Good Evening,
My Dad owned a 1963 Nissan Patrol that was used on the tv show Passport To Adventure in the 1960's. It was yellow with the TV shows name written on the doors. (I will look for a pic). He used it for hunting trips to Wyoming in the late 60's and after blowing the engine up twice, he started the process of a small block chevy swap. Unfortunately he never completed it, and the Patrol sat in my parent side yard for close 40yrs. After my Dad's death in 2009 I ended up giving away the Patrol to someone as a parts vehicle. Hopefully what was left of it got used to save another Patrol.
Anyways, I have the desire to own one myself. Hopefully I will be able to acquire one in the near future. I look forward to learning more about the Patrol, thru this group.

Great story about your dad's Patrol, I think Ive heard of it before. Plenty of information here to get your knowledge up, and keep your eye out for vehicles listed for sale here as well.

Certainly, you not only need, you deserve a good running Patrol.
