You are bidding on a rare Diesel Safari Patrol with all the options available from the factory! The Safari was built for the Japanese Domestic Market and has all the options that were always “dreamed of” but never available here in the US! The factory Diesel engine produces 114 HP and 195 ft/lbs of torque, while still achieving 20+ mpg on the highway! This vehicle has only 89,000 miles on an engine known to go to 500,000 or more with proper care and maintenance. With the robust 5-Speed transmission, factory-locking differentials, PTO winch and the 5-inch suspension lift this vehicle can go virtually anywhere the legendary Patrol owner desires!

Rare, strong running, Patrol with all the options! Gets good gas mileage (18-20 mpg) with power from the TD42 factory Nissan Diesel engine. This truck turns eyes everywhere, and is fun to drive! The body is pretty clean & straight, with only a couple small rust issues in the paint and on the bumper. Rare options include factory-locking differentials; full-floating rear axles, PTO drive winch, and the high “Safari” roof with factory power sunroof. The truck has a 5-inch suspension lift and 16-inch alloy rims with 35x12.50R16 tires that will need to be replaced soon as they are somewhat cracked and dry rotted with maybe 40% tread life left.

The truck came with dual batteries, which both were replaced less than a month ago, and has a 24-volt electrical system with a 24-12 volt converter to run any common 12-volt accessory from the cigarette lighter plug or via a hardwired connection. It is right hand drive as it was made for the Japanese market, extremely fun to drive and will only take the average driver a few spins to handle it like a professional!

Recent maintenance includes all fluids checked and replaced with new, 2 brand new Interstate batteries, new oil filter, new diesel fuel filter. The engine is in great mechanical condition with no leaks or issues. The body is clean and straight, with the only major issue being the lack of interior carpeting. Please contact me if you would like any more detailed pictures of the interior, body or undercarriage.

This vehicle is 100% legally imported, and is currently titled and licensed in Colorado. I have all the paperwork and documentation for registration in another state, and can assist with the process for the new owner as necessary.

Thanks for looking at this beautiful truck. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
