Keiyo MK2 Pickups

[Sigmania]

According to the seller, Keiyo has already gone out of business at this time.

How old is the photo?

The pic is from Google Maps, so it was likely several years old when I made the screenshot in 2020. It could be older than 2014, because I could also take a screenshot of the abandoned Chushin factory in Azumino which was demolished in (I think) 2014.

Edit: I just checked and streetview data for 3228 Misatomeisei, Azumino is still from 2012, while the Keiyo location was scanned last in 2022 (still looks the same tho). Anyone in need of a French bed?

Edit #2: Of course it's also possible that the Duns & Bradstreet adress entry for Keiyo K.K. is bogus (the description seemed to fit well though).

I'm sorry, but I don't know the details.

I was just pointing out that you had seen that they had gone out of business. Was wondering if the photo was after they closed up shop. Think HJS addressed it.

I think the seller's pic was after they closed up shop.

One thing we need to keep in mind.
I think KEIYO has been out of business. "Yuta by Keiyo" pickups are now not seen in the Japanese market.

But!

Bacchus and Momose are still using YUTA pickups. What can be guessed from this is that KEIYO's corporation has been out of business, but the fact that a pickup builder named Yuta continues to make pickups in response to Mr. Momose and others.
I will ask the Bacchus's provider.
