Congrats on the car and welcome. I have several of these cars. Not to many of us out there with them. Let us know how we can help.

 

 

I've read alot of people saying that the lil motor isn't that good of a motor. How well do they run/ power(for a 1199cc), fuel mileage, etc..Same with the trans? We haven't been able to find much in the way of replacement parts, any ideas of places to look? one being a carb kit for it?

Welcome to Ratsun and congrats on the find!

 

 

 

411 parts seem a little more difficult to find, but they are very reliable, as were most Datsuns. Lightweight, small and low power, so gas mileage is obviously going to be great.
