Hey Everyone!

[gotkeith]

Hey gang,

Well - i'm new to these forums and also owning a Patrol.

recently Purchased a 1975 model Short wheel based patrol, with engineered 6cyl. And i came on here seeking some more information on it!

What is the actual model name of it?
Anyone got any info on it?
Are parts hard to find ( there are a few i'm after )

Any info would be really appreciated. See attached for pics!

Cheers

Gday mate theyre a good friendly mob here full of helpful useful info welcome aboard

[gotkeith]

Thanks guys - great to be a part of it!
I actually bought it off a mate of mine and it's in good nick, but i'm modyifying a couple of things to make it an everyday cruiser.
Attached is a pic of it with stickers off - repainted doors, and without the lid on. Excuse the random lady in the picture!
Next to come is suspension, redo the diffs, tunes the engine and some spotties!

Well - i should know the answer to this but i know it's not the original motor. I'll have to have a look at the papers. I know it's a straight 6 - with 3 awesome gears ( i'd kill for a fourth! )

If it's an SD33 you can get a four speed box for it, I have a voice in my head saying Cory mentioned % spd not bolt pattern?
