but in saying wat i said i am going to get my ute re engeernired after i finish this part of the biuld so as to cover my ass. ie worst situation have an acco sum1 dies insurance will try to get outer paying as much as they can so if they prove it wasnt road legal look out. best bet do everything you need/wnt2 then get it engeerneried. only costed me $350 to get it done then $200 for re engerniering. + is gr8 to shut the cops up wit an engeenerirs cert lol.

79 model hilux's came like this from factory, so i dont see much of a problem. just use all the parts you can from the 79 and make it look as standed as possible.
