Lexus Conversion Info Required

Good Day All,
What is the correct steps to take when you do a conversion to ensure all your paper work and Vin Plate have the new engine detail on it?

Re: My Hilux Story - The Good, Bad and Rebuild

I decided to make the best of a bad situation. I took the bakkie to a local dent remover to have it looked at and to "fix" any bad welding, joints and to ensure the cab's alignment is correct. When it came back, I treated the entire inside cab with rust converter and rust stop. I sprayed i...

Re: My Hilux Story - The Good, Bad and Rebuild

The Bad: With the decision made to rebuild the axles, I decided the bakkie needed a respray as well. The current beige is fading. Started by removing the doors, back and front windows and all trim pieces. Then started to strip the paint from the bakkie with sanding paper and wire brushes. What a lo...
