Great pictures Ehsan! As others here have said, I am simply amazed at what your craftsmen are able to make. I would love to see what you could make with some milling machines and presses

Ehsan,
The paint on that blue LC looks very nice, how do you prepare the metal for spraying and what paint do you spray it with?

Jack stands on a dirt floor!!!, really bad idea jack stands need to be on concrete and have lots of weight on them to be safe.
How about we send them some nice clean six by six timbers thats what you want on uneven or soft ground.
I agree the bricks are not great but there alot better than a jack stand on that surface
Just my 0.02 cents
Btw I had a car fall on me using jack stands. The car was stripped down to nothing so no weight to stabilize the jack stands and the positive side, I wasn't injured to bad ( the front end that fell on me probably only weighed about 150Lbs!!
Little advice: Put your vehicle on whatever and before going under push really hard on both ends to make sure it won't move!!

I dunno....those fender flares look mighty close to the LV's rear fenders
Can I get a FJ40 from you? Save me all the time and $$ doing it myself?
Best wishes!

A wonderful glimpse into your country and its people. It appears
the Landcruisers are put to hard use there out of necessity.
Great that they can be kept on the road and functional.
Thanks for your pics and explainations.
