Beginning of a new restore project ... this rare Datsun pickup imported from Canada. Normally these pickups were sold in Potugal with the SD22 diesel engine and locally produced woodem box

At this stage the work seems to flow very quickly, dismantling first the box then the cabin, making it easier to pulling out the engine and gearbox.

Nice. Better engine than the European 620. I have a USA imported King Cab. I also have a USA shortbed truck which is very rusty so I am dismantling it.
