    Default Toyota lexcen traybacks

    I just want to know how many other people out there own one of the toyota lexcen that have been converted into a 1 tonne trayback. would be interesting to know where you got yours and what kind of problems you've encountered (if any)

    Yeah, Nervegas is right...it would've been made by The New One Tonner company...they were a company in Newcastle that used to convert sedans and wagons into dual cab and single cab one tonners. They used to have a website, but they don't seem to anymore

    don't think it was to profitable after holden and fords started bringing 1 tonne traybacks out, i think mine cost something like 30k to convert from lexcen wagon to a trayback
