WE BOUGHT A $1,500 4WD from a bloke in the pub! Does it run?
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
We've really done it this time! Shauno & Graham just bought a G60 patrol at a pub in Tassie - and you can guess what we're about to do with it! It doesn't get much better than wheeling the tough tracks of Tassie with your best mate, in an old bucket.
The old G60 is no show pony, and we've got our work cut out for us. Tune in for bush mechanics, dodgy roadside fixes, mechanical failures, old school 4wding and more!
The old rig wouldn't have made it much further without a suspension rebuild from fulcrumsuspensions.com.au/
Even old rigs deserve top notch tires, like our set from www.goodyear.com.au/
The G60 was brought back in to good wheeling condition with a handful of spare parts from our mates at www.drivetech4x4.com.au/
Don't go anywhere in a barn find without a good set of recovery tracks like ours from: www.maxtrax.com.au/
We only use the best oil, even in old junkers! Head to rego2oil.castrol.com/en_au/au... to find the right oil for your 4WD.

I love the geniune excitement Graham has when he walks up to that g60. Thats a bloke that loves his patrols and its not every year you get to see one let alone be able to drive it.
Got to love the old 3 speed manual, if I remember correctly 1st gear doesn’t have a synchro. Can’t find or grind it.

Thats a old 4wd but it is still a Trooper!
Thats so awsome! Now you guys have to do a trip in just the old Girls, g60, 40 series and ponylux!!! Love your videos best reguards from Sweden
The good thing on using vintage 4x4 is that you are teaching us to use basic truck to offset buying new 4x4 . That indeed is very helpful to poor viewers like us . thank you .
Shauno: I'll just back up Graham: that would be more comfortable.
Great to see the old G60 out there roaring like they do. Amazing how far it can go in those conditions, no centre diff, no diff locks or computer aided suspension control. Just pure Nissan grunt. You need to adjust all the brake shoes as close as possible to the drums to have a decent brake pedal. Regards Steve.
Shauno, give the G60 to Graham. Make sure you guys get it in a comparable condition to the HJ47, then show us how capable 2 stock Relics are. The fact the G60 survived this long means it deserves to be kept in running order, will make far better viewing than 200 series Computer controlled 4wd.

These are the type of episodes that I love! More budget trucks and different old school 4x4s please.
You would never have this much of a pearler of a time and such a great laugh in a 200 series. This G60 was a great find. An absolute Hooter.
I like to watch Shauno & Graham doing anything , 4WD driving , cooking , fishing , working on their cars , or just talking , doing a travelling vlog , they are entertaining no matter what they do !!
Oh man! Graham’s attitude throughout is hilarious! He’s so keen, I love it! Totally cheering up my Sunday morning! Cheers guys! KEEP ON ROLLING!
About as high-tech as a hammer with all the creature comforts of a WWII tank, this old truck shows what off-roading used to be like.
Shauno's first decent purchase! 👌 lol
Brilliant! Love these sorts of videos. Bucket list stuff! Thank you for sharing

Old land rovers need to be forgotten about ... They were fragile and abysmal I speak from first hand experience Stick with the old Japanese They might have been prehistoric but they were tough!
My first Nissan was a G60. Loved it! No aircon, couldn’t hear the radio, and drank fuel like I had shares in Ampol, but I loved it. Had to get rid of it when pieces of the body and the chassis started falling out on the road. But it was a tractor and went anywhere. I still love my Nissan’s , on my fifth one now. A 91 GQ
Yes I will tune in next Thursday! Can’t wait!
I’ve been waiting for this for a long time . Now let me grab a few colds ones and sit back enjoy watching this video of the old Nissan Patrol G60 😀👍.
Glad to see you blokes in Tassie. The best State in the country.
Love it. Now I know where the ‘spontaneous’ directors from Top Gear found a job. 😄👍
It’s good to see a more mechanical side of the show, on older rigs too. The off-roading is also brilliant. Need to get Jock back too.
this is by far the best one yet had a good time watching thanks guys
I can’t wait to see the next part of this adventure. It looks intense!! Love the idea of buying something sight unseen and taking it on an adventure. Great video boys!!

