1984 Nissan 720 Pickup 720 King Cab 4x4 review from North America
"Fun, cheap, reliable truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Difficult to pass emissions.
Transmission syncros are out a bit and it sometimes grinds gears.
Seats are uncomfortable, replaced with super firm and comfortable Celica seats.
If I had to replace seats again I'd go with Mazda 626 seats because of narrower, Nissan-like rails.
Marginal gas mileage.
Heater doesn't blow too strong.
General comments?
I really like this truck, I bought it for $400 and haven't put anything into it other than routine maintenance and the new seats. I'm going to put a suspension lift on this summer and bigger tires as well as rancho shocks and torsion bars.
Stock it can 4 wheel pretty good.
