engineer's certificate

sorry I just found some answers to the Question about Kevin williams, I guess i should have done a better search, but input on the other questions would be appreciated thanks

what state are you in ? I would keep that blue label in the glove box for incase. I didn't know you could do a body lift on a airbag car without a engineers report. I don't think that is over the top at all but you have to ask yourself where has that car been for it to be done up like that? make me wonder if it's been trashed around and bashed?

My 2 cents

Hi Kelvin,

When looking at a truck like that there are two things to consider, I reckon.

1. What Trol said - if it's got all the gear and could go anywhere then it probably has - and what sort of treatment did it get on the way there. Hence the reason a lot of blokes will buy a standard truck and customize it themselves.

2. The complete opposite. Most guys I know that have rigs like the one you've shown look after them better than most people - ie regular servicing, tuning etc etc. as evidenced by the sort of people that frequent this site - the maintanence schedule most keep would border on anal! ;-) As opposed to the soccer mum 4X4. Bog standard - looks straight but might not have had it's oil changed in 30,000k's!

All things considered - if you want what looks to be quite a tough and capable truck (Geez that was hard to say about a Nissan!) without the bother of doing the work yourself then it looks the goods. Personally I reckon the fun's in doing it yourself. Also depends on what you want it for - it may be overkill! At the very least it looks like good fun! haha!

Looks in very good order. If you go ahead with the purchase you could always pull out the 5" lift and stick a 2" lift under it, sell the 35's and drop back to 32's. That would bring it back to a more 'normal ' look.

The price would have to be considered against the cost of change over.

If you decide to buy it remember to have a spare the same as the tyres on it...
The spare in the photo looks quite different..

G,day Kelvin,

As other guys have said, I don,t think this guy put all those bits on just so mum could use it to drive to the s/c and back.
Also he is trying to regain the cost of all the accesories which is usualy not on, you can usualy use accessories as a selling point but not to gain a higher price, though in saying that there are quite a few on that truck, so a little extra is ok, though I think he wants too much.
Personally I would rather go for something like this , knowing it has had an easy life, and put all the extra's on it myself, which is exactly what I did, you will end up with an end cost of around the same, and even if it is a little more it's worth the knowledge that the vehicle hasn't been bounced around the scrub.
