1988 Nissan D21 Desert Runner

Description for Nissan Other 1988

The 1988 Nissan Desert Runner is a VERY RARE vehicle. Nissan actually has no record of how many were built. It is estimated that there were only 200-2000 of these trucks ever made. This truck is an original Desert runner. Desert Runners have special nuances like the strengthened frame. roll bar points. and step rails; however. this one does not have the roll bar. tire mount. front tube bumper and bed supports. Factory original paint. This truck has undergone a full engine Rebuild done at 140xxx miles. Everything listed has been bought new replaced. or restored. I have the receipts for all parts purchased. I also have an original 1988 D21/pathfinder Factory Service/Repair Manual; which is very rare nowadays. I’m sure there are some parts on this list I’ve forgotten to include. Everything on this done to the truck is a quality piece there are no knock offs or shortcuts. Truck has sub 2k miles since the rebuild. Miles may go up. but very minimally as I do not drive the truck often. THIS TRUCK IS SOLD AS IS AND IS ALSO FOR SALE LOCALLY. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE FOR LOCAL SALE.
