Gday all,
Just joined up a week ago after buying a new project family wagon...This time I decided to go Nissan as I have always like the old Diesel patrols.
With a little luck Nissans 1990 TD42 GQ Patrol has landed in my driveway for a steal so its off to the research department for me and into the shop for the old girl. It only has 250,000kms on the clock and is in immaculate condition. Everything works except for the Odometer which only just stopped and seems to be a fairly basic fix. Cant find any rust except for on spot that has gone through on the rear top corner. Its only a pin hole that a bit of clever welding will fix.
The chassis is clean and no sign of decay on the front curves under the foot wells...suspension is all original except for the shocks so I will be giving her a rebuild and lift for its 27th Birthday. Found the Cable disconnect for the rear sway bar...First time I have encountered one of these...its all in working order.
I am installing Central locking and a remote immobiliser to give it a bit more appeal as the door locking barrels are a bit worn out so that is now on the cards.
And now for the first pics of the new rig...
