New Parts Shuttle/Beater Truck: 93 Pathfinder

[Spectre]

Well, my faithless Jeep has been sold in favor of something newer and less UAW-built-pile-of-garbage. Behold the Jaguars' new stablemate (because there are some things you just shouldn't transport in a Jag):

Not bad for a $500 car. It's a 1993 Nissan Pathfinder (Terrano for non-US markets) with the VG30 V6. It has a little bumper damage from the previous owner's inability to park, but it's OK otherwise.

Nice beater! Did you get your Series III painted silver?

 

[DiuSee]

nice, looks like a good find for $500

Nope, it's still Alpine Green. Funny thing, though - Alpine Green was one of the less popular colors, probably because it looks different in different lighting. It looks like anything from a flat battleship gray to a medium silver with a faint green tint, depending on the light.

[Spectre]

250K, engine and trans have about 40K.

Huh. How 'bout that.

Very weird.

Haha! Your off roader has to find a path!

That really does look like a heck of a deal for $500. Nice find! It seems my brother is in need of a car in that price range.
