looks like one of my mate with an 05 Patrol wants to buy a 80 series Landcruiser for bush bashing for 3k. yet he spent a reasonable amount of money setting up his Patrol to do the same thing, go figure.

Well mick I am a very lucky man and have the GUIV for my daily and outback family tourer and the GQ for the business end of out hobby. There is simply No Way I would attempt what I do in my GQ in the GUIv. Regardless of the GQ once having nice paint, it does not now. And I Care little. Drive it, bounce it, bend it, Use It. That's why I built it. But if I thought about it it probably owes me $40k. I'm ok with that because its already spent and I had it before the GUiV. Could not do it the other way with the same level of budget though. Buying some Junker half done is the way to go. TB42 Carby for a couple of grand. Cheap lift and an auto locker. $5k or less and your having a heap of fun and No Tears.
But! Big But! Your a Farking Giant!!!!!! You need the cheapest GUI you can find. A GQ would feel like driving a Zook for you mate. Be fun but squashy. I never realised ow compact a GQ was until I started living with a GUIV for day to day, get in the GQ and feel the difference big time.
Either way come play mate!!! You will love it!
Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!!
....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!
Check out my Toy -->

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Not true, I have been out with AB and a few of the boys. King lake Toolangi I believe. ImageUploadedByMotorculture1378458830.393500.jpgImageUploadedByMotorculture1378458858.336711.jpgImageUploadedByMotorculture1378458931.631899.jpg
When AB went for a dive.
But you weren't there Cuddles.
Although AB did cut my trip short and suggested a park up and hitch a ride with him.
So next time you wanna open ya trap, better get your facts together first.
