Description

The soft-top Nissan Patrol 60 (two-door; 2,200mm (86.6in) wheelbase) and G60 (two-door; 2,500mm (98.4in) wheelbase) were first sold in Australia in 1960.Left-hand driveL60/GL60 models were sold outside of Australia. Nissan Australia claim that the 60 series Patrol was the first vehicle to drive across theSimpson Desertin Australia, and built much publicity around the 50-year anniversary of the event, including a re-enactment with a similar vehicle ending on 21 July 2012 to publicise the impending release of their new generation Y62. However this version of events differs from the recollections of Griselda Sprigg, the wife ofReg Sprigg, who accompanied him on the trip. In her 2001 book about the event, she describes how Reg in the Nissan was held up on the last day. Griselda and the children went on to Birdsville in a Toyota Land Cruiser which was one of 3 support vehicles. Reg arrived the next day in the Patrol, making it the second vehicle to cross the Simpson Desert.[2]InBeing First is Forever(2102), Marge Sprigg (with Doug Sprigg present) confirms only the Nissan Patrol G60 did the West/East crossing of the Simpson Dessert. Doug and Marge undertook the crossing with their parents. The other vehicles did not cross West/East, they used another route.
