Anyone planning a caravan from the puget sound area on Friday? And why the f*ck are all the shows the same damn weekend???

Spotted this truck in Friday Harbor on San Juan Island.

I'm pretty sure that is the same one. Does that 510 live in the Puyallup? I have seen it at the same house several times now.

I saw a multicolored 510 in Puyallup on Pioneer near Maplewood Elemantary. Anybody know who it is? I am also in Puyallup near PHS. We should meet up some time. Steve

Finally weighed the 510 and its pretty heavy compared to what everyone else is claiming. I used a truck scale so not sure how accurate. 2 Door VG30DE 200zx front brakes (I think) Bolt-in rollbar and rear seat 100% full tank of gas 2520 lbs

I did end up getting the brakes sorted out, although I am using an inappropriate master cylinder. The wheel cylinders - maybe I just lucked out because I didn't specify anything other than the year of my patrol and I got replacements that matched the ones that came out. For the two circuit master - is that something that came on later year patrols? If you can get one of those from Colombia I am very interested. The one I have makes me nervous.

RMP&O, You seem to know a shitload about patrols. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. In your opinion, which engine is superior in the 160 - P40 or SD33T? I actually started getting into and researching patrols when I saw a scout with an SD33 at a random carshow. I thought it was super cool so I went on the internet but ultimately got infatuated with G60s. I definitely want to keep my my G60s but I'm always looking to add more stuff to the garage.

Sweet. I am now really interested in 160s, I think they look badass. Did they come as both RHD and LHD?

This looks like an awesome build. Where did you get your Y60 patrol? Did you import it yourself?

Thank you ratpatrol66 for coming through with leaf springs for the low, low cost of beer. Seriously helped me out and now I can drive the patrol this weekend for camping!

I have two cats that love to hang around in the backyard and garage and get into things. They usually help me out when I do any work on one of the vehicles. Stella inspecting the patrol engine bay Stella and Mercury chilling out

It definitely would have been cleaner to paint it red but I just hate red as a color on vehicles.

Haha, it does look good in pictures. There are definitely some sketchy areas though.
