It is possible my GQ was used as a formal carOriginally Posted by aussiemale
OMG!!! Your MQ got wet!!! HAHAHAHAHA
Whoever disagrees with the saying "Might is right" obviously doesn't own a MQ
A quick rub back, some light body repairs , itll be goodyeah Bryan I'm not going back to metal, just a light sand and a respray something easy lol she only gunna be a bush basherjust wanna make her look respectable
Acrylic will react with enamel, but enamel wont react with acrylic, just a little tip
If in doubt and your not sure whats on there, go to a proper paint shop (supercrap only good for name brand stuff) and you can buy like a primer to cover enamel that then the acrylic top coat wont react
If your doin a quick respray , same paint type,usually a quick rub down , fix any inferfections, prime those, but generally a same colour respray doesnt get a full primer coat, just squirt it on , after prep work of course

lol wet yes but the top was off so all the interior is soggy too thats the down side, Mad I think the tail gate is enamel since it blisterd with the last lot of work I did to it will have to some thing there with the primer thans for the tip, but the rest will be done with acrylic
Wow Michelle!
Mate i have to say i had my doubts when you first rolled the MQ out of the paddock and posted the pics, i think i tried to encourage you to rethink your plan and find another project but WOW!! You Go Girl!!! its looking awesome
Well done.

Check out my Toy --> MudRunnerTD's GQ From the Ground Up
The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Thanks, I don't get alot of encouragement (spelling) from the hubby, and do alot by my self when I should have a hand, but it seems to be paying off, I'm happy with the progress no matter who may laugh at me for thinking I have no chance of getting her on the road, but my old pop , I think he would be proud of my stubburness and will to finnish what I started, I can now see the light lol, and can't wait to drive her down the road and hold my head up high as I do.
As you can see from my build progress Michelle, you'll have wait in line to be laughed at LOL. I am at least a year from even thinking about getting it on the road, more like 2. All I've got to work with is one basic socket set, screwdriver set, and a cheapo supercrap grinder (you know..the one that you keep taking back to get a new one under warranty LOL). Have absolute no panel work skills, mech skills..so my build will be fun
