History

The Nissan S-Cargo is a small retro commercial van manufactured by Nissan. The styling of the S-Cargo was directly inspired by the appearance of the small

postwar French Citroën 2CV Fourgonnette delivery van; it even used a Citroën style single spoke steering wheel. The 2CV was in its final years of production in

the late 1980s and had a niche popularity in Japan at this time. Its name was adouble entendre meaning both "Small Cargo" as well as "Escargot", he French

word for snail, nickname for the Citroën 2CV being The Tin Snail.

The van was introduced at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1989. It was built by a Nissan special projects group called Pike Factory, hich also produced other niche

automobiles such as the Be-1, ao and Nissan Figaro. Approximately 12,000 S-Cargos were manufactured. All vehicles are right hand drive. While initially

marketed only in Japan, he S-Cargo has spread as a grey import vehicle. In Japan, t was exclusive to Japanese Nissan dealership network called Nissan Cherry Store.

Walk around video and running engine available. I have used this vehicle in my business, hich is attending trade shows to sell my automobile inspired watches. It is fitted with shelving and a 500lb capacity roll out bin. It has a custom wrap which is easily removed to reveal the non standard (all S-Cargos were white from the factory) Kawasaki green paint. All door jams and door panels have been painted white, ith the exception of under the hood. No rust is evident. There are some primer spots on the green paint surface- tailgate and around one oval window. It’s very economical, ight and nimble with sprightly performance from the 1.5-liter engine. Often photographed by curious onlookers as it attracts attention wherever you go.