Blows my mind the content you guys put out for free. Thanks guys
the best type of 4wd 247 vid. bloody love it
Josh and the boys at Eurotech are bloody brilliant, highly recommend them for all your servicing and repairs
I had a 1980 G60 that I took to many places the most memorable was driving it to the tip of Cape York including driving across the Jardine River up and back. Did Gunshot as well. Your G60 deserves to be sorted and preserved, great video, bought back memories!!
Mate what a find 🤤 one hell of a rig
Woo a G60 after the HJ47 ! Even if I'm a 40 series fanboy I have to admit that it's so rare to see those old Patrols detailed like that on KZread that this is very very cool !
I'm stoked to see they have another G60 on the show after so long. Makes me look forward to picking my MWB up in a few weeks time and see how she goes.
I'll tell you what...you guys know how to have an adventure! Can't wait to watch the next episode and I've all my toes and fingers crossed along with anything else I can find in Suport of you two Guys.
That was a brilliant episode guys! Can't wait for the next one.
YesSiRr!! Awesome stuff Fellas!! Love yah Work!!
really enjoyed this thanks chaps
G60 was my first Fourby back in the 80's. It was a beast to drive and I certainly wouldn't want one for a daily driver today but whenever I see one now it makes me happy.
The absolute best 4wd content on the tube. Love you guys!
Thats awesome! Huge fan love your videos keep it up legends🤙
The first crossing of the Simpson desert was by the Leyland Brothers in 1966 in two "Land Rovers"!!!!!. It began May 3rd 1966 at Steep Point near Shark Bay WA (the most western point of the Australian mainland -Indian Ocean). It finished on August 20th 1966 at Cape Byron NSW (the eastern most point -Pacific Ocean). Waypoints along the 26th parallel included Meekatharra, Wiluna, Carnegie, Gibson and Stony Deserts, Giles, Ayers Rock, Finke, Andado, Simpson's Desert (crossing took 22 days, 1105 sand ridges) Birdsville, Windorah, Cunnamulla, Goondiwindi, Lismore. Not a Nissan!!!!
I have been waiting for this one. Keep it up boys 👍👍
We have some cool barn finds here in the US, but that’s a awesome find. Love the whole process from purchase to wheeling.👍🏻👊🏻🙌🏻
This is such a good video they just keep getting better

This is one of the most fun videos you've done. Enjoyed every minute of it.
Absolutely love it! Love the vids 👍🏼
Absolutely love the cheap truck challenges. It’s so much like my weekend trips.
That's the coolest moter shaun has ever got he should give it to Graham to keep and repair nice one boys
Brings back memories of 4wding with my old man in Tassie in our G60 Wagon in the late 70’s. They really are a beast!
Great episode guys can't wait for next week !
These guys have the juice!!!!!!! 🍻 Cheers boys good luck with this one! Wish I was there! 🍻🍻
What an awesome episode!!!
Love this “in-the-midst-of-an-adventure” style!
Keep the fun coming guys
I’ll never forget the time I replaced the rear brake shoes on 79 Nissan Patrol G60 only a few hours before an 800 km drive out bush on a hunting trip , I had to pump the brakes a bit before they worked just fine . I think the 4wd store gave me the wrong brake shoes . I quickly got used to the brakes and left them as they were , I just wouldn’t let anyone else drive the G60 . Shauno you’re not supposed to put it in 1st gear when the vehicle is moving, only put in first gear when completely stopped . I look forward to next weeks video.
Wow! This channel has really grown. I remember waking up in Florida and there'd be only a couple hundred views. Today there's a couple of thousand. And for good reason. Great content guys.
A lot of nostalgia in this one for me. I learnt to drive in my grandfathers G60. No power steering, 3 on the tree and a quarter turn lag in the steering wheel. Drove it home from vicroads after getting my learners permit with the little straight six screaming its head off topped out at 90km/h on the highway!
What an episode boys!!! Loved it

Nice to see the boys spend $1500 on a old jigga and have a bit of fun instead of $100 000 plus that again on mods. Keeps them more in touch with the common man
You blokes are legends.
In 1980 we use to get around the Top-End in one of those old bangers& it was very capable off road, back then it was nothing fancy but it was a bloody tough rig. The only drawback with the old 60 was the three speed gearbox, good down low off-road but a real pain on the highway if you wanted to get anywhere the same day.
I recon this will now tripple the value of the old G60's... so glad i have one here in the process of resto modding it.
