So I need to find an engineer to use for the chop down of the GQ wagon into a ute.
I'm trying to find someone local or at least easy to get to.
I'm at Mcgraths Hill and have narrowed the list down to a few that are looking good but wanted to know if anyone has experiance with any of them.
Looking at
Rodger Perkins ANNANGROVE
Peter Smith CAMDEN
Lesley Gunaratnam TOONGABBIE
Trevor Booth KURRAJONG
Has anyone used any of these guys ?
Thanks for the info, Cheers Nick

What other mods are you engineering, if its also a lift and tyres steer well cleer of Peter Smith @ Camden.
He does not like lifts or bigger tyres @ all, cant comment on any of the others though....

Sorry I should have made a list of what i need engineered.
Cab chop XC
2" lift
33"s or 35"s depending on what they will do
Move fuel tank
Shorten Chassis
4 point harnesses for on road is possible
trimed front guards to suit 35's
and thats about it.
Its not crazy by any means.
Cheers Nick

Peter Gillard in Leichardt was good to work with
A little picky on a few points but overall very good to work with and if he could see you doing the right thing he would help you out with advise

Yeh, I wouldnt bother with the Camden guy with that list even tho it's not all that crazy.....
I don't think anyone will engineer the harness' but I could be wrong.

If he was closer thats where i would be going but its a bit hard to organise.
Might have to end up biteing the bullet and going down there though.
