Hi all!
I’ve always had a great passion for beach 4wding and camping trips, in 2009 I brought my stock GQ Patrol in the hopes of customising it to suit me so that I can get away and enjoy the outdoors as much as possible!
Well I can say that the project is finally complete (well as close as it will ever get, seems there’s always new things to do to cars) and I wanted to a quick write up on my Patrol!
Thanks to all my mates, this is what I have the pleasure of taking offroad!
