Falcon Nissan ute

[last fairlane]

I had a heated debate today with a bloke who knows everything about cars
now I know that Ford and Nissan swapped cars in the eighties
but he says that in 1986 Falcon utes came out with RB30 motors
just like the VL Commodores he reckons about 50 were made with 5 speed manuals before Ford was ready for unleaded fuel
I tried to say about the Nissan utes but he was adament that Ford used the Nissan motor
anyone heard this
