Hey guys, I have just bought my first GQ and have decided to join this forum...seems I am in the right spot, I bought the GQ because my previous truck was prone to breaking and a bit of a pig in the bush, probably shouldn't mention it here but it was a Toyota Bundera with a 252 chev v6 with no p/s, no a/c...all I can say about it is it was a pig and always breaking...
My GQ...its a 91 model SWB, 4.2 Carby Petrol, its done a few k's but still purrs and looks as though I'll get a few more k's out of the old girl, it also has the p/s I wanted and a/c which is a must living in Rocky...
