wasn't sold in America after 1969—at least, technically. These Jeep-like vehicles were first offered by Nissan in 1951 and have continued to be very capable and popular vehicles across the globe through to today's sixth-generation.

The engine wasn't anything special, being a cast-iron block and head with bathtub-shaped combustion chambers, but it was used until 2003, most recently in the Spanish-market version of the Patrol known as the 260 Series, which was based off the third-generation 160 Series.
