Strokermjcomanche Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 1983 Nissan 136 k miles . Clean !!!! No rust . I'm tossing around the idea of offering my 1989 white MJ as a trade and see if he'll take it . Something about this all original rust free time capsule pickup makes me want it badly . Anyone owned one ? If you did own one , pros and cons ? Thanks in advance . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INjake89mj Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I'm pretty much a fan of any "mini" truck. The Nissan's were no exception! 1986 Ram 50 with 4wd conversion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolwind57 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Does that Nissan have the new-for-1983 2.4L twin spark engine? It arrived mid-year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was really hoping that someone on here owned one and could tell me the pros and cons and then I could make an informed decision. I'd really hate to offer up my 89 in trade and back out or get the truck and it not be what I expected , he might not even want to trade ....

Jeep Driver Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 It's straight, it's clean, it's 34 years old. Offer him $1800, worth every penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drove a bunch of them (motor pool trucks) all over Luzon when I was in the Philippines, but they were all diesels. Nothing exciting to write home about, but they were definitely a lot more reliable than the S10s we also used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
