1959 Datsun 1000

Well there's a ka not too far away from where the car is sitting now that can be offered up to the bat to see. Like, less than 100 yards away....

 

Destined for a different vehicle but can be offered up at least

So many options 😄

PS: If the Tesla swap doesn't work out, will we shortly see custom sets of REDEYEYE KA-1000 motor mounts offered up here?

 

How about a set of 'tesla motor into 620 motor mounts' , i would be your first customer.

Working on a VQ 620 thing atm, but I could add that to the list lol.

[]2eDeYe]

I hope so lol.

 

Would have taken some pics if I wouldn't have smashed my phone. 😐

[hobospyder]

Oh I forgot about that

[ArchetypeDatsun]

I want one if only I would have got the 58 that wasn't far from me.

[]2eDeYe]

It is really cool, I need to develop a plan

 

[hobospyder]

I know, just having fun...  Does icehouse still have the Tesla motor?

[hobospyder]

i think so?

[]2eDeYe]

Or maybe find another leaf setup, one in front and one in the rear 😄

[hobospyder]

Watch Copart and iaai auctions for dead leafs?

Buddy of mine that lives in town and uses my shop for working on his jeep says "I want to put the spare Jeep axles under that old Datsun on the tennis court. That would be rad."

 

Just, for ideas, yaknow

Actually not the same. I almost bought one of these but it was too incomplete. Didn’t have the front axle and missing something else important but I don’t recall. 
 

Mine is a ‘60 310.
