just take the year off the rego sticker - e.g. 1990 FXGT?

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!

yea we need something that is from factory or from Toyota them self that states the year of the car. i already tried giving them the low volume cert plate that says the date, but the government department didnt except it.

i dont think ae86's have this sort of plate, i have a few ae86/85 and never seen such a plate.

when they import a secondhand car how do they get the production date?
