Well I have had a few GQ's before and regret selling them. Yes I have an 80 Series still which is a great truck (yes it's true it went much better than I thought it would), but I still miss the gq too.

Since Jan I have been building an extra cab ute. So far its been all body work. I have gone to great lengths to get the body right.

Here's some work at the start of the year

This is it now, well it is all undercoat now ready for top coat so close enough to how it is in the picture. I am looking to get a "factory" ute look. I handmade all the door jams and everything is fully welded and next to no bog.

Anyway I pretty well have everthing to complete it now, TD42 Turbo, front locker, snorkel winch bar, custom fridge for inside the cab etc etc.

It won't be a comp truck, just a capable tourer and a car to do club reces etc in. Maybe the odd boys trip when I can, the missus loves 4wding as much as I do.

Anyway I will have some questions regarding bolt sizes and odd things I need to source. I am hoping to have it going just after Xmas.

Thanks Greg

Surely did. If I wasn't so padantic i probably would have finished it by now.
