FrankRizzo Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 one of 60 made? Wonder if it is true. Ive never seen one... https://barnfinds.com/rv-conversion-1979-datsun-620/ . Quote Link to comment
AlexDeLarge Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 I've seen a few on here. Just search "chinook" in topics only and it will bring up some threads. I am thinking there had to be more than 60 made. Also, I'm not sure but I think they were available in '78 & '79 and all of the ones I have seen are originally white. Quote Link to comment
MIKEYFTW Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 I’ve got a Datsun 620 chinook with a ka swap and I even did the speed hut gauges on mines with your help. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 This is a '78 regular cab. It's red because the owner probably painted it. Note the conversion too perfectly matches the cab. Owner supplied information is often spotty as shown by him not knowing a '78 or '79 apart. That info is obvious at a glance or by looking at the build date on the door jam tag beside the conversion tag. Quote Link to comment
Moist Lightning Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) I see these for sale in canada almost as often as i see normal ones for sale. They all seem to be listed way to high though. Everyone wants 8-10k for their dilapidated camper. Edit: if you looking for more info on these there is another company/version called the little chief.

datzenmike Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 I hear ya. Probably expensive to begin with and no good for anything but camping, so low mileage. Quote Link to comment
