This is an excellent color combo and period correct look. Overall, this vehicle is an outstanding, unmolested representation of the iconic and rare Land Cruiser hardtop convertible. The KZJ73 was only built for the European market for 3 years, making it treasured and hard to find. We enjoy driving this model due to the coil springs (in comparison to the leaf springs on the B and HZJ) and engine with lots of pep.This 1993 Toyota Land Cruiser KZJ73 is a left-hand-drive European-spec model sold new in Southern France on September 9, 1993. Car Cave purchased this beautiful Red Pearl KZJ73 from Monsieur Julien, located in Montferrand, France. Vitrolles is part of the drier region of Southern France, on the same latitude as Spain and Italy, and that dry climate helped maintain this vehicle.Europe was the only market lucky enough to receive the left-hand-drive, coil-sprung KZJ73 equipped with the 1KZ-T engine?our favorite 70 Series platform. The 1KZ-T (as opposed to the 1KZ-TE) features the sought-after mechanical injection pump and was built without an EGR valve?a major advantage when tuning and for keeping exhaust gas temperatures down.Upgrades and Features:Air ConditioningRemovable FRP Hard Top3.0L 1KZ Turbo Diesel5-Speed ManualLimited Slip Rear DifferentialSuspension Front Seats31x10.50R15 BF Goodrich All Terrain Tires6-Spoke Chrome Factory Toyota WheelsElectric Push-Button Front HubsElectric Push-Button 4WDFactory Dual BatteriesRear Tire Carrier with SpareRunning BoardsTilt Steering WheelRear DefrostRear WiperFloor-Shift Hi/Low Transfer CaseAltimeterTilt MeterPower WindowsPower LocksSony CD PlayerRear Barn DoorsMud FlapsTrailer HitchRecent maintenance includes a timing belt completed by the previous owner. Car Cave did an extensive list of maintenance including full oil and filter service, new air and fuel filters, a replacement lower oil pan gasket, and new gaskets and seals for the valve cover, turbo, and differentials. The vehicle also received a new alternator. The braking system was thoroughly serviced with a new master cylinder, brake fluid flush, new pads, hardware, and hoses all around, rear drums, and a parking brake overhaul. The clutch system was bled, and the drivetrain received a full inspection and service.Additional improvements included a new heater control knob, alignment, tire balancing, and fresh fluids throughout. The Land Cruiser also received a full detail and exterior refresh, including a five-stage paint correction, engine bay detail, interior deep clean, and freshly repainted fender flares. The result is a well-sorted and dialed-in KZJ73 that's ready for road or trail with a clean bill of health and recent service totaling over $7,100.A 3.0L turbo diesel powers this Land Cruiser, mated to a five-speed manual transmission and a two-speed transfer case. The smooth-running, ultra-reliable Toyota 1KZ-T is a 2,982cc single overhead cam, indirect injection turbo diesel. The timing belt has been replaced recently. The front hubs are factory push button activated, with push-button 4WD high range and a floor-shifted transfer case for low-range situations. This Cruiser is finished in its original factory Medium Red Pearl, with no signs of previous paintwork. The fiberglass removable FRP top is shown in a contrasting original white.Aftermarket upgrades on this Land Cruiser are minimal, limited to a Sony CD Player and a trailer ball in the rear?which is just fine by us, as the KZJ73 drives exceptionally well in stock form both on and off-road. Underneath the FRP top is a factory-integrated roll cage, allowing rear passengers to enjoy the safety of three-point seatbelts. The grey carpets and Grey Moon Mist cloth interior are both original and in great condition. The driver's seat does have a tear on the bottom cushion, but we did not want to repair it and tamper with the original upholstery.Factory options include power locks, power steering, a center console, power windows, tilt steering wheel, rear barn doors, rear wiper, digital clock, and rear defrost. The original factory Toyota altimeter and inclinometer are still present. The vehicle is currently fitted with BF Goodrich All Terrain 31x10.50R15 tires mounted on the factory 15' chrome wheels.The removable top and integrated roll cage make this a versatile platform, and several aftermarket suppliers offer soft top kits to further customize this vehicle. The windshield also folds down onto the hood?perfect for a throwback overlanding experience with the wind in your face. Car Cave is extremely familiar with 70 Series Land Cruisers and can modify them to suit any vision.Body Data Plate Information:Model: KZJ73LV MEXWC/TR/A/TM: 3H4 FA10 G975 R150FYear: 1993-1996Sales Region: EuropeFrame: KZJ73Grade: LXBody: HTModel: Land Cruiser 70Engine: 1KZ-TDriver's Position: LHDFuel Induction: DieselColor Code: 3H4 Medium Red PearlTrim Code: FA10 Fabric Grey Moon MistAxle Code: G975 - 8' Limited Slip, 4.222:1 RatioTransmission Code: R150 - Manual 5-SpeedAt Car Cave, we believe that a driven vehicle is a healthy vehicle, and some vehicles may have an addition to their mileage while in our care.
