in good shape and will be packaged before the toyota is shipped. Transmission cover is off, but is included and uncut. Originally a column shift which is still in it, but now has a floor shifter. Overall, a very nice body for restoration but does need the floorpan work. They probably sell re-production pieces but a bodyman could fab it easily anyways. MECHANICAL The toyota has what I'm sure is the original six cylinder engine. Everything mechanical appears original. If it matters to you, I can check the numbers on it. I worked on getting this running but I believe it needs carb work and/or ignition work. It turns over and I had it firing, but never got it started. I needed it out of my shop so I stopped working on it and never got back to it. I can't say for sure if the motor will be usable or not, or need rebuilt. Transmission is most likely the original, but now has a floor shifter. Original cover is included. The vehicle steers and tires hold air. I do not believe the brakes work. Driveline that is pictured laying in the back is not for this vehicle. INTERIOR The interior appears all original and needs full restoration. Seats appear original. Dash is uncut and gauges all look original. THIS VEHICLE IS USED, OLD, AND SOLD AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY. IT NEED RESTORATION AND DOESN'T RUN. |

Toyota casts off in Ponam-31 motor yacht [w/video]
Sun, 12 Oct 2014Some Japanese automakers focus purely on cars, while others dabble in all sorts of motorized transportation. Honda, for example, makes everything from motorbikes to jet aircraft. But while Toyota may be known principally for automobiles, it also makes a line of boats. And this is the latest.
The new Toyota Ponam-31 motor yacht is built around an aluminum hull with a flybridge and cockpit rear deck layout, similar to the Carver 32 on which this writer spent his childhood summers. It measures 31 feet overall and is powered by a pair of 3.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engines derived from the Land Cruiser Prado (known in these parts as the Lexus GX 460) but marinized for nautical application. Toyota has even equipped its new Sports Utility Cruiser with such features as Drive Assist and a Virtual Anchor System.
Toyota expects to sell around 15 units of the Ponam-31 through its network of 49 dealers across Japan, with prices starting at 29,700,000 yen (about $27,500 at today's conversion rates). Scroll down below for a video, along with a press release, meant to show potential customers what's waiting for them.
Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
Tesla expects another higher-volume deal with Toyota in next few years
Tue, 09 Sep 2014Four months have passed since Toyota ended its relationship with Tesla Motors, in which the electric-vehicle specialist supplied full lithium-ion battery packs to the Japanese behemoth for its RAV4 EV rollout, of which 2,500 vehicles will be completed. Now, Tesla founder and CEO Elon Musk has been heard suggesting that a future collaboration is likely within the next two to three years, and that it will probably be much larger than the last one.
Both Tesla and Toyota have sung each other's praises in the not-too-distant past, Toyota telling Autoblog back in May, "We have a good relationship with Tesla and will evaluate the feasibility of working together on future projects." According to Automotive News, Musk said of the Japanese giant, "We love working with Toyota... We have a huge amount of respect for them as a company and certainly much to learn."
Interestingly, though, the two automakers have rather divergent strategies for eco-friendly automobiles. Toyota, as you're surely aware, is the clear-cut leader in hybrids and has thrown its massive support in the direction of hydrogen fuel cells, while Tesla has invested heavily in battery-electric technology and high-speed charging stations.
