I stopped in at a dealer that imports this model today and asked about the price. I was told they sell them here (in CA) for about $80,000!

I have a 1978 model and I think Bandeirante is the most reliabylit FWD vehicle I've ever seen. I know some others cars, like Land Rover, Nissan, Mitsubish. Those are excellent and comfortable. But Bandeirante is the best, it's strong and I love it.

Hi there from Germany. I own a BJ42 ('Bandeirante') aged 20 with over 270'km. It works very well here in heavy foresting. Since I added two lockers front and rear, nothing is able to stop this bulldog. My Toyo gets me everywhere, anytime.
Greets, Axel.

I have a 2001 Toyota "bandeirante", it is the last year of production here in Brazil, where I live. This last model has a diesel Toyota engine "14 b" with 3700cc, 98 hp@3400 and 22,5 kgf@2200 rpm, 5 manual speed with reduced. It's very reliable and it's your trademark. It makes 10Km/l in average and top speed is 135 Km/hour.

I'm willing to turbocharge my Toyota "Bandeirante" 14B engine. Could you help me with parts specs (turbine, inter cooler...)? Is it necessary a waste gate valve?
Tks

Hi, I think I own the only Bandeirante in France, and most probably in Europe.
I brought it from Brazil in 2006.
Apart the Mercedes OM364 motor, differences are few with the other BJ's. I have recently changed the front bearings and birfields using parts suitable for the local TLC BJ's.
