Hey Guys

[WintonLad]

Hey guys,
Been a onlooker to this forum many times and its helped me out before so i thought i might join up and see if i cant repay the favour,
Cheers and thanks for having me

[WintonLad]

That was a pretty bad intro so here goes,
I drive a 1991 td42 wagon, pretty standard at the moment but I bought it for the sole purpose of a dual cab conversion, doing it myself so that should be coming up soon.
This is my second GQ, before i had a ute but the idea of a family sort of puts an end to that.
I'm a diesel fitter from up in Townsville, North Queensland, and am a keen pig hunter in my spare time.
Cheers

Hi and welcome to the forum heaps of tips and GQ info here,
are you just doing a flat sheet across the back? I saw one once where guy used pipe
for a rounded look, or you could move "D" pillar forward but a PITB.
Anyway I have soft spots for full size dual cabs.
jump in and enjoy.

[Punderhead]

Welcome to the forum mate. Post some pics up of the chop. I'm midway through mine, was planning to go dual cab but I changed my mind to an extra cab.

Style side or tray back?

Cheers!
