Interesting information ... no wonder it's been for sale for so long. It was only when I saw the motor that I thought of posting it here, but I know nothing about this NL or the motor. Now, if it were an estate wagon instead - I would be figuring out a way to buy it, no matter what the deal is with the tags. I know that's risky, and I wouldn't try it on a pickup or a NL like this one. A double cab like you picked up, or an estate wagon (especially left hand drive) are in a whole different league.wayno wrote:I almost bought this thing 3 or 4 years ago, but bought Mike's NL320 instead, before anyone on here goes to see this vehicle, call and ask if it has an NL320 VIN tag, and if it does, will match the frame number!!!
He also will not say he has a title to it, he's kept telling me that he has the "pink slip" when I asked about a title, now if that is a title, fine.
If you noticed, there is no photo of the area that the VIN tag should be.
I went back through my emails and found my correspondence with this guy, when I seen this photo below, I asked about the missing VIN plate over the phone, that was the last call I ever got from him.
In California a "pink slip" is what you're calling the title. That's where the term "racing for pinks" comes from. There is a "pink slip" (yes, they are sort of pink in color) issued by the DMV upon transfer, and "registration slips" issued each year - except when a vehicle is put on "non op".
Yes, that exhaust manifold does stand out - doesn't it?wayno wrote: I have a bunch of photos of this truck, enough that I was able to figure out what was missing.
Did you notice the exhaust manifold in the photo above???
How about the condition of the steel, was this thing clean or rusty?
I ask because the pictures don't look too bad
