This page is dedicated to my ever changing 89 Nissan Hardbody Truck. I bought the truck in May of 1998 with 190,000 miles on the original motor and transmission. It now has nearly 200,000 miles and the engine is still going strong. The transmission is another story however. It was replaced due to an error on my part which ruined it. The truck is mainly used as an offroad only truck however it does get plenty of highway time enroute to the trails. It started out mostly stock with the exception of a brush guard on the front (since removed). It was running on its original 15 x 6.5 chrome rims and 30 x 9.5 tires (not original size). It now sports a host of new additions that can be seen in the list below. This truck will continue to be modified throughout it's life and should provide many more years of fun and excitement.
