Introducing Pissan Nissan ( the first)

[katwoman]

1973 Nissan Patrol long wheel base



Due to high demand, this is the start of Steve's G60 Restoration.

The car was bought at auction just because it had a original 1960s Holden heater in it. Purchase price $50.
Mr Nissan had extended the body about 500mm.( see first pic of line behind the front door) We are not sure why, one story goes that it was made for the "snowy Hyrdo scheme", or for the local power station (sec). May have had seats running along the inside rear. Was used as a farmers tractor before coming here.
Onto some resto pics of what has been done so far;
First day

head was removed just to replace a welsh plug, so while it was off, it was machined and then ported and polished.

[Stropp]

Wowee Steve is doing a great job on the ol patrol, as he said its a real shame he didn't get it finished for the Simpson trip but then again would he have put ALL that gear in the g60 being all nice and new that he carried in the 60 series ?

[growler2058]

Shit HOT!! Makes me want an ol G60

[rusty_nail]

why are there 4 gearsticks?

handbrake, HL, gears but what else?

[Winnie]

One might be to go 4/2wheel drive and the other might be hi/low?

[threedogs]

They were extended to compete against Theiss for the mining contracts
and only Theiss as it was known of at the time had the FJ/BJ 47[ troop carrier]
Datsun only had mid and short wheel base G60s

No, the G60 would of been more prepared. But a little thirstier, I would think.

You win a old rusty G60 !!

[katwoman]

One might be to engage the transfer case then a hi/lo one may even be for a PTO
been ages since Ive driven one, all I can remember was no syncro in first and only 3 speed
See above.........
