    I owe a huge apology to all members

    Hey all,

    I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to all the members of this forum for not being involved and not having the courtesy to explain why.

    Earlier this year I blew up the motor in the GQ(the turbo let go and I burnt a hole through No1 piston) mind you she still did 120 coming home, but not for long.

    So the dilemma, rebuild the motor, truck off the road for a while(not an option) or get another vehicle. So I am no longer a Patrol owner.

    BUT, the Patrol lives on, a good mate of mine rolled his Patrol ute, crushed the cab. He had the motor but not the vehicle, I had the vehicle but not the motor. So a match made in heaven.

    So since then change of job, still in the liquor industry now managing a small bowling club and trying to grow the business.

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank all and sundry from AB, to all the mods and the members, this is a great forum and I hope that as I no longer own a Troll if I get a chance I can come back and visit from time to time.

    Thank you again and regards

    Mark(MC97GQ)
    Proud former owner of a 1997 White GQ TD42 Patrol Cab Chassis with an after market turbo, now with over half a million k's and still going strong, that's had a heart transplant and now not owned by me

    You probably know more about patrols than I ever will, so feel free to contribute.

    Take care out there.
