Nissan Patrol 60

The Nissan Patrol 60 series went into production in 1960. Previous models of Nissan were inspired by American Jeeps, but this was a new design that sported a distinctive look. The 60 series sold well in Asia and Australia but not so much in the United States as only 4,000 units were sold there. It remained in production for almost two decades (until the mid 1980's). Nissan released a slightly modified version called the 61 series, and sold it alongside the new Nissan Patrol until 1984. The 60 series Patrol was replaced in 1980 by the Nissan Patrol 160 series, also known as the Nissan Safari.

Nissan Junior 40 truck

Nissan introduced the new Junior 40 truck in 1962. This truck is by no means small as it's wheelbase are the same as the Ford F100 from the same era. The Junior series 40 was in production until 1965. It was replaced by the Junior series 41, which was the same truck, but equipped with a more powerful engine. The Nissan F40, not to be confused with the Ferrari F40, is the fire truck version based on the Junior 40. Tomica Limited Vintage released the Nissan Junior 40 truck in May 2006 and the Nissan Patrol 60 in June 2006.
