Any G60 Series owners out there?

[TaraTryptamine]

I've been desperately skimming through all the forum's sections looking for another 60 Series owner. I have a 1965 Nissan/Datsun Patrol KG60, but I can never seem to get in touch with anyone else who owns something similar!
Cheers!

Lol, there are a couple about. Probably out enjoying their iconic patrol though lol.
How did you go with the radiator cap?

There are a couple of lovingly restored examples I see from time to time on the local streets - and some tricked up ones as well.

Not on here, though, so far as I know.

This is incredibly saddening. Haha. In America, they're especially rare, I haven't seen one in decent shape around pretty much at all! Ah well, guess that makes me unique!
Taslucas, the radiator cap part number you gave me only fit later generation 60s Series. Mine is a 1965 :/ it might work, but I want it to be exactly right so I don't mess anything up.

[Finly Owner]

the best I can tell is: it should be a Corrugated Fin Type, and the Cap Relief Pressure should be 88kpa or 0.9kg/cm2 or 13psi.
Valve opning temperature 80.5-83.5 degree C (177-182 degree F) for Temperate Type; 86.5-89.5 degree C (188-193 degree F) for Frigid Type; 75-78 degree C (167-172 degree F) for Tropical Area.

This is straight out of the Nissan Factory Workshop Manual for Australian G60's.

Ahhh sorry about that! I just took a stab in the dark about the year.

Heres an old workhorse. Saw it not too far from home. It looked like it had been driven there recently.

Rare doesnt mean expensive
Many things of minmal demand end up at the scrappies, or the young fellas buy for paddock bashers
The last G60 i seen , was my old bosses shorty
It was bought cheap and spend once a month under water on trips, guess the old cancer took over
Last time the doors opened they fell of
