I saw potential in this sad little Sambar, it reminded me so much of the panda Trueno AE86 from Initial D. The last registration was even from Ibaraki! It was meant to be, so I imported it and set off to resto-mod it.

Watching these videos takes me back to my youth when we had to fabricate parts all the time. Back then we had the J.C. Whitney and McMaster Carr catalogs, no internet!. Man they had a bunch of unusual adapters and conversion parts and kits. Very much enjoy your content!!

Thanks for sharing. I have a Hijet restoration project underway. I wouldn't have the patience and the energy to strip all of that black paint. My Hijet has a little bit of superficial surface rust in the bed. I'm going to sand it out, prime it, and then "paint" the entire truck, inside and out, with Monstaliner polyurethane bed liner. Just installed a new battery, converting it from the small Japanese battery to the largest North American battery that would fit (35N) with the larger battery post clamps. Still need to make a battery cover. The Hijet had a blown clutch when I imported it. After six weeks, I just received the clutch parts from Japan so I can get the truck on the road. Warmer weather in the spring means the mini truck work should be picking up soon.

Wow, great transformation! Inspiring me to clean up my 93 Sambar, no "custom" paint to remove but my interior is still bearing Japanese dir,t dust and a bit of crud under the seats. Big return on investment of effort.

No heat gun? Set it out on a hot sunny day on some pavement, it'll soften right up. I wish I could find an old janky KEI truck like this to play with. They are getting stupid prices for them post COVID.

They're constantly going out of stock and are currently not on Amazon where I had originally found them. Look for 8mm bore, 10mm od, 8mm long bushings wherever you can find them in stock. I saw them on eBay once or twice. Good luck.

1.can you swap a 1994 kei truck engine to a 2000 or higher? 2. how about the interior are you allowed to swap for a 2020 or newer? 3. does the import law restrict your option of customizing the kei truck?
@GreeceMonkeyz
@GreeceMonkeyz Год назад
Probably differs by state, but here in CT once its registered as a classic you can pretty much do whatever. So pass inspection in stock form first then customize.

You should make a video on how to clean the engine because all these Kei Truck are dirty as well H. The soft scrub bathroom cleaner is a fantastic tip that I use on my wife white minivan.

Just a looooot of scrubbing with soft-scrub. Works so well on these white trucks. Buffs out small scratches too!
