Unless its had a conversion of course.

But its like
HJ60
BJ70

First letter is engine type, second letter is chassis country of origin (Japan)

Then the numbers after that denote body series.

I think the second letter thing being country of origin is a myth; all landcruisers are *J##, but say hiluxes for example are still japanese but are all N for the model. I think it's random.

I have read it on a few websites, but I never beleived it, and recently drove a HZJ78 but it was constructed in Taiwan :?
