1970 Toyota Land Cruiser Fj40 on 2040-cars
Phoenix, Arizona, United States
|
THIS ITEM WAS SOLD ON EBAY A COUPLE WEEKS AGO BUT THE BUYER DID NOT PAY.
I am selling my 1970 Toyota fj40. Has a rebuilt chevy small block 400 motor. Starts up every time. Leave for 6 months and come back and she starts right up. I have owned it for 4 years and have never had a problem with it. Has a 5" lift with new 35" tires and 18"wheels. Magna flow dual exhaust. Bed liner throughout the cabin that looks perfect and brand new. Roll cage from the front of the Fj to the back tires wheel wells. Fenders are bolted into the roll bar. Interior is a 9 out of a 10. not sure what i have to do to make it a 10 out of 10, just being modest. The canopy is in great shape. Its painted in a flat black and in the interior ceiling it is sprayed in white rhino lining. No keys to start this baby. All race car start with switches and a hidden kill switch. 3 speed Automatic. Aluminum half doors that nobody has. power steering. Eye catching car. Since i have owned it and painted it, it has never seen any off road. If you are looking for an off roader this car is ready to go, might be a little to nice to beat up though. But if you want to make it a show car its pretty close. I purchased the fj in oregon and had it shipped down to Az. Previous owner built the fj to be a off roader but my intentions were to get it to perfect and have it be a daily driver and look flawless. was well on my way but decided to buy another project (67 mustang fastback) and all my funds went towards the stang. Reason for selling is that i would like make the mustang my sole focus so i can get it to where i want it to be. The fj has been very reliable for me. Put around 2000 miles on it 4 years. Didnt drive it too much. But when i did drive the fj it was great. Motor and exhaust sound beefy and mean. I drove it all over the valley in phoenix az. Drove great on the highway, just cruised at 55 to 60. All and all this is a great looking Fj that has a straight as can be body in exception of one tiny dent on the front drivers side fender minor flaws The turn signal switch is a little quirky, it works but you have to hold it a certain way. Back right tail light works when you push your breaks but not when the car is just on with lights on. Minor cracks in paint in a couple places. Fenders will need to be re painted, due to some cracks in the paint from storage. Rarely had the fenders on, i liked the way it looked without them. looks like some of the chrome on the headers is coming off. All of these flaws are very minor, like it said earlier if u want a show car this is very close to being what you need. If you have any questions just give me a call at 480-621-0888 or email through ebay. I have more than 15k into it but i know the market for these doesnt sell where i could break even. So hopefully it goes ok so i dont loose too much. Have fun my name is Aaron Good Luck |

Judge halts Toyota unintended acceleration cases, triggers time for settlement negotiations
Mon, 16 Dec 2013So far, the lawsuits brought forth against Toyota for unintended acceleration have gone both ways: the automaker was found not at fault in a 2009 California crash and liable for a 2007 crash in Oklahoma. Both cases involved a Camry and resulted in fatalities. With a big chunk of these UA cases (around 200) set to his the docket of US District Judge James V. Selna in Santa Ana, California, Bloomberg is reporting that the judge has halted the lawsuits until March after Toyota and its lawyers have had extra time to try and settle the cases.
According to the article, Toyota is looking to take care of the cases out of court with an "intensive settlement process." Having already paid out $1.6 billion in "economic loss" suits, this latest settlement process is aimed at the wrongful death and personal injury cases allegedly associated with unintended acceleration. A hearing for the settlements will be held on January 14 with conferences on the matter commencing in February. There is no word as to when lawsuits may start back up if settlements can't be agreed upon.
KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
Toyota nearing $1B settlement of unintended acceleration criminal probe
Sun, 09 Feb 2014According to those all-too-nebulous "people familiar with the matter," Toyota is close to a settlement with the US federal government to end a criminal probe over its long-running unintended acceleration fiasco. Though Toyota has never admitted guilt, the deal could reportedly crest a billion dollars and would likely include a criminal deferred prosecution agreement, and while we're not legal experts, The Wall Street Journal explains that such a deal would "[force Toyota] to accept responsibility while avoiding the potentially crippling consequences of federal criminal convictions."
The report from WSJ also suggests that Toyota is facing charges that it "made false or incomplete disclosures" to various government agencies regarding possible defects to its cars. Such charges may include mail and wire fraud violations. Toyota has already paid out fines totaling $66.2 million to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration because it failed to report safety defects in a timely manner.
This deal with the federal government is not related to the billion-dollar class-action settlement reached with Toyota owners over falling vehicle values, and it's also different from the roughly 400 lawsuits still in courts alleging personal injury of wrongful death due to cases of unintended acceleration. In other words, don't expect to hear the end of such courtroom verdicts and settlements anytime soon...
