69patrol Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Hey everyone, we are new here as we have just bought a 69 patrol. Its a project heap, but it should be a fun one. I have never owned a nissan but saw this one at the salvage yard and just had to have it. We are jeep owners, so we dont know much about the patrol other than they are rare and expensive to restore. Hopefully with alittle luck, we can find a few of the missing parts that we need to finish it up. Quote Link to comment

Moisabamf Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 was it the one at the ecology auto parts:D we were thinkin about buying it Quote Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 The overhead cam straight six is more Pontiac Firebird than all other Datsun sixes. Good luck, the world needs more old Patrols rolling across the landscape. The rest of the world gets modern Nissan Axess properly badged as Patrols. Quote Link to comment

motavated Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 (edited) talk to me if you need partsI got heaps of parts for Patrol Sold my Patrol a few months ago And I still have lots of parts left over and many rare parts including NOS Please do help him. If the Patrol that you bought came from that Santa Fe Springs Junkyard... He would need lots of help! Hey Patrol man. I wish you the best of luck really! I could not take that big of a job. It surely needs lots of work. Good luck man! "My fat ass smiling after my friend and bro told me to buy it so that we could fix it." ... After looking it over... Estimating and calculating on the cost to repair it, I said this. "No one will buy it, it is to much. I feel bad for it but I think its going to get junked." Good luck.

There she blows....aint she a looker??:eek: I had a couple of offers while picking it up on Fri that would have made a few thousand after all my expenses to seal the deal. I have some big plans for this project thats going to make my jeep XJ look like a toy. Quote Link to comment
motavated Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Can I have those turbine wheels? Or how much? Quote Link to comment
69patrol Posted November 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 I only have three of them. Are those Datsun factory wheels? If you want what I have, we can work out something cheap. Quote Link to comment
69patrol Posted November 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 If anyone knows of an I6 for this thing that is complete and possibly running for sale, and maybe a good price, Im thinking of keeping it stock for a while instead of V8'n it. Quote Link to comment
Rocket Dog Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 So....Rocket Dog wondered aloud...what ever happened to....? Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 If anyone knows of an I6 for this thing that is complete and possibly running for sale It is a chevy blue flame 6. Nissan bought the design and tooling for it from GM. Quote Link to comment
