ALL HAIL GODZILLA: Jethro Bovingdon shares the R32 Nissan Skyline GT-R experience

Jethro Bovingdon vs R32 GT-R

The first installment of Sports & Exotic Car presented by Gullwing Motor Cars brings you “Godzilla”: Nissan’s R32 Skyline GT-R. 

 

In this picturesque countryside of North Wales, host Jethro Bovingdon goes full JDM with a spirited journey testing the attributes of the most-storied four-seat sports sedan in his first-ever opportunity to pilot the Group A masterpiece. 

 

At a time when some exotics had yet to be fitted with fully independent suspension, the R32 Skyline provided technology previously unheard of in an all-wheel-drive, four-place passenger car.

1965 Datsun Pickup

I saw this pickup listed in Hemmings, and clicked though to check it out a little more. Here are a couple of odd things about it. Its listed by a private seller in Haverhill, Massachusetts.

"1965 Datsun “one off” Extended cab pick up truck, near perfect in every way! 46.917 miles from new. Cab is extended 7” and this show truck needs nothing!

Price: $21,995 obo "

They may have just bought the truck and are looking to flip it, but you would think they would at least use their own picture. The truck in the picture, dated last month has a California plate, and judging by the palm trees, and the rest of the background, I would say this looks like the truck is in California.   Then onto the truck itself. It says its a one off with a 7 inch extended cab. Generally the more original something is, the more money its worth. It is definitely one of those buyer beware kind of listings. It would need some more explanation to me before I got serious on it.  Just one of those curious things, there may be perfectly reasonable reasons, but it screams caution to me.
