Tim (Finly owner) is a keen MK owner, and I've seen plenty of other new members with MQ/MK Patrols.
Tony
Mk, wagon, SD33T, 5spd, 16" wheels, stock, needs some TLC which he is getting very slowly.

Tim
Thanks for the links Tim,
The Turbo and motor will be comin from the shorty here
Just a straight forward engine and box swap
Just have to finish the shed when the rain goes elsewhere,then wheel the ute in for new heart surgery
Should make the ute boogie
We have a 1985 MK... Hubby and my Father In Law call it the Taliban Issue as it has the higher roof! LOL. It's still going strong and will look mickey mouse after it gets a paint job! Just got the sun roof working again so we are happy! Although it would have been nice to have it on our trip up to Qld that we just made!

i have an mq cab chassis sd33 4 speed. love it cant beat the old veichles strong as. well except the axles anyway but will eventually get a diff upgrade.
Axle breaking after 30 years of abuse
I wouldnt think thats to bad
yep it has done good. changed the diff for the one i bought from finly and its mobile again. ready for more abuse.
I'm roll'n in a '86 SWB MQ 12v SD33 non turbo 5spd factory air, factory alloy bullbar, factory alloy sun visor, and factory alloy roof racks
And i finaly took it's fibreglass back off on the weekend for the first time ever! and it was soooo COOL it changed the whole look of it
Now all i need some sort of tarp to coverup the back
I have seen soft tops and they look awesome with sloping back!Quote:

Ive seen the rear covered in a tarp sort of thing
And a type of roll up rear wall behind the seats
They do look alright without the canopy
Im sure they can be regoed as a ute ???
Depending on which state your in ???
It looked realy cool and changed the total look of it, Its always been a bit of a pig/basher and has had a hard but always serviced life, But take the back off and WOW do they look different,
As for rego, its plated to seat 5 and it is technicly a "Soft Top" that is removable so down here in mexico (VIC) lol it will be alright, The only thing is keeping all my half tanked mates from ruining peoples weekends by hang'n out the sides..lol
I wish i had have taken the back of it 12yrs ago when my father first bought 'er

Everything pretty much original on there, as far as I know. 5sp, aircon (no longer working....but really did well!!!), side steps, removed the rear tyre carrier, but still have it. Maybe back on one day?
Anyway, through this forum I found out I have an MK, not an MQ :) I had no idea.................. Tim, we really have similar trucks right?
OATH, we will be taking pick on Sunday for sure, now don't go polishing yours too much either!
Tim
You will be pleasantly surprised. Will never outdo yours..... I am almost ashamed coming over the way she looks at the moment.
I think her ancient spirit must have thrown me this forum, cos otherwise she would possibly not have gotten the renewed attention.
Looks like she gets another chance for the future. Don't go shakin your head or make funny remarks on Sunday tho....she will do something....I just know!!!!
Don't fret, you haven't seen Finlys' unloved touch!
Oh 2 red rocket MKs in the one spot
Dont leave them alone to long
There mite be a SWB MK one morning
Never know what might happen with a little nudge!Quote:

Tim,
Ya know IF you add a Holden to the graveyard its not counted as "add 1" its counted as "-1"
IF its another nissan(datsun) its only referred to the grave yard , when its on its last legs
Graveyard here is last resort before the scrappers
MK LWB patrol with a l28 in Melton Vic.
In the process of geting the bits together to convert to a rb30.
Outstanding bits - need Deiesl radiato, and fan belts and idler pully.
HAve gq rb30 - note sure if I will get it on the road with the carby setup, or install the vl fuel injection setup.
still dont not got no piccies where is the piccies??????????????????Quote:

'82 MQ Smurf edition. Bright blue paint, blue seats, dash, carpet and door trims. Even the bullbar was bright blue! (Semi-gloss black now though)
A/C is awesome. And having a tailgate instead of barn doors is handy.
Don't tease us, where are the photo's of smurf?Quote:
