Francisco from Portugal

[Francisco Costa]

Hello everybody.
My name is Francisco and I'm from Portugal.
I recently bought a 1987 Land Cruiser BJ 73 with about 414000kms.
The Land needs a lot of care, and has some parts missing from the interior, however it is fully functional and has already been able to go for a few rides.
The objective is to place it close to the original and in good condition to take to off roads with the family.
I don't have any experience in 4X4 vehicles but I'm passionate about Toyota, so the choice was obvious.
I hope to learn a lot in this forum and if possible to find sites on the internet where I can look for parts for my car.
Here's a picture of my BJ on his first hike up the hill.

Welcome Francisco,
We live in eastern Andalucia and there are a couple of us here who occasionally get the chance to off road in the Tabernas and Baza areas. So maybe one day we can meet and run some trails.

Regards,

Rodger

Welcome Francisco,
Great looking Land Cruiser! How's the engine doing?
I've got a 1988 Salvador Caetano BJ73 which I've been slowly working on.
Looking forward to hearing more about your 73 and what your plans are for it.
Regards,
Mike
