Our Fair Nissan
On January 26, 2008, just short of high noon, in the Sonoran Desert of Tucson Arizona, The Nissan began the next stage in its long and illustrious life. An EMT, mountain ranger, ex-mechanic, construction worker bought the Nissan to fix up!! The Nissan is in store for a makeover, including AIR CONDITIONING!! The cowboy hat wearing driver owns an '89 Nissan that just died with over 300,000 miles. He plans to use that car to replace parts on his new, flashy Nissan a.k.a our dear Nissan.
Here's to another 150,000 miles!
The following is a tribute to the Nissan containing pictures of the Nissan on its/our cross-country adventure and images from its last moments in our possession (including the new owners, if you look closely).
