Hi guys, my name is Camilo Monroy, I´m from Bogotá, Colombia, i have been a Datsun Nissan enthusiast since remember, I owned 4 Datsuns, and now I´m getting into the Patrol´s world.
I´m not a mechanic son my knowledge comes from reading and searching, I´m exploration Geologist, but due to the oil crisis I´m resting in home and waiting for the prices to go up again.

I owned my Patrol just for 2 months, is a 1979 with Colombian made hard top, it was in pretty good shape but I wanted to see it as it was in 1979.

Here is a couple of pics when I purchased it and in the proper section I´ll make the post with the restoration process.

I also want to show you two of my Datsuns, still own the 280ZX, the 910 Bluebird SSS was sold the last year.

Welcome to 60Patrol Camilo! :text-welcomeconfetti: You're in good company here, there are many members that are Datsun enthusiasts. My first car was also a 280 ZX. :D

Your Patrol looks good. It's always nice to see the Colombian Patrols.

Sweet looking Patrol. By my standards it didn't need a resto, but I have low standards. Welcome to 60 Patrol!!!

You are right the car could be used like that, but last year when I sold my Datsun 910 I began the search for a new project to keep my mind busy and I wanted to start on a nice base.
