GQ Styleside Ute

[bobw]

Just thought I'd put this up, because there don't seem to be many around. I've had this one since 1990. Pretty stock standard. NA TD42. Ridepro leafs and dampers (which made a lot of difference in comfort and handling). Recaro seat. (Best thing I ever did). And lots and lots of maintenance over the years. I've never done much extreme stuff, but it has covered many thousands of k's of dirt tracks. Mainly in the Victorian and NSW High Country. All in all a very reliable and capable vehicle.

Wow never seen one before I like!


Tap, Tap.......Who's there?

[taslucas]

Looks nice mate. Ive never seen one before either. I wonder, can you buy the trays very easily?

[MC97GQ]

Mate with the exception of the Snorkel and bull bar, that would have to be the most factory original truck I've ever seen.

I know the parts manual shows a ute back, but it's the first time I've ever laid eyes on one.

Nice truck and welcome to the forum.

Very nice mate, look after that one as said above you don't see them around much...Love it!

I don't think they are available any more. Even in the late 90's, Spare Parts told me that they were only available as Left side, Right side, Floor, Tailgate and the bar over the back of the cab. That bar was around $700 back then and the sides were $1200 each from memory. So pretty expensive to put one together. Lucky I already had one.
I also have the unused rear bar and step somewhere. Will put a pic later on. It wouldn't fit with the Hayman Reese towbar.

Great looking UTE, don't see many well backs these days.
You may find the KIA tray may fit if you want to try .

So I'm guessing this is geniune Nissan and not something somebody has made? Looks awesome, never seen or even heard of it before but I like it!

[MQ MAD]

This style were avaliable in the MQ/MK range also
Id say over the years the tubs have rusted out or got seriously damaged and replaced with a tray, hence why there aint many around
A bloke in town has the rear tub of one as a trailer, as he was given it,rare but not desirable

Nice looking none the less, but ill have a tray thanks

[kond]

Love the style side never seen one before

Was browsing thro google images and saw your ute. Beautiful condition. A guy here is trying to sell on to me. Is this similar?
