Jester Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Great to see someone who"DRIVES" their classic daily. After all, they were built for it.:cool: Jester Quote Link to comment
Cow-Chained Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Neither is my wife. She calls it "that blue POS" and wonders why I didn't get a 510 wagon. Well, for starters, the POS was free! :thumbsup: If your wife woulda been down with a 510 wagon, she's pretty cool. Some of us wives can't even see the appeal in a datsun at all! :eek: (ducking and covering) Quote Link to comment

7thskyline Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Fantastic artwork mate! I had a similar plan for this; however I dragged my feet a little and it ended up selling. 1963 312. Was actually straight and complete down to badgework and chrome but had nasty rust in the roof which kind of put me off it. Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I'm not much of a fan of the 411, but I sure like the 312!!! ....only the wagon Quote Link to comment
7thskyline Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 I did too, but I just dragged my feet on organising dry storage for it, then also found they are relatively easy to come by anyway in more usable condition. Still it was $200AUD. It was missing the carburettor assembly, but otherwise complete. Had journeyed to Tasmania from West Australia in 2003 from its rego! Pics were from '07 and to be honest, I couldn't imagine driving cross continent in the state it would have been in 4 years back... Enough thread derailment. Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 ya...back to the thread.....like I said before, Fisch's art is the first time I've seen a 411 or 520 that I actually like.... great artwork!!! Quote Link to comment
NZDatsunchris Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 After getting permission from Fisch, Ive booked my session and im goin to get the 411 wagon tattooed on my fore arm opp my Datsun 1200 badge tattoo. I love this thing so much!!. Ill post pics up in a couple of weeks once the outline is done then few weeks later for the colouring. Quote Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 I have toyed with the idea of cutting the roof off a [hopefully not otherwise useful] 411 station wagon, cutting a 411 sedan vertically through the center door posts and stretching the sedan to match the length of the SW roof. I wanted to park it in front of the NISSAN USA Headquarters in Gardena CA [still think of it as DATSUN USA], but now that they have moved, the whole idea seems passe. It would look good with a mini bar in the back seat! Maybe with a V6 and rear end from the "86 200 SXSE? By the way, I am in the process of replacing the head gasket in my 1967 RL411. Does anybody "really" need a picture of the infamous hole in the left front fender liner for the exhaust? Or of the adapter installed to get from the modified type R engine to that fender well exhaust? Or of the bell crank installation needed to get the SUs running? Quote Link to comment
Artoo Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Okay, I know I'm thread necro'ing here, but this picture has inspired me. I would like to know as many details of that car as I can, model, year, accessories, (especially the fender mirrors and the visor) so I can replicate this car. With the owner's permission, of course. :P Quote Link to comment

With the owner's permission, of course. :P Go for it man. It is a 67 Datsun 411 wagon. I would get the sss version if you can find it! The info on the visor can be found on page 2 of this thread. The fender mirrors shouldn't be to hard to find, just do a search for fender mirrors on ebay. You'd have to improvise on the bumper mounted puke tank (overflow tank) But mooneyes might have something cool. The lake pipes running under the doors would be fun to figure out! On the SSS the exhaust runs through the front fenderwell. Here is s kewl example that was on B.A.T. I LOVE that freakin Dash!! http://bringatrailer.com/2008/11/04/black-plate-1967-datsun-rl411-sss-wagon/ Quote Link to comment
Wharf Rat Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 I would love to have a wagon to keep my sedan company. I would run this plate that I had on my old Caprice:D I would love to do it up like your fantastic art work As always, you are a wicked artist Fisch Quote Link to comment
purple Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 The moon tanks come in different sizes and are primarily used for drag racing fuel tanks. It be cheaper to improvise, like modify a chrome fire extinguisher or something. Many places have lake pipes available, different lengths, and 1 2 or 3 exits. Probably easiest to dumby mount them just for looks. Mirrors easy like he said. Might be able to use door mirrors from something else as long as it has a nice angle. Roadster springs in front lower it a little with a good ride. Quote Link to comment
speeddoctor Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 i have always loved your art and it has inspired to make my 411 a rat rod. Just finished putting a weber downdraft 35 series and that really woke it up. (could run 6-7 psi blow through turbo with it) provided increase main jet and 18 degree timing retard. Lowering it now, then painting it. Thx for this inspiring site. Quote Link to comment
speeddoctor Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 sorry weber 32/36 DGV. Can someone tell me how I can post a picture from a PC? Thx Quote Link to comment

Tristin Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 how do i post a picture from my PC file? You cant... you have to create an account with Flickr/Imgur/Photobucket/Tinypic whatever. Load all your pictures there and using the IMG code, copy that onto here. Quote Link to comment
