wow man, you really just cannot stop working. your truck (now truggy) really isnt ever done. Nice work though. It seems as if you just come up with this stuff on the fly.
why did you decide to tube it up if its still going to weigh as much as an xterra?

I wish it was still mine. Alas, it now belongs to another. I'm building it for my buddy Jason. He wanted to tubed to fit 4 seats and didn't want to deal with body damage. I miss my old Pathy

This work is sick dude.. Very cool.. I'm sure you used lots of nissan oem parts of this. That's sure is costly. Post more update dude. I'm excited to see it running.

Jason was too impatient to finish it. So, he sold it. Unfortunately it will probably be parted out.

Kenny!!! you need to pick up this bad boy!!! ASAP! http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/2843089193.html1969 Nissan Patrol for sale. The vehicle is 95% complete of original parts just needs restoration. This would be a great crawler project. My thought was to swap in a chevy 350 for power plant. I have an 89 Jeep I6 complete motor that with a little thought could be swapped in that will come with the purchase of the Patrol. The original Patrol engine is an I6 based off of a Chevy 235. So a jeep swap wouldnt be difficult. If interested, email for pictures. $1000.00
