1984 Toyota Fj60 Land Cruiser 4x4 Project on 2040-cars
Eagle, Idaho, United States
I've owned this for about 3 years and driven it all over town and the mountains until I seized the engine a few months ago. Everything was reliable until the engine died. The seats were solidly mounted with to the stock brackets after about 10 hours of fabrication. I have no idea what the seats came from but they're leather, power and very comfortable. The passenger seat has a 1" tear that isn't noticeable to most people and could easily be repaired. I have not finished hooking up the power to the seats. The dash is cracked and peeling. Where the bezel surround the air controls I narrowed it and removed the coin holder that is normally there. You may notice the radio is not in the stock location because of this. The radiator is a polished aluminum radiator that was installed in 2013 and works great. It's made especially for a Cruiser. I installed a Specter Offroad smog pump delete bracket/pulley. The reason why a few engine items are missing is because I thought I was going to put a 5300 in it but I have too many projects and too little time. This does have rust in the normal spots. I cut out most of the rust and replaced it with fresh metal around the drivers side rear wheel area. The passenger side still has the rust. The tailgate has rust on the bottom 1". You could replace the rust with fresh metal, use it as is or get another tailgate. The roof rail has rust bubbles around it. This has the original front and rear bumpers which are pretty straight. The transmission and transfer case work great. Clutch is good. You'll see the the rear window needs replaced. It has a hole in it. All seat belts are there an installed. Door panels would look better if you replaced them too. I purchased the wheels from Summit back in September and they fit great along with the 33x10.50-15 BFG's. One tire is new and the other three are good tires. They do not need replaced. This does not have a lift kit on it and the tires are tight but with a little massaging around the fender wells they'll fit perfectly. There are a couple of spots that get some tire rub but very little. The lights work and it's ready for a new engine.
This Cruiser needs an engine, carb and distributor to drive. Nothing else. Everything else it could use is cosmetic. It's a project.
If you want it shipped then I can have it at my business in Garden City, Idaho for a truck to pick it up. Right now it's at my house.Shipping is the buyers responsibility. I can help load it. |

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Are you the facelifted Toyota Yaris?
Fri, 28 Mar 2014As basic transportation goes, there's not a lot to complain about with the Toyota Yaris. The five-door hatch (not to mention its JDM cousin, the Vitz) are due for upgrades, though, having toddled along in its current form since the 2011 model year. Now, we have what looks to be leaked images of the new Yaris, straight from a Japanese brochure.
The next-gen Yaris was previewed in Frankfurt by the Yaris Hybrid-R Concept. Surprisingly, both the standard version and the RS (shown above) share a strong resemblance with the Frankfurt concept. That gaping lower intake remains, while a pointy, sharp front end shares a resemblance with the new Aygo city car (though the Yaris won't have a giant X on its face like its smaller cousin). The lower intake is flanked by a pair of what we're guessing are non-functional grilles, which house the fog lights. There are only a few small images of the rear of the car, which looks more like an evolution of the current five-door hatch.
The interior looks rather racy, with a small, thick-rimmed, leather-wrapped steering wheel and black cloth seats with red contrast stitching. There's a bright red button to the right of the steering wheel on this right-hand-drive JDM model, which could indicate the arrival of pushbutton start. Under hood of this Mazda-built Toyota should be a Mazda Skyactiv engine. That gives us hope that this latest Toyota compact will be imbued with some sense of driving fun.
