Decisions
Well as most of you know we have our first child on the way. Now I would like a family 4wd.
I have been looking and can get early gu TI patrols for less than 12k with around 200k on them so they have all the fruit (leather, locker, sunroof etc etc). Now I also have a TD42T sitting in my yard. I guess I kind of need a push but I think I could make quite a good vehicle with what I have available.
Thoughts??

Leather is easy to clean though.

Yeah engine mounts need to be rewelded but I think with the 4.5 you can utilize the existing.

I'm assuming this vehicle will be mostly driven by your better half mate?

A 2005 GUIV would be an awesome car for the transplant. The leather will be good for kids although I have fitted a Black Duck rear seat cover and it is doing a great job.

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.

How's the serenity
What YOU want and your partner want could be very different mate . Have you discussed it with her first ? after all if its gunna be the family rig then both of you have to be happy with the choice , or do you have another vehicle in the mix .
The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .
