Looking kind of lonely in the Nissan forum so I'll try to add some content on what I hope will be my daily driver for a little while. Long term plan may include large tires and a lot of custom fab.
I've always liked mini trucks but when you're 6'4" you learn to like them from afar. About a month ago I stumbled on an add for a 1982 Datsun king cab short bed 4x4. The king cab is just an extended cab but I figured I could mount the seat a few inches back in the cab for more leg room. I liked the squared body, 4 headlights, and the guy accepted my offer so I came home with another project.
Drug it home, everyone liked it which was cool.
This is going to be mostly bolt on type stuff and beginner level fabrication for now.
