Advice needed on 1989 Nissan Patrol

[Robbie_p]

Hi All,

A friend of mine is looking to purchase a Patrol so we can have a bit "fun" on the weekends.

Below is are the details and some pics attached. The only concern I has was that there was no RWC, which I'm sure will be required if purchasing the vehicle.

Any advice, concerns or things to look out for would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Robbie

Needs new windscreen as has a crack, and need a new lpg instrument as I am just working out how much lpg I have with my kms.
No real rust has rust around slider window but I have a spare one to go with it. Other than that it drives and runs good, used as my daily.

Spmetimes they use the Aux fuel gauge when you switch to gas.
thats what they did with my dual fuel 4x4. try to aviod those gauges with the lights
Check underneath for signs of off road use, check front wheel bearing.
made even spend some money and get a 4x4 shop to go over it for you.
a bit of paint on the bull bar will make it look a treat
