New guy in SoCal to the forum but not to Toyota or rocks

[Empire Fabrication]

Hi I'm Sean Ramáge and I have some toys. I live in Simi Valley Ca. ,(but from Visalia ca) And have a shop there that I have ha open for the last 4 yrs., but time are slow so I work at Hollywood Hot Rods as the lead sheet metal guy.  For the last 9 yr I have had a 88 samurai the is fully built. I would roll it about once a yr.  but in the last 5 yrs I need a Toyota guy. I have a 1970 Toyota lolux that is bagged,chop,shorten,shaved. Then I have a 92 pickup 2wd that is lowered that I converted to RHD and I do auto-x with it. The build to these are one ToyotaMinis.com I'm (TheLolux) on there.
Well let get to the 4wds. There the samurai witch is lock f/r and has a 6.4 tcase and a 1.6 16v tracker motor swap in it. It's had 2 diff. cage but I have some good rolls. One of witch I have to cut the back of the body off. An well as it gose I only got 2 seats and now I have a kid and one more on the way. TIME for a new crawler!! I put the word out to my customers and I scored big!!!!!
One of my customer friend has had a built 84 runner seating in his back yrd for the last 9yrs. He GIVE it to me in trade, and all I had to do was CUT the rear bumper off and weld it on his 85 yota. The body was beat and was roll, but had a ton of good parts! So I call my buddy Joel who lives in Visalia (and is on here but I don't know his name). He is building a runner too, and just got a parts runner. So he gave me great 87 body for FREE!! Then it get better. My borther inlaw has a 92 4wd with a frash rebuilt motor with 6k on it, that a tree fell on and crush the cab. So he's giving me the truck for FREE.
So as of now. I have swap body's and starting to get some new parts
Here the lolux

Here the CYN YOTA

And the runners








Who do I talk to to fix my s/n. I hit ER at the same time. It's need to be Empire Fabrication not EmpireR
