It's about time I said Hi!
Well to start off My Names Brendan, I live in Alexandra Victoria and work in possibly the biggest Hardware Store in a country town. I just finished Year12 this year and have been hooked on 4WDing for a while now. I started out with a Toyota 4Runner which I rolled in stupid and unlikely circumstances and decided I'd get myself a Patrol. I used to always come across this forum when I had the 4Runner and ever since I've owned the Maverick I have referred here for information and ideas.
I have always been lucky with the people I grew up around teaching me good habits and work ethic so everything I undertake is to the highest of my quality. I also enjoy fishing, mainly Fly Fishing but I think that will change once I get my hands on a tinnie and really get stuck into Cod fishing.
I do all the work on the Maverick myself as I live with my Mum and Brother and Sister and spend more money on tools than what an average teenager spends on Grog. I don't think there's much more else I can add really so I look forward to meeting some people off the forum sometime in the near future. If I've missed something just ask!

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.
