Looking for the end of the road...
I remember seeing several ARACO stickers on my 80. However I can't say I remember seeing them on my 2004 100. Either way, my 100 is *extremely* well built, I've already proved that much. So ARACO or not doesn't matter to me, still a great product!
Not even under the hood? Perhaps your hood was replaced? What is the date of manufacture of your 2004?
My 04 LC has several ARACO stickers including 1 on the hood.
Care to share where the others are?
Only one I found on my 03'
I miss araco; my 99 had but the 2006 does not 
this is what i have now
sorry pic did not take
thats a port-installed tag for dealer tracking purposes.
most late 100 series rigs were built inhouse by Toyota at the Tahara plant... not a bad place either IMHO
Toyota also built LC's in Venezuela.
My friend, Toyota Venezuela built 40s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s over the years. We never got the 50 series, as we never got the 100 series (but we got the 80s up until 2007). Also they never built Diesel cruisers! or any car for that matter, just their Dyna trucks.
Given our country's problems they aren't operating at 100%. In fact i'd say theyre at 10% production. Hopefully things will change this year!
Very good looking Venezuelan 60!
Didnt know about Araco, learned something today I guess!!

I know AMG makes a big marketing splash on how all their engines are assembled by one person. Yet unlike the Nissan GTR or perhaps the newer Land Cruisers, they don't even make them wear hair nets. I know the Nissan GTR takumis are required to walk through some type of dust chamber dressed to the nines like a surgeon before entry into the assembly room.
Love the details. Thanks.

Bump a 6 year old thread with no tech and nothing about Toyota. Awesome.
I noticed last week that my 2001 LX had an "Araco" sticker under the hood and I freaked out a bit, wondering if Araco was some aftermarket paint/body company and perhaps my car had been in an undocumented wreck. Thank god it's not that, haha.
I thought the same thing with my '99 LX. I thought it looked like a Keystone/LKQ kind of sticker. Did some research and was pleasantly surprised.

I love zombie threads, it's like travelling through time
