How are ya's all over in the NZ??

Post by shortyGQ »

Hi guys, my name is Will, and live in melbourne, and own a swb GQ patrol. Its got 2'' suspension lift, 2'' body lift, 35'' simex ET2's, braced front diff housing, straight gas on the tb42 motor, stainless steel snorkel and a styleside ute chop. I also just bought a 350 chev, t400 auto gearbox, and twin throttle bodies that i will soon be putting in. Plus i got a hi mount, will be put in when i get a winch bar made up. Plus i rolled my old MQ. I will be getting a 6 point rollcage for this year's VIC WINCH challenge. Looks like a good site, hope you like the photos.

when i first got it a few months ago:
