I never thought this day would come, but I am actually running out of room in my shop. I am considering selling my 1969 Patrol, but will only sell to someone on this forum, or a friend/acquaintence of someone on this forum. I'd want it to go to someone who can appreciate it.
1969 Nissan Patrol
1999 Chevy Silverado v8 engine (LM7)
1980s (?) GM 1 ton SM465 4 speed transmission
1950s (?) Dana 18 transfer case (with a whole spare transfer case)
Novak adapter kit (trans to TC)
ATV Manufacturing (Herm the Overdrive Guy) Overdrive unit
Custom dash panels
Custom audio setup (radio and 4 speakers)
Custom SPOA lift
Custom disc drake conversion all around
33" tires, with a full size spare
Custom swinging spare tire holder
bunch of bright offroad lights
Super heavy duty front bumper
Pretty heavy duty rear bumper
Dodge work truck tail lights
Custom wiring
Interior lights (switched)
Custom driveshafts with CV joints
Custom rear jump seats
The electronic speedometer doesnt work - I have tried replacing the gauge with a brand new unit, replacing the sender with a brand new unit, and still no dice. I had plans to swap in a GPS speedo, but just haven't gotten around to it.
Heater works great, with a custom rebuilt heater core
No leaks at all!
Probably some more i'm forgetting. I understand it is not the nicest looking Patrol, but have you ever seen one with this type of drivetrain? I know its dirty, I honestly don't wash this thing. I only ever use it to drive around my property, and it gets pretty muddy. PM me if interested and I can give you my personal contact information. I am located in northern Alabama, and asking $15,000.
