Neat looking Unit Mate.
Just have to change the Bullbar

Hi mate - had me scared there for a moment - thought you'd turned to the darkside with the Q! :jawdrop: Glad to see you've still got the GU mate! But seriously - looks like a great acquisition mate!

Jas

Finally seen the light, about time...LOL

Well everyone knows I'm a genius!, but not evil unless someone punches me in the neck..then I unleash my evil powers...bwahahahahah

Seriously though mate, I will turn it into something but what I don't know yet, might even sell it if need be. I just bought it because I was bored and need a little project..lol

Yep that's on the cards

.........on the move

Read the first few words and thought WTF, Ahh he's not that pickled after all.
Nice pick up Kris, good lookin unit with some alright goodies, well done mate, now for the payout to be spent hahahahahah, lookin forward to see the build thread.


TAPPN OUT

Had me worried there for a second mate.

I thought you had turned and gone low tech, you know blueprints that were stored on Noah's Ark low tech.....LOL

You could always improve those photo's by showing your GU driving over the top of it.........hehehehe

lmfao..........

nice looking buy. Well done. should be a fun little project

Hey mate,

About time you hardened up and got a capable truck instead of that show pony you have been driving.

Now you will be able to appreciate what a real four wheel drive can do.(Dons flame suit in preparation).

So when do we get the "Nissheads GQ build from the ground up", you will also have to change your sig so it's more like Mudrunners.

Seriously though Kris, nice score mate.

Mark

Haha, thanks boys. I'm real happy with the car(not a truck like the GU). I'm not sure it will be a monster like Darrens but if I don't sell it and get a job it might be pretty tough eventually.

It's so clean and tidy I'm considering keeping it for my boys but they have another 10 year's to go

.........on the move

So what your really saying nisshead is that a large number of people on this forum are bored and need a project ? hmmm .....

Haha, not really. It's just I haven't got a job and I'm bored during the day so it might give me something to do for a day or two...lol
I haven't git the money to throw into it yet

Bwahahahahaha, I wanna press thanks but can't on tappa....fing classic

.........on the move

Very nice pick up mate. Doesn't look like it's ever seen a dirt road!

So Kris did you say you were coming down on your own?? if so bring the GQ it will be a laugh.... even at stock height we can just drag it over everything!!!!!

Bloody tidy unit that's for sure.

If you need a project do it up hard and organise this years forum meet up

+1

That bar reminds me of the old stackhats but for patrols. Looks shocking & doesn't really protect you anyway...

First things first, chop the bottom off that bullbar.

Don't stroke it, TAP it!!!!.....

Well done Kris..............the first step to the LIGHT SIDE mate, I did it and have never looked back..get rid of the Tupperware now and go for it.

Hahahaha the plastic fantastic :eek::eek:

Don't stroke it, TAP it!!!!.....

My young fella sais to me yesterday..."dad you won't be able to go to the forum meetups any more."
I said why mate, he sais " well its got a ford badge on it and the forum is for patrols"
So I explained to him the vehicle rebadging thing and that it is a patrol with a ford badge on it.

Few hours later he was asking me if I was going to the wreckers to get a Nissan patrol badge as the ford one looks crap....lolololo

Got to love the youngens.

.........on the move

It's pretty damn clean. Love the sunroof

I'm with your son, needs the right badge :) Neat little pickup Kris. I guess Thelma will handle parking along side.

I am expecting this to have a minimum of two turbos, 6" lift and 38s by the meet next week.

Don't forget the lockers, winch bar, winch, spotties, sliders, reduction gear and full superior setup...wouldn't have it any other way;)

So Kris,

Now the million dollar question was it a bargain or not,

If you don't mind me and probably half the forum asking, what did it set you back?

Mark

The title should be "Nissheads real truck is here"


Slap N Tap ;)

Still did not answer my question mate.... will you bring it next week????
