Description
1978 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER BJ 40
French title
Chassis n° BJ40 26469
• Comprehensive restoration by Teseven Toyota Classic
• Advantageous model optimizations and numerous accessories
• A showcase for unique French know-how
Through this incredible example, the Teseven Toyota Classic workshops are paying tribute to the 70 years of the Land Cruiser. This BJ 40 is undoubtedly the most beautiful of examples currently on the market, thanks to unique know-how developed in France over the past 15 years. Registered on December 8, 1978, it has just benefited from a very comprehensive restoration in mechanics, upholstery and bodywork. It sports a beautiful "capri blue" color and benefits from a dedicated covering, logo and number plate as well as numerous accessories with Facom and Motul as partners.
It is equipped with a gallery on which there is a folding roof tent, 4 long-range headlamps and an original Toyota mechanical winch. Each option can be completely dismantled to bring it back to its original shape.
Some improvements have also been made for safety, such as 3-point belts, power steering, Koni shocks and modern tires.
A photo report available on request will detail the quality of the work done. In order to pay tribute to this icon of adventure, Teseven Toyota Classic has chosen only 7 numbered models in a 70th anniversary limited edition (1951-2021). This BJ40 is the first one. Additionally, Teseven offers the future purchaser a one-day training course in off-roading and numerous introductions to the maintenance of the mechanicals of this vehicle. This BJ 40 is a superb example presented at a more than attractive estimate, a unique opportunity to seize urgently.
The auction of this lot will take place on Friday 18 March 2022.
