our car

Ok people reg was cancelled because car isn't fit or will ever be fit to be on the road. As for the quarter chop, that I was doing myself. As stated before in previous posts i'm not selling the car, all the running gear and other bits will be kept and cleaned painted etc by me. I'm looking for a shell and chassis so I can get it going, I'm not sure if it will be a GU or GQ, depends on how much they are. I did not see the point of keeping the reg on as it is not wise to drive it anymore, it has been looked at by a few people now and everybody had the same conclusion. If you have an issue or something to say I'm more than happy to listen but don't go behind my back and say things. I hope your questions have been sorted, if not post or pm me.

Yea you haven't had the best of runs, but you'll get there. George has the light pole now, ready to bolt to a shiny New gu body..

Quick q- what ratio diff do you have?

Yeah it is and its hard to get up and look at it every f##king day

I don't think anybody would be talking behind your back.
You have had a rotten run with this car and hopefully you will find a good body cheap enough to fit the good bits to.
Best of luck with your search.

Damn it Healy!! That sux mate! Would have been a tough decision mate. Good call though.

Give Halls4x4 wreckers a call mate if your looking to do a cab swap? But are you looking to swap your cab onto something yeah? Tough gig mate. Damn it, the Dog who sold it to you will Rot in Hell mate.

If you decide to strip the car you will make a few $1000 in bits and pieces mate. Probably $4 or $5000 to be honest but that would be it. At least it would be some coin back though then scrap whatever is left.

Pm me if you need a hand mate, I'd be listing it on MudRhino with a parts list if you decide to strip it for sure. It's local Vic and plenty of guys around your area looking for bits.

Good luck bloke.

Damn it!

Could also give "Smart Parts" in Ballarat a buzz about a another shell.

That is no good Healy. Surely there's gotta be someone who's got a 3lt grenade chassis going cheap?

I want my sticker back!!!!!!


But seriously that's sux mate. I hope you find another chassis or donor vehicle soon. You know theres plenty of guys here willing to help any future endeavours

Have I missed something Healy? Why is it not fit for the road, Won't it pass rego again or is it just unsafe to drive?

Do you use face ache Healy?, there is a page dedicated to people selling and wrecking Patrols.

Never the less it does suck seeing something sitting in your driveway every day that you can't use, it was like that for me looking at the dirt bike and I feel so much better now that it is gone :).......still get the itch when I hear someone ride pass though :(

Hay mate, no pressure to strip as you don't know what your doing yourself yet, but if you do part out I call dibs on those 4.3 diffs... Also pending on funds at the time..

Healy - bugger did you ever get your pinkies on the mongrel who sold you the car - I still think it was a ex flood car.

Man I am so sorry to hear this, can't believe the bad luck you and your family have had on this rig. If I had the funds I would love to buy some things off you (if you end up wrecking) but unfortunately don't have the cash ATM.

you should goto vic roads and report the dodgy mechanic who gave the last road worthy as clearly it shouldnt have been registerable!

have you considered doing a rear quarter chop? would that eliminate all the rust in the rear?

I was doing a quarter chop and then found the problem
