Hmmm. My wife's sister bought a '94 Pathfinder as her first car. It was pale green with a V6 but I thought it was under powered. It had really big tires which made the turning radius fall somewhere between a semi trailer and a VLCC, but those big tires prevented the car from being swallowed up by Hoboken sewers during the manhole cover stealing days of the 90's.
I eventually found her sister's ass in that thing so I can vouch for it being an assfinder."timberridge is terminally vapid" -- a fortune cookie in Yueyang

I have an Aztec Red 1995 Pathfinder SE-V6 w/offroad package. ~ 250k
Alloy 31's, Foglights, Moonroof, Automatic w/OD, Swing-out spare...nerf bars took the big rust hit, got water inside, but still have all the mount hardware.
For a resto, it's probably a good candidate. Very little rust, a few dings.
Mountain life has kept it solid but a 9 month stint in florida, summer '13, initiated some rust spots.
Easy fixes. Actually, the 'Patina' of the ole mtn. rig is perfect here in JH.
Motor and trans are solid, some oil leak at valve covers. I like to wrench, so it has a good maintenance history. About 3 yrs. ago, I backed off of it and now use it as a deep snow morning driver.
In a pinch, I'd drive it across the country.
If it's of any interest, I'd like to hand it to a fan of the Pathy and ideally, a proven mag. Cheap too. Less than a grand. I'm a bartering type to boot...
Only pic, I have at the moment. This w/the winter studded snows on.

The quest for Bmillsskier's Pathfinder
Are the OG alloys a requirement? Just not the same truck without them.
ETA, though I could make an exception for Djongo’s rig.Remind me. We'll send him a red cap and a Speedo.

If this thread produces results Bmills is looking for, perhaps we can leverage success and find glademaster a girlfriend next?

Moar:
31x10.5x15
It's not for sale, but I'd do it in the right sitch. Thought about bailing on it often but hard to do. Still titties on the deep days.
The off road pkg. was pretty uncommon; had the push button 2 way shocks, firm on the washboard was amazingly stable going over Union Pass rd. Soft on the roadwayz.
Also push button power/economy. Power keeps you in rpm's when bogging out on a steep uphill. Tittaaaaaaaaayz.

Good on ya', BMills. I had a 89 (? I think?) red, two door with the triangle rear window and transformer alloys in college. 5 speed. Several years later, I had a 94 four door, same body style, same alloys, same 5 speed. That SE V6 is bulletproof and one of the best V6 engines ever built. I have fond memories of both of those trucks, I remember the 2 door especially being incredible in the snow..

My buddy had that red one in high school. Floor board rusted out under passenger side and could watch the road roll by.
Spent the winter as a ski instructor at 7 Springs and that thing would always make it up the steep driveway in snow before it compacted.

Look guys. I think Bmills is sort of a discerning guy based on his cocktail choices and this thread is heading in the wrong direction. I'm here to put things back on track.
I gather he's not looking for a clapped out Pathfinder with chalky paint, rotted out bushings and a coat hanger antenna. Let's refocus ourselves and find him a clean example from a sunshine state with 150K of highway miles. Something he could drive to the golf club and not have to park in the employee lot over by the pile of bunker sand."timberridge is terminally vapid" -- a fortune cookie in Yueyang

I can vouch for Djongo’s rig. Good condition for what it is. That is my bumper sticker on his back window.

I was fairly well assuming he was looking for a fixer-upper that, at most, just needs things replaced from age, etc.
Good luck finding a 25 yr old pathy in minty shape, for a few hundo. Grands, methinketh.
I already offered up my rig. Invest a grand and drive it anywhere, 2 grand and it'd be the nicest in the state. It's not rusting thru the boards, so there's that. Dry up here.

Bad Brains...old friends from RVa in the 80's. My parking poaching at the villy was so notorious, they just referred to the rig as the Bad Brains. One hour parking shuffle - FTW!
Hell, If Abe's going, I'm down for a roadtrip to General Sherman's favorite city...
where exactly is that?

Of all days to be slammed at work. Lot to unpack here. Let’s go.
See? The name checks out.
Things got real early on in here.
***Bmills heads to basement to see how much tonic he has left***
Damnit, you’re not helping.
That looks custom.
No, but us grownups still can.
Gotta look before you step with some of these vintage girls.
Djongo, props man. That is one sweet ride and I can hear in your words what it means to you. The fact that you’d even consider seeing it off to another mag says a lot.
I know why it’s not for sale as you stated in your second post and that you haven’t brought yourself to move on from it. You said so yourself: the thing is a well-loved, worn in all the right places, hoss of a ride that still makes you smile. That’s awesome. Any mag would be lucky to get a turn with such a beloved ride.
That said, despite not being completely averse to parking next to the sand pile in the staff lot, I think Timber is right and that I’m gonna keep looking for one that has an amount of resto work to do that is more in my skill set/timeline for getting it where I want it to be.
Thanks boys, keep em coming.I still call it The Jake.
