Frequently Asked Questions about Classic Toyota
Kiichiro Toyoda founded Toyota, which was incorporated as Toyota Motor Co., Ltd. on August 28, 1937. The carmaker grew out of an automobile division set up in 1933 inside Toyoda Automatic Loom Works, the loom maker started by his father, Sakichi Toyoda. The new company's Koromo Plant, now called the Honsha Plant, began operating in 1938.
The Toyota name is an altered form of Toyoda, the founding family's name, adopted after a public competition for a new logo in 1936. Toyota's own account gives three reasons: the new spelling has a clearer, voiceless sound in Japanese, it takes eight strokes to write in katakana, a number associated with good fortune, and it marked the growth of a small independent company into a larger corporate enterprise. The earliest vehicles carried a Toyoda emblem.
The first Toyota production car was the Model AA sedan, completed in April 1936 under the original Toyoda name. It followed the Model A1 passenger car prototype of 1935 and the G1 truck that debuted the same year. Toyota's history says the AA was modeled after the De Soto Airflow and used a 3,389 cc inline six-cylinder engine. A total of 1,404 were built.
Toyota began selling vehicles in the United States in 1958, after Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A. was formed on October 31, 1957, with headquarters in a former Rambler dealership in Hollywood, California. First-year sales totaled 288 vehicles, made up of 287 Toyopet Crown sedans and one Land Cruiser. Toyota's own history calls the Toyopet underpowered and overpriced and says its sales were discontinued in 1961. The Corona followed in 1965.
The oldest Land Cruiser is the Toyota Jeep BJ of 1951, a four-wheel-drive vehicle developed for Japan's National Police Reserve. In July 1951 test driver Ichiro Taira drove one to the sixth station on Mount Fuji. Because Jeep was a Willys trademark, Toyota renamed the vehicle Land Cruiser in June 1954, a name credited to technical director Hanji Umehara. The 20 Series followed in 1955 and the 40 Series, home of the FJ40, in 1960.
Sources give Toyota 2000GT production as either 351 or 337 cars. Toyota's UK heritage history accounts for both figures, stating that 351 were produced by the end of production in 1970 and that 337 of those were sold as road cars. The coupe was first shown at the 1965 Tokyo Motor Show, went on sale in Japan in May 1967, and was built for Toyota by Yamaha with a 150-horsepower 2.0-liter twin-cam inline six.
Toyota began building cars in the United States in December 1984 at New United Motor Manufacturing, Inc. (NUMMI) in Fremont, California, a joint venture formed with General Motors that year, starting with the Chevrolet Nova. The first Toyota-badged car, a white Corolla FX16, came off the NUMMI line in 1986. Toyota's wholly owned plant in Georgetown, Kentucky, completed its first car, a Camry four-door sedan, on May 26, 1988.
Toyota became Toyota Motor Corporation in July 1982, when the manufacturing company, Toyota Motor Co., Ltd., merged with Toyota Motor Sales Co., Ltd. The sales company had been separated from the carmaker in 1950. Toyota's history says the two presidents wanted to unite the companies' systems and speed up decision-making. The carmaker itself dated from 1937, when it was spun off from Toyoda Automatic Loom Works.
The 108 Toyota listings on Classic Cars Arena right now are priced from $1,000 to $115,995, with a median asking price of $26,998. These are the prices sellers are asking today, not sale prices, and the figures change as cars are listed and sold.
