Canadian Patrol GQ build up

[ravscin]

Nice Patrol.

Y60 is one of the toughest. To make her expedition car is very wise indeed.
BTW I imported my Patrol from JAP as well. Actually mine was taken to UK and used in some farm in Wales. Then they've left her with open window in the middle of the field for 1,5 year with the windows wide open. So I actually imported the iron scrap.

If U come to UE take LHD conversion under consideration. Here it cost app 1,3 t$

Man it's been a while!

It's not like I haven't been playing or working on the beast, just got distracted with new projects I guess...
But just to catch up a little

Interior storage at the back:



New LED bar on the bumper and moved the HID's on a roof bar mounted in front of the large roof rack. And a few friends...



Move my air tank in a more protected area, against the frame, built an extra fuel tank, sliders...



Some good LED back up lights


And some switches for all these new lights


And not mine but same truck and cool picture!



I probably won't start new projects, just finish the loose ends as I'm thinking to sell the truck comes summer time. I'm heading to Expo in Flagstaff if anyone's interested to meet up or have a look at the truck. I'm also fairly confident I'll be able to have it imported in the States as I'll have a proper VIN number attached (not the short Japanese one that can't be entered in the system)...

Anyhow, see ya soon maybe!

Cheers
Mr. D

hows that turbo affecting your mpg's so far?

hope you treated laurentiu to some nice sarmale over the holidays.

Hey, he should be the one treating me with Sarmale! I'm better at cooking poutine...

I have absolutely no idea how and if adding a turbo impacted my MPG. The truck runs on free used veggie oil so I never pay attention to fuel consumption but I can tell you it drives waaaaaaay nicer! What I really need to get done is building a proper airbox and custom snorkel, some interior finish and I'll be able to call it a completed project!

Cheers
Mr. D

Awesome Patrol! And I love that system you made for the rear bench/cargo area! Looking great, and a big fan of the mods you've done.
My wishing for a Y60 continues :drool:
