I have a 77 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 with a 3/4 Aluminum body, Aluminum Drop Down Tailgate, and brand new rear fender flares on it up for sale. The previous owner said the engine ran perfect when he bought it and that his son messed it up when he got his license and that the engine needs to be rebuilt or at least the block does. I'm going to be picking up a running 2F engine that I will include for an extra $450 if you want to do a quick swap. If you want to you can hear it run before I pull it out of the truck. The front and rear brakes, brake lines and also has a new brake master cylinder that were just done 6 months ago. The front bib has some rust on it and I will include one in much better shape to replace the one thats on the truck right now. The windshield frame has some bubbling along the bottom edge and will need some sanding and bodywork or you can swap another windshield frame on. Think I know someone who has one off a 76. The rest of the truck is in good shape with the aluminum body and drop down tailgate. The frame is also in good shape and was painted a year ago by the P.O. The aluminum body was rhino-lined inside the tub and under it at one point as well. All of the lights, blinkers, and even the radio works. Both front seats are in great shape and have a locking center console in between the seats. The skinny wheels and tires that are on the truck do not come with it, I have another set that go with the truck that you can see on it with the pictures of the soft top on it. I just have these skinny wheels and tires on, so I can roll it easier. Truck was garage kept before the previous owner and has been garage kept since I have owned it. Have a clear NJ title for it as well. The trucks inspection sticker is good til May of 2014. The truck will come with a extra hood, front bib in much better shape to replace the rusted one that's on the truck, a 1 year old soft top & split front soft doors, black bikini top, "2" Rear hatch doors & crossbar for hard top, and a couple of other boxes of parts. If you have any questions or want to stop by to look at it email me or call me at

Scion FR-S Convertible (in Toyota GT86 form) spied in South Africa
Fri, 15 Feb 2013Though the eventual existence of a convertible version of the Toyota GT86 (and its Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ versions for America) is a no-brainer, we've yet to get a glimpse of the real-deal car until now.
Spotted in Cape Town, South Africa, of all places, this completely undisguised GT86 convertible seems to be in a remarkably advanced state of development. The image seen here was obviously sniped from quite a distance and without the aid of a powerful lens, but we can still make out a production-ready looking piece of rear bodywork for the convertible top to hide away in, as well as a functioning trunk lid. It's hard to make out with any certainty, based on this evidence, but there does seem to be space retained behind the front seats for two, small rear chairs.
With the first car spotted, we'd expect to seem some more and better images of it flow through in the near future, and if not, Toyota has already confirmed a concept version for next month's Geneva Motor Show, dubbed FT-86 Open, so stay tuned. For now, click through to the FT86Club.com forum to have a slightly closer look at the images.
2013 Toyota RAV4 earns 'poor' rating in IIHS small overlap crash test [w/video]
Thu, 11 Jul 2013When the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety tested a batch of SUVs in its small overlap frontal crash test earlier this year, it held off on putting the Toyota RAV4 in the blender because the new, 2013 model was due to arrive shortly after the test. The new crossover might be better than it was before, but it could still only manage a rating of "Poor" in the test that has been a bugbear for a number of manufacturers.
Among other issues, the IIHS noted that the steering column moved seven inches to the right causing the crash test dummy to practically miss the airbag, the dummy's left foot was trapped in deformed sheetmetal and the dummy's head hit the instrument panel.
The 2013 RAV4 earned the Top Safety Pick rating by scoring well in the Institute's four other tests. A good score in this particular test would have earned it the Top Safety Pick+ rating that is so far only claimed by the 2014 Subaru Forester and 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport in the SUV category. There's a press release below with more details and a video of the test.
Tesla now California's top automotive employer
Fri, 16 May 2014Tesla has knocked off Toyota as the biggest auto employer in the state of California, employing over 6,000 people to the Japanese company's 5,300. That lead is only likely to grow, as the EV manufacturer prepares to add another 500 jobs by the end of the year, and as Toyota begins its relocation to its new North American headquarters in Texas. The news comes barely a week after the company announced a $50 million loss during the first quarter of 2014.
Tesla's statewide employment could be set to double, beyond even 6,500 people, if it follows through on rumors to construct its eagerly awaited gigafactory in the Golden State. The $5-billion venture could add another 6,500 employees, making Tesla not just the largest automotive employer in the state, but making it one of the largest employers in the state full stop.
The investment of Tesla and its founder (and real-life Tony Stark), Elon Musk, has been substantial. The company has added 3,000 employees in the state since 2013, reopening the Toyota and General Motors joint-venture factory that use to be known as NUMMI in 2009 and constructing a design studio in Los Angeles, all in addition to its Palo Alto headquarters.
