This is a 1972 TOYOTA LANDCRUISER FJ 40 with a 1F engine and 3spd transmission. This is a one owner that was bought by an older guy in wyoming where it remained for most of its life to use as a hunting rig and the occasional drive around rig. Then the guy passed away and his son brought it back to Indiana where i was able to purchase the cruiser. It only has 17K miles on it which I believe to be accurate due to the overall condition of the cruiser. Which is also why its not rusted out as most cruiser of this vintage are. Its very solid with only minor rust on the rear sill and on each rear corner. The small section on the drivers side floor is rusted due to a mat being on the floor the passenger side floor is very solid with only surface rust. The bib, fenders, windshield frame and tub are all solid solid. Even the rear floor and the side fender boxes are solid. The quarters are really solid and still retain the original fender well with the original lip...most get rusted out or cut out. The bottoms of all the doors are solid even the barn doors....all original glass with no cracks or breaks. This is the one you want for a daily driver..."with some work" or a pretty easy restoration project. We all know how hard it is to find an original untouched landcruiser that still has all the hard to find parts. This one still has the original front seat configuration with the original tool box under the drivers side seat....very cool...WOW!! Even has the original rear jump seats that are very very hard to find that are in excellent condition....I even have the original TEQ bottle jack and handle.....The bonus with this cruiser is at some point the guy bought and original soft top with all original bows, soft doors and a drop down tailgate....but I dont think it was ever used because I dont think the hardtop has ever been off this cruiser. The original soft top stuff is just about impossible to find any more....This cruiser has everything going for it in a cruiser...1 owner  The original guy....for most of it and then me....original untouched condition with all the hard to find parts and in way above average condition for its age...... ORIGINAL UNTOUCHED CONDITION !!!!!!

 The winning bidder will also have a chance to purchase at an additional cost a 1978 2F engine transmission and transfer case. As well as a Disc brake front axle. If your wanting to upgrade.....

 

If you have any questions feel free to ask I have described this cruiser as best I can and have showed plenty of pictures to show condition If you need pics of anything let me know .  Thanks for looking.

Toyota Camry incentives and fleet sales cranked to keep sales crown, insiders worried

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

We've been watching for some time now as Toyota has piled more incentives on the hood of its Camry sedan, and Automotive News reports that the we're not the only ones with raised eyebrows. The current Camry hasn't even been on the market for two years, but the family sedan segment is more hotly contested than it has been in years. It's that high level of competition that has led the automaker to uncharacteristically add more money on the hood in order to assure it maintains its long-held title of America's Best-Selling Car, a mantle it has owned for a dozen years. It's ramping up fleet sales, too.
According to the analysts at TrueCar, Toyota has bumped incentives per unit every month this year, now totaling some $2,750 as of May, a 38-percent hike over this time last year. That's more spiff money than the segment's other best sellers, the Nissan Altima ($2,400), Ford Fusion ($2,300) and Honda Accord ($1,400), all of whom have actually decreased their incentive spend by 20- to 40-percent over the same period.
The ramp up in incentive spending and fleet sales has analysts concerned that Toyota will tarnish the Camry's historically sterling resale value. ALG pegs the 2013 Camry's current 36-month residual value at 54.4 percent, well ahead of the segment average's 50.9 percent (but shy of the Accord's 55.6 percent). However, analysts are concerned that as the current generation ages, their resale values will eventually plummet if incentives continue to increase as Toyota looks to keep the Camry's best-selling car crown going forward.

Toyota, Lexus expanding Takata airbag recall, re-notifying customers

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

Toyota is re-notifying owners and expanding its Takata airbag inflator recall for some regions. The renewed campaign covers 247,000 examples of the Toyota Corolla, Matrix, Sequoia, Tundra and Lexus SC430 that are located in southern Florida, along the Gulf Coast, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, the US Virgin Islands, Guam, Saipan and American Samoa. All of the models come from the 2001-2004 model years and have potentially faulty Takata-made inflators on the front passenger side. According to the company, testing shows the problem warrants "immediate action," and its press release says, "this action intensifies Toyota's efforts to reach customers and remedy previously recalled vehicles, and a small number of newly included vehicles."
According to Toyota, it submitted some recalled inflators to Takata for testing, and it found a high probability of rupturing in high humidity areas. The automaker said it had no reports yet of injuries or fatalities related to the problem.
This is Toyota's third inflator recall this year. In June, it called in for repair the same vehicles from the 2003-2005 model years in high-humidity areas, and it conducted a separate campaign nationwide for the parts in additional models. In April 2013, it also announced a fix campaign for 1.73-million vehicles worldwide for the same issue.

Car thief caught in McDonald's drive-thru after placing order with owner

Mon, 20 May 2013

If you're going to drive a stolen car in a town of roughly 77,000 people - about the same size as Scranton, Pennsylvania or Ogden, Utah - you want to be very careful about where you drive that stolen car to eat. That's the lesson Katherine York of Kennewick, Washington learned when she was arrested for being in possession of a stolen Toyota 4Runner that also happened to have a bunch of stolen clothes from JC Penney and Sears in it.
Virginia Maiden woke up Tuesday, May 14 to find her 1995 4Runner - that she thought she forgot to lock - swiped from her apartment building. At 3 PM that afternoon, while working her shift at the drive-thru at McDonald's that day, she saw her truck in line. York hadn't even gone far - the McDonald's is not even five miles from Maiden's apartment. Maiden called the police, they showed up just as York was leaving, and York made another vehicle switch, this time into a black-and-white for a trip to the Benton County jail. They don't have McDonald's there, but she won't have so far to go to eat.
