Fellow Patrolers, hope all is going well.
My name is Sudeep and am originally from India. Came to Canada about 20 years ago. Found a 1969 Patrol in a farm not too far from here about 2-3 years ago.
My love affair for Patrols started when I was a kid in India. Dad was in the army and jonga was the vehicle of choice. Having spent most of my childhood in them seeing this one brought old memories back. Now I am not a mechanic (but have friends who are) so taking on the task of restoring this beauty was no easy decision. Anyway followed my heart and here I am two years after putting it back together (with lots of help). Needless to say I am running into some road blocks so time and time again I will be seeking your advice.
Will be posting some pics within a day or so. Just wanted to say hi.
Btw, went through a few posts and found some awesome info. Thanks to you guys it seems that riding a Patrol will become a reality soon.
Cheers
Greetings from Vancouver, Canada

Looks pretty good. Too bad about the rot. It's all in the typical places for a '69.
