Want to stand out from the crowd and express your love for retro 80s styling? Now’s your chance. This 1983 Datsun 720 4×4 pickup is beautifully unmolested, and at 30 years old, looks almost brand new save for some minor bed wear that proves it was used as intended.
The crème brûlée color scheme of tan paint and oversized orange decals is just the thing to show off your pride for the most flamboyant decade in recent history.
Plus, it sports both the Datsun and Nissan name, making this one serious collectible for fans of the marque. While it looks to have a mild lift with aftermarket wheels, it was tastefully executed and does not detract from the overall package.
As a lover of old Japanese 4x4s, it’s exactly this that I hope we see more of at JCCS in the future. Get to bidding before Adam Carolla sees it!

Knock off $2K on price to get that back to original specs…..
As great as “original and unmolested” is, there’s really something about a tastefully modded/period correct car or truck. Even nissan did in house tuning. Something like this may not be as “collectable” but its more fun to own, and that’s really what its all about.
That is absolutely swear-word beautiful. As for the lift and tires, they fit so well that I wouldn’t change a thing. I am always for a mildly and properly lifted truck. And massive 4X4 decals never go out of style.
Oh my. I have always loved the 720!
That is awesome. Totally worth whatever the bidding ends at in that condition. Most of these trucks have been beat up or rusted to chips doing their duty as a pickup.
I know of a perfect black 720 4×4 near my in-laws in Japan. White steel wheels and everything. It looks SO good and must be a lot of fun to drive.
Very, nice !!!
A rare beast here in Canada.
Very nice truck,and worth what ever it goes for,because i stop bidding at just under 4000.00.Now i am going to cry.
1 more note is the fact they did not cut up the inside of this truck to mount speakers like they did back in the day.
I bought a Nissan 720 brand new in 1985, drove the snot out of it, put 190,000 miles on it, overworked it a time or two…God I miss that truck!
