Ultimate Japanese Mini Truck Full Build Time-lapse
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
After owning my 1992 Honda Acty SDX for almost a year I decided to give it a full rebuild much like I do with my motorcycles. We took this truck all the way down to the bare bones and restored each and every piece. After finding a purple Japanese lighter in the truck I felt it was only right to respray the truck in the most legendary 90's JDM color Midnight Purple 3!
Hope you enjoy the video and find the links below helpful if you are starting your own kei truck journey! (Paid Links) #honda #acty #keitruck

Since the shift pattern is still the same (first being to the left and up) it didn’t feel like that weird of an adjustment to shift with my left hand. The biggest thing I always get mixed up is turn signals and windshield wipers because they are swapped on the column.
