New to the Patrol

Post by Datsunkeeper »

Hello,

I'm new to the patrol but not to datsuns/Nissan. I currently have 5 datsuns and 1 Nissan all 1977 and older. I just purchased a 1967 patrol from Kentucky, which I will be picking up next weekend. It's a complete truck only missing the running lights and air cleaner. So I joined this site to hopefule learn about the patrol and possible find the parts I need to complete the restoration.

Thanks Mike

Welcome . I live in Colombia, the country where more Patrol exist and most of them still working daily

This website is the best for Patrol. I have restored 2 Patrol by myself : G60 1964 and G61 1981 . I have an Austin Gipsy 1962. I have some parts for Patrol and I am building good reproduction of original frame for soft top.

Thanks
