60Patrol

Back again! for the 2025 60 patrol trip :auto-driving: With ideas circling for months and everyone keen on a trip in 2025 the boys were buzzing with excitement to catch up again and hit the tracks. 2025 was supposed to be the year of 2 60 trips, but unfortunately the second never happened. G60michae...

Oh! I forgot to mention if anyone would like to see video footage of this trip, head on over to YouTube and search for "G60 patrol garage"
That's Micks channel, click on the "video" tab and a whole bunch of episodes should come up.

cheers, RED DOG

Now on the 5th day of the trip, light had hardly broken for the day and Michael was the first person out of the swag, I assume he just couldn't sleep and must have been itching to get back into the drivers seat to explore some more country for the day :lol: As most of you know he has a keen eye and ...

Thanks for the comments much appreciated, yes we certainly test the capabilities of both driver and Patrol :lol: I did try to resize the pictures for the next post, hopefully they appear better. We were up fairly early the next morning, the boys were commenting about the lack of brakes coming down t...

Hi all, been a while since the last post, as usual we're all busy but I thought its about time to put some words and photos together of our 2024 New South Wales, Lithgow trip. Having been able to get out again in 23 to Victoria after the crazy flu pandemic, the boys were all keen in 2024 to get out ...

great to read about your adventure, can't wait for the next trip Pete

Great story Mick, you wrote it well! :clap: was a big effort by everyone who made the trip, as always there are things to improve on or change but that's just the fun of it. to further Mick's story, my blue ute only had 1000km's on the freshly rebuilt motor so there were still some minor teething pr...

thanks Esteban hopefully not too long now and I will be able to drive it, I've had the suspension bushes on the shelf from when my father had his g60, brand new bushes that he would have gotten back in the 1970's! Still wrapped in the original wax paper.

well I decided the suspension bushes could do with a change so I got through all the shackles today, unfortunately I didn't get a pic as the rain was on and off all day, so tried to do as much as possible in between the showers. On the bright side I remembered to get a pic while i was adjusting the ...

hi Peter60 Thanks mate, yep sure will need to take it on an adventure! Will drive it around close to home for a bit while I sort out any teething problems. The tyres are MRF super traction, cross ply tyres same as you would have had back in the day, and yes they do get a bit slippery in wet weather ...
