    My Intro - PureCaboose

    Never been a Nissan owner (so far).... my list of 4WD's has been:

    Series 1 Landrover, Holden 186 conversion
    60 series petrol auto, stock
    NA Pajero, petrol manual
    Suzuki XL7, petrol, auto
    Jeep XJ Cherokee, petrol auto
    Jeep Wrangler JK, CRD Auto (x2) current vehicles

    I am looking for something simpler and easier to work on than out current CRD Wranglers and we have decided on GQ Patrol, Series 1 petrol, auto.

    At this point, still looking for vehicles and joined the forum to gather information about the vehicles as I have never owned one (yet).

    Greg

    So the deed is done, we are now the proud owners of a 1989 Nissan Patrol GQ Y60 TB42 Auto.

    Yay us.

    It's was sporting a miss when we picked it up, but after I drained out 2 extra litres of oil from the sump it is running a lot better.

    Aside from a alloy front bar and roof rack as well as the electronic ignition upgrade this is a stock truck and great example. Can't wait to start making some repairs/maintenance upgrades to bring it back to 100% working order.
