Datsun Dude Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 My first car was a 1967 PL411 cream colored with a red interior. It was in prime condition, but that was 1980 until around 1984. I sold the car after blowing a head gasket. I've always been sorry I ever did that! That said, these cars still make me smile. I love to see examples that remind me of that ol' 411. Post your fave photo or video here. This one is close and currently for sale. Very tempting: http://imperial.craigslist.org/cto/3948018723.html Also love this one: Clean green: Red one: Quote Link to comment
erichwaslike Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 judging by the color combo on the yellow on i would venture a guess that is the fancy deluxe that was intended for the female driver. they only came in the butter yellow, gray and flower print seats, the turn signal didnt click but instead blayed music box music, and had a stiletto shoe holder under the dash in front of the shifter. the one thing that would have never flown now days cauase of all the equality and all that is nissan had a larger set of side veiw mirrors made for this car to help out the women folk when driving... lol so many lawsuits if they did that now.... ive always wanted to make one or find one of these, all thse lil thing that only came on this car would be absolutely priceless... yet to me would be worth millions.

Wisepuppet Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 I'd have to challenge if this is the best 411. My one is pretty good and hiding away in New Zealand Quote Link to comment
Wisepuppet Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Isn't it a 410 with that grill and those tail lights? Quote Link to comment
Datsun Dude Posted August 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Isn't it a 410 with that grill and those tail lights? The green one is a 410, yes. Is the gray one in your avatar your NZ car? Post a bigger shot in this thread! :thumbup: Quote Link to comment

MikeRL411 Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 An RL411 with original porthole wheel covers! I am not alone! Quote Link to comment
Datsun Dude Posted October 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 An RL411 with original porthole wheel covers! I am not alone! What's the difference between this RL411 and a RL411 SSS? This car looks just like mine except for the missing SSS badges. Quote Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 What's the difference between this RL411 and a RL411 SSS? This car looks just like mine except for the missing SSS badges. The badges, and most likely the "optional" ratio rear axle. It might even have a BW automatic transmission? Quote Link to comment
Datsun Dude Posted October 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 So only the rear end and the badges are different? Very interesting. One guy says the SSS model has round gauges. Mine doesn't have those, then again, who knows if I have the original dash or not? Quote Link to comment

So there was a choice, maybe as an over the counter upgrade? Quote Link to comment
erichwaslike Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 well i know mine has the 389, and all the ones ive come across had it too, auto or manual..... Quote Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 With the low number of RL411 built the dealers probably had no incentive to order any with optional rear ends. Like the first generation Corvair. Chevy dealers had to have one in the showroom but made little profit if they ever sold one. So, cheapest version on the floor without the good sway bars. Ralph Nader was the reason the 1964 Corvair came with the sway bars standard, loved mine! Quote Link to comment
Datsun Dude Posted October 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Interesting discussion guys. Thanks for the info! Are the sway bars worthwhile, or do they need updating? Quote Link to comment
erichwaslike Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 they leave alot to be desired in sprited driving, i used to take mine to the track and it had tons or body roll even with being low too. i had made a chromoly and billet aluminum one and it helped a lot Quote Link to comment
