RS-Yasu’s Nissan Sunny B122 Pickup Resto

RS-Yasu is another restoration shop out of Tochigi Prefecture, Japan that does beautiful restoration work. Their most recently completed masterpiece is a sanitora, a portmanteau of “Sunny Truck.” Despite it looking like an early 70s B110 Sunny (Datsun 1200 in the US), Nissan continued to build the pickup version long after the passenger car bodies had been discontinued. This is a 1989 model. Check out the resto process page.

That is one hot little pick-up! I actually have been looking for those style floor mats for a while. Where in the heck could I buy them?

A really expensive brand of floormat in Japan is Karo-ism: http://www.karo1980.jp/
Those in the truck don’t look snazzy enough to be Karo-ism, but the popular pattern is grey and black checks, so there are lots of cheaper imitations of them in Japan.
Project Hako came with some imitation black and grey ones.
