Just for the record. I don't delete comments, but I had to delete this video 3 times and re-upload due to copyright nonsense... Not having my precious 5 cents of ad revenue completely robbed by 5 seconds of song...
You must really love old Patrols. That is going to be a massive project, and at the end you'll have an old Patrol! Still, I can't talk. I've spent stupid amounts of time restoring Series Land Rovers, and at the end all I had was an old Land Rover.
I simply like making things that haven't been done before where the limiting factor is my own ability. I'm not sadistic enough to touch a Land Rover though... Owning a P38 for a year was enough.
the resell value for a "old" patrol is alot higher than most "old" land rovers on the Australian market, alot more people on the Aussie market interested in a old patrol than a old land rover of the same value because of the popularity. sure landrovers have all this glorius tech mechanical or silicon but a popular 4wdriver on RU-vid like 4WD24/7 has a patrol and goes places? wow they must be good. same goes with land cruisers. ive seen a old GU patrol stock as a rock with a TB48 motor in it go for $30k and its a 2004 model.
I have a shorty, Son must have been influenced as he now has a shorty. Went from petrol auto to Kettle manual project with his. Lol on the lifting a shorty on hoist comments. Had to take spare wheel off when engine out as the 1m spread on hoist arms is kinda scary. Enjoying your videos so had to subscribe!
I'll admit. It may have caught me off guard. The weight distribution between the bonnet being closed and open was enough to set it off. Thanks for the sub!
Thanks David. Sometimes I'll make shorts that are so obviously wrong it's funny for me (see one about wheel bearings). Everyone thought it was a serious video so I ditched it
That’s a good old Patrol excellent platform for you drug induced project lol 😂 and it’s good to see your using spanners instead of trying to undo 20 plus year old bolts and nuts and not 12V rattle gun your always a good laugh cheers
