1975 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 Last Summer I put a lot of money and time in this Cruiser, I had a Cruiser Specialty shop in Everett do most of the work. It runs great and is really fun to drive. I just don't use it as much as I hoped to. When I brought the car in they replaced every gasket on the engine, replaced the hoses and belts and Spark Plugs. The carb was rebuilt and tuned up. New Motor mounts as well as a new exhaust from the engine to the tailpipe. They removed the Fuel tank and cleaned it out. Replacing the fuel pump and filter with a newer more reliable electric Holley pump. The Sender also got replaced and a new reliable gauge mounted on the dash. I didnt want to leave any suspension piece not rebuilt. So I had them replace all of the bushings and tie rods. At the same time we replaced the Leaf Springs and Shocks with a lift kit. I had them install a FJ60 Power Steering box so it was easier to drive. The Front and Rear Differentials were also rebuilt. New Axle Bearings and Seals, Rebuilt breaks a 4 new tires. The truck rides really nice and smooth. It Starts easy and the blue paint looks awesome. I had the Front fenders repainted because they had a lot of rock chips over the years. At the same time I had a little rust repaired on the Hard top. Can't even tell it was there. The original Seats were very uncomfortable, they installed modern and comfortable BMW Bucket seats up front. Then recovered the rear seats to match the leather. I powder coated the frames also. Up front we put in Shoulder harnesses. As you can see I wanted to restore the running gear so it would be reliable and safe. I have 13k in receipts I can provide upon request. All of this was done in July of last year (2013). I only drove the car a few hundred miles afterwards. The car currently has 82,300 miles I own the car outright with no liens or loans. I also have the Title in Hand! -Mike |

2014 Toyota Tundra gets five grades priced from $25,920*
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Toyota has announced pricing details for its refreshed 2014 Tundra, with the fullsize pickup offered in five grades. Naturally, that doesn't include the buyer's choice of three cab styles, the option of two- or four-wheel drive, and a choice of a 4.0-liter V6 base engine or 4.6-liter and 5.7-liter V8s.
The base SR starts at $25,920, while the volume SR5 model starts at $29,465. Toyota notes that all SR5s ordered with the big V8 hold the line on pricing from 2013 while including a further $650 in standard equipment. The first of three high-end trims, Limited, starts at $36,940, while the Platinum and 1794 Edition both start at $44,270, with all prices subject to a $995 destination charge. Also noteworthy on the cost-savings front, Limited CrewMax 4x4 models are priced $2,000 less than their 2013 equivalents, (4x2 buyers save $1,900).
As is typical for a model as as customizable as a pickup, Toyota's pricing structure is far from simple. Adding the 5.7-liter V8 at one trim level can cost several hundred dollars more or less than another trim level - the same goes for adding four-wheel drive. So, rather than break out the Enigma Machine to try and decipher what options cost what on which trim, we've just rolled the whole pricing chart in. Scroll down for a look, including Toyota's full press release, and then check out our recent First Drive feature of the truck.
Russians create Toyota Land Cruiser ice sculpture with full interior
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The Toyota Land Cruiser is a pretty hot model around the world. But it took the Russians to make it cool. We have few hard, cold facts and only small slivers of information about these photos, but it seems the icy Toyota was part of the International Snow & Ice Festival in Perm, Russia.
Artists took a huge chunk of ice and shaved it down to the temporary art installation you see here. The sub-zero SUV comes complete with a full interior accessed by the (permanently frozen open) driver's side door. The steering wheel and seats look to be upholstered in, well, dirt. With the back seats removed, the frigid four-door is a pretty slick ride in which to chill out.
Just a thought, but wouldn't a Toyota Tundra have been more appropriate? See the gallery for more photos.
North American production of foreign marques to jump in 2014
Sun, 23 Dec 2012Wards Auto has released its North American Light Vehicle Production Forecast for 2014, and the report predicts foreign manufacturers will increase production on the continent some 3.9 percent by 2014. If accurate, that should see 123,000 additional cars, trucks and vans produced in North America, swelling the total number of units produced both by domestic and foreign manufacturers to 16.9 million light vehicles from a projected 15.6 million in 2013. Much of the increase can be attributed to the fact that Toyota intends to produce another car at its Blue Springs, MS plant as well as a new Lexus model at its Georgetown, KY facility in a year's time.
Likewise, Volkswagen intends to move production of a currently imported model to its plant in Puebla, Mexico. Daimler, Honda, Nissan and Mazda also plan to build additional models on North American soil for the first time. Around two-thirds of the new North American manufacturing will take place in Mexico, helping the country soak up a full 20 percent of the content's automotive production for the first time.
