Makes you wish for a F150 or a tractor to work on or something eh? Wide open spaces

Working on a L28 powered MQ Patrol is that easy its not funny.

You could almost fit 2 L28's side by side. Lol.

Sounds good. I'm always sorely tempted to cut the front end off the Navara and set up a bolt on arrangement, like the old effies.

 

[Dave]

A mate had a old Toyota Crown that has the skirts bolted on.

Cant remember if the radiator support was was bolted on.

I am assuming so.
