LHD Sunny Truck???


Recommended Posts

I am interested in buying a Datsun/Nissan Sunny truck and I thought they were all RHD but I saw a video on You tube today that had a LHD version. I saw a RHD 1986 Nissan Sunny Truck for sale and I was wondering if it was possible to convert one to LHD. If not does anyone know where I could find one in the US for sale?

RHDrive JDM vehicles were sold in Okinawa until reversion from US Occupation forces to the Japanese Government.  It is possible that a Sunny truck was "repatriated" stateside during that time period.  Not aware of any Sunny registry, so good luck in your search.  JDM Vehicle models sold in Korea also were LHD [after the overthrow of Syghman Rhee who would not let anything Japanese into Korea, even the time which he offset by 30 minutes].

It is possible, but the swap is a good bit of work and will require some paint and body work on the cowl. I used RHD Sunny truck parts to convert my LHD Coupe over to RHD. 

 

Best bet would be finding a 1200 owner who wants to swap parts with you, or try to find a USDM 1200 for a donor.
