New World Datsuns...

OH HELL YES! ITS FINALLY COMING! THANKS TO JAMES (510 KEEPER)

oh holy hell lol

You stuck with the search and it payed off. Good on ya man, congrats.

SSS?

Jess, its supposed to be. I has the SU carbs but no badging.....gotta check vin and paperwork. Or ask Greg......he would know. Either way I'm stoked! Wont be ready for Canby as I've got to get Wayno's ready and Mike's too....Blue Lake here we come!

I don't know much about the 411's but if it's a SSS model, don't the SSS's have the exhaust going through the inner fender ??

And congrats on the 411 purchase, it look's like a good start for a project.

Thanks! Its supposed to have the exhaust like that..we'll see. Cant wait to get it going! Been waiting and wanting for a couple years....

I'm seriously jealous - what a cool score!

I'm no expert, but I am coming up to speed on these... When they first put the R16 motor and Fairlady disc brakes on the 411 the VIN started with a "R" on RHD or "RL" on LHD sedans and wagons, but the badges simply were 1600. Shortly after production started they switched to the sexier SSS badges. There isn't a difference between early RL411 sedans and wagons versus the later ones with SSS emblems. It's documented that some dealers, back in the day, swapped the 1600 emblems on early RL411's to SSS emblems in order to sell them eaiser - and there isn't anything really wrong with that. My Bluebird came with the 1600 emblems, which I think is cool - it's more of a "sleeper" - LOL

This one looks like it's in great shape

Thanks Jeff! I am really excited to get this! Gonna do a build thread---what to do, what to do......Now what to do with the 4dr........hmmmm

Fucking sweet man! I love 411's. Glad you found one finally.

Oh yes, I am now "Gooned!" Or was that a Goonie?.....lol
