Patrol in need of TLC....

[REDrum]

...and a big budget.....

Saw this FS on the streets of Miami Beach last week. Pretty neat old RHD Patrol, but needs A LOT of love. Could be a fun project or utter hell to get parts. Love the "mad max" style front bumper.

Holy crap! :Wow1:

I am pretty sure this was for sale not long after it was imported from Australia. This was about 3-4yrs ago. It looked to be in good order with no rust then and they wanted $10k or more for it. Now it looks like it is not even worth $1000.

Geez life near the coast is hard on trucks!

Yup, I knew I had seen this before.

Like I say 3-4yrs ago at most it looked like that and the price tag was $10k. IIRC, it has a non-turbo SD33 in it. Sure looks beat down compared to the pictures from a few years ago.

Thats funny and sad... Simply neglected. While the salty air does accelerate rust, for it to get that rusty in 4 years mean the owner never washed it and probably ran it on the beach incessantly...
