Hi all,

I have recently bought my first Patrol, a 2.8l Y60. It has been modified for 38", but currently driving on 35's.
I am not experienced in maintaining a truck like this, so I will be asking a lot of questions in the near future.

Thanks for the welcome messages.

So, I flew across from the west coast to the east coat of Iceland today to pick up the truck, it cost me about USD 4k. As mentioned, the tyres are 35" and they are new. This is my first truck, so I am obviously a total noob, but the truck handles very well on tarmac. There is some rust on the chassis that needs to be fixed and the running boards are coming loose, they were actually bolted to the chassis.

Anyway, here are a few pictures as promised.
