1983 Toyota Land Cruiser - Lift Kit - 35" Tires - No Reserve on 2040-cars
Three Lakes, Wisconsin, United States
|
1983 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60. Great, dependable driver. Recently redone interior. Lift kit with new 35" Toyo Mud Terrain tires, snorkel (not hooked up), paint is presentable but shows wear. Some scratches and small rust areas, but overall very clean. Originally titled in South Carolina. Frame is completely rust free outside of minimal surface rust. Body is bondo free to the best of my knowledge and has very minimal surface rust. Original inline 6 with an exempt odometer. Original owner stated he had the engine rebuilt about 15,000 miles prior to my purchase, but no documentation. Engine starts and runs well. Brakes need checking - not sure if it's from the large tires or if they need work. They do stop the vehicle but should/could work better. AC does not work. Everything else is operable to the best of my knowledge. Nice, clean FJ60 with lots of extras offered at no reserve. For sale locally, seller reserves the right to end auction early.
On Jun-17-14 at 05:57:13 PDT, seller added the following information: Common questions I'm getting: As the description and photos show, this FJ60 has very little frame rust. What I would classify as minimal surface rust on some areas of the frame. Zero rust-through on the frame. It's very clean, shown in photos. The body is very clean as well with minimal areas of rust coming through the paint under the door(s). This is one of the cleanest FJ60s I've ever owned. It is garage kept and was only driven in summer months by me. I have only owned it about 18 months. The brakes will stop the vehicle but do not work at 100%. I'd estimate them to be working at about a 25% level. This Cruiser will travel no problem at highway speeds up to 70 MPH. It could be driven home by the buyer, but again, the brakes are not 100% and are probably not the safest option at highway speeds. The tires (Toyo MTs) likely have less than 500 miles on them and are worth about $1,200 by themselves. I am selling it because I have a collection of vintage 4x4s which means too many to maintain and store, so this one didn't survive the cut. I forgot to note in the description - the filler neck on the gas tank will leak if over-filled. It has to be COMPLETELY filled to leak. On Jun-17-14 at 19:42:12 PDT, seller added the following information: If the bids exceed $6,000 I'll pay to have the brakes looked at/repaired prior to shipping or pick-up. |

Toyota's production fuel cell car to cost between $50-100k
Fri, 03 May 2013
While the cost of building a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle continues to go down over time, reports over the last few years have steadily maintained that the first Toyota hydrogen-powered vehicles for customers should ring up for around $50,000. Company officials cited this figure way back in 2010, and have reiterated it in subsequent years.
So, while a recent Automotive News report about the cost of Toyota's 2015 Hydrogen car doesn't offer up any new figures, it does offer an interesting pricing wrinkle. According to the report, the "cost factor" for the hydrogen vehicles will be in the $50k ballpark, meaning the retail price could be anywhere from there, up to as much as around $100,000.
Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"
Mon, 03 Dec 2012The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.
Ford only automaker to make 2012 Buzz Rankings, Toyota most improved
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Ford landed itself a spot among the top 10 brands in the 2012 Buzz Rankings. The annual index scores 1,100 brands in 41 categories to determine which nameplates had the most positive buzz throughout the year.
For the third year in a row, Subway took the top honors overall with a score of 40.3, and Ford was the only automaker to break into the top 25 by earning a sixth-place finish overall. The manufacturer earned a score of 32.1 points, which was enough to push it up one spot from the 2011 Buzz Rankings. Honda managed 21.2 points overall, which is still well behind 25th-place Kohl's at 26.5 points. Toyota, Volkswagen and BMW all round out the top five automakers.
The 2012 Buzz Rankings also keep track of which brands improved the most over the past year, and this year, Toyota was the manufacturer with the largest leap forward. The Japanese automaker jumped from just 14 points in 2011 to 20.5 in 2012. Chrysler, Kia, Dodge and Volkswagen all saw sizable steps forward as well.
