1984 Datsun 720 4x4 - SOLD
Imagine this: You, cruising down the highway, wind in your hair and feeling like you're Brad Pitt (Brad Pitt in Fight Club not the Brad Pitt in the Curious Case of Benjamin Button). You're going 62 MPH because you think you remember that someone sometime told you that cops won't pull you over if you're only going 7 MPH over the speed limit. Purple Haze comes on the radio and you turn it up a little louder to sing along. From the left corner of your eye, you see a red 1969 convertible Camaro filled with 4 college cheerleader girls pull up beside you. They scream over the wind that's flowing through their long blond hair and ask "What kind of truck is that?" You pull your sunglasses slightly down by the bridge of your nose like a boss and say, it's a Nissan/Datsun. They all yell out, "super sexy" and throw you a hotel room key through the open window and then speed off down the road. You open up the glove compartment and throw the keys in with the 4 other hotel keys that you had thrown at you this week. While you have the glove compartment open, you find a quarter that the previous owner of the truck had forgotten to remove when you bought it. Awesome, you're feeling like you're high on life because you just realized that you only paid $1499.75 for your new set of wheels. That's what life will be like everyday if you buy this truck.
Ok, now that we got the boring stuff out of the way, let you tell you about all the crazy-pimp awesomeness of this truck. It is a 1984 Nissan 720 King Cab, 5 speed manual transmission, 4x4 truck. It looks mad awesome because I painted it flat black using cans of rustoleum paint (I spare no expense to help attract ladies for you). If you ask 100 ladies what their favorite color is for a 1984 Nissan 720 truck is, 23 of them will say flat black. That's 23%! (Almost a quarter of the women asked) It was just inspected in April so you don't have to worry about passing inspection right after you buy this. BONUS, I just put brand new tires on this beast. What's that you say? "You must be stupid to sell a truck when you just bought brand new tires for it!" and I'll say "Yes" If I had another vehicle that would take that size of tire, I would take them off right now... stop trying to give me seller's remorse. They are all terrain tires and there might be 100 miles on them(They still have that blue paint on the white lettering). The 4 wheel drive (High and Lo) works great and the wheels have manual locking hubs. Ladies will tell you that manual locking hubs work better than automatic ones. I wouldn't trust them... seriously who asked women about truck parts anyway? Since it's a 4x4 it sits a little higher off the ground than a 2wd truck. Ladies love how aggressive this extra height gives it. Maybe you'll want to turn this truck into a rock crawler and try to pick up a grunge-type girl. I'm not judging you... different strokes for different folks I say. The odometer reads 143227 but the engine was replaced with a used engine about 5,000 miles ago. The used engine only had 60,000 on it or so. I also put crazy sweet seat covers on this... some people like the feel of hot sweaty vinyl on their butts, but not me... and not real men. This truck also has a 32/36 Weber carburetor installed. It sounds good and easily improves the 0-60 time from 25 seconds to an easy 22 seconds. So any normal person may be asking at this point, "Why the hell would you want to sell something so clearly perfect and fergalicious?" Well, here's what's is making me part with this definition of "pimp". I purchased it a few months ago looking for something different. Turns out, I didn't like "something different" so it's time for something new, something I know I will enjoy. So, here's where you come in. For the measly price of a cup of coffee every day for the next 2 years, you could be the proud owner of this chick magnet truck Let me see... anything else you should know before the upcoming pictures... the radio has an aux in so you can hook your ipod up to it... that's pretty cool right? Oh, it does burn some oil so you'll have to keep an eye on that... it's a truck from 1984, quit your complaining. Also the right mirror is cracked but it still works. Heck, I'll even wash the bird poop off of it if you want me to (but only if you buy it) We'll have to negotiate a little if you want the hula girl on the dash to stay. Oh, I just remembered... the speedometer is 7 MPH off. So if it says that you're going 62, you're actually going 55. See? This will keep you from speeding because some idiot friend of yours told you that you won't get pulled over for going 7 MPH over the limit. I just recently did a tune up on the truck. Carb tuned, new spark plugs, new distributor cap and rotor and an oil change. Truck runs fantastic for it's age. It also has a shackle lift in the rear. I haven't bothered going through and raising the torsion bars in the front. Also, the truck was given a rust-proofing in 1987 so it's 99% rust free other than a little surface rust on the bed, there is NO rust on the frame rails. Looking to get $1500 OBO or looking for a trade for a Subaru Wagon of some sort. Low ballers will be ignored and probably made fun of.
