1980 Toyota Land Cruiser on 2040-cars
Pena Blanca, New Mexico, United States
Absolutely beautiful 1980 BJ40 Toyota Landcruiser with 4 spd manual and
2B 3.2L, indestructible Toyota Diesel Engine. The odometer currently shows approximately 150,000 km (turned over
once) which comes out to approximately 93,000 original miles. This may change because I do drive it some for fun
and because it is the most reliable vehicle I own. The truck has absolutely no rust anywhere and was resprayed in
its original Toyota Red color in 2014. This was a frame off repaint and the truck had very little rust at the time
so there was no need to replace body panels-just to primer, sand, and paint. The paint job is not perfect, but it
does look beautifully renewed and shines in the mid-day New Mexico sun. The instrument cluster, seats, switches,
wiring, door lock hardware, windshield wipers, windshield sprayer, fuse panel, wiring, taillights, license plate,
axels, transmission, frame, motor, and various other parts are all original. Some of the ancillary accessory parts
such as turn signals, hood latches, sun visors, and some other wear items are replacement items sourced as Toyota
OEM, mostly new old stock, sometimes used. Comes with a Toyota Landcruiser original 3-piece floor mat for the front
seats.
This truck has been sorted and gone through and it drives and rides great. It sits at the original ride height on
original leaf springs and shackles. The shocks were replaced at some point in the past. The wheels are Toyota OEM
15" steel wheels with Toyota hubcaps. The tires are brand new as the old ones were showing signs of dry rot and
cracking. This is a beautiful, nearly show truck, that you will absolutely love.

Dubai claims debut of Toyota GT86 sedan concept
Sun, 03 Nov 2013Typically, when the organizers of an auto show reveal that a new car will debut at their show, we take notice. But this particular claim from the Dubai International Motor Show ought to be taken with a grain of salt.
As our compatriots at AutoGuide discovered, the Facebook page for the Emirates auto expo includes a post with an interesting claim: that a sedan based on the Toyota GT86 (known in the US as the Scion FR-S) will debut at the show. The Facebook post is accompanied by the image above, purporting to show the concept in question.
The strange part is that the organizers claim the four-door GT86 concept will make its "regional unveil" at the Dubai show, which would seem to indicate that the concept in question would make its international debut at an earlier show. Considering that the doors open in Dubai on Tuesday, that seems increasingly unlikely. All of this begs the question, If this isn't actually a four-door GT86, what might it be?
J.D. Power: Vehicle dependability at all-time high, Lexus and Porsche lead
Wed, 13 Feb 2013
Each year, J.D. Power and Associates surveys original owners of three-year-old vehicles to find out what kinds of problems they have had experienced over the last 12 months, and then it uses this data to create its annual Vehicle Dependability Study. This means that the models in the 2013 study are 2010 model year vehicles, and J.D. Power rates each make as well as the top individual models based on how many problems were experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100).
Debunking the idea that carryover models are more dependable than new or updated models, the 2013 study found that the average carryover model experienced 133 PP100, while all-new or redesigned vehicles for the 2010 model year had 116 PP100; vehicles that received minor changes fared the best with just 111 PP100. The overall average for all makes was 126 PP100, which is the lowest figure since the findings were first issued in 1989.
Toyota temporarily idles pair of Indian plants due to labor unrest
Thu, 20 Mar 2014The Detroit News reported today that Toyota will restart production at two Indian plants, following a shutdown on Monday.
Factory labor, management and police in Asia engage in the kind of violent altercations that we're not used to, having almost entirely walked away from the overtly brutal relations epitomized by the Pinkerton Detective Agency and the Flint Sit-Down Strike. In India, a plant owned by a Ford transmission supplier plant was shut down in 2009 after incidents between workers and armed men around the same time as Ssangyong workers occupied a factory in South Korea, in 2012 Suzuki Maruti workers rioted over wages around the same time upset employees beat a ceramics factory president to death in retaliation for a labor leader's killing.
Toyota is the latest to company trying to avoid that road. The Detroit Free Press reported earlier this week that it shut down two plants in India after 11 months of acrimonious wage negotiations and arbitration have gone nowhere. Toyota said the plant workers in Bidadi, near Bangalore, had deliberately stopped production at times over the past 45 days and threatened management. The workers said they wanted their wages raised by an amount already agreed to by management, but that management had reneged; news reports weren't clear on the amount, some saying nearly 10,000 rupees ($165 US) more per month, another saying 4,000 rupees ($65 US), but reports agree that Toyota has said it will only go as high as 3,050 rupees ($50 US).
