Would make a great coffee table i reckon. . .
Yeah real spewn i didn't jump on that GQ, would have been perfect. Oh well hopefully one comes up soon. Might be able to work something out if you can find a hole car, after a few bits . . .

Mate. It is a normal part of the (well adjusted) human condition to have feelings of guilt about that which we perceive to be undeserved charity!Quote:

Bit of a nightmare trying to find anything suitable!!!
Yeah its a bit of a bugger. Found one on Gumtree, has heaps of parts including bare block. Not sure if you wanted to head down this path but an option to start a build i guess. .
Just my 2C but reckon a fresh build woundnt be a bad way to go or new crate jobbie would be nice obiously but $$. . . Same with build i guess ($$) ?? . .
I'm not overly keen on buying a second hand block out of a vehicle or building one up is just too much for me at this point mate.
I'm tempted to borrow money and find a good mechanically running patrol and part out everything else on it to pay back some of the loan.
Have you checked out the car auction websites for rolled gq/gu's?
Yeah fair enough, hopefully something comes up soon they seem to turn over reasonably quick. Not a bad way to go hope something good comes along soon . . I'll keep lookn
Thanks mate yep I'm pretty much every few hours checking gumtree, ebay, trading post, pickles and all the auction salvage sites, grays, Facebook, Patrolapart are keeping an eye out, etc.
Have spent a lot of time on overseas sites, etc too.
Anything I've missed feel free to let me know folks. This is going to take some time!
Or start again on a 24V Safari...lol, I've always had a soft spot for Safari's!

If you were spending that sort of money you would be better off with something like this.

Thanks mate, yeah I saw that one, very neat but it would most likely be an NA black top engine which I'm trying to avoid at this point.
I'm ideally after a silver top from 88-93 (Some 94-95 ones are mixtures of rocker covers and internals I think) and then the TD42T from 2000 onwards would be the winner but with my budget most likely looking at a silver top.
Where do you stand on dream catchers?
