Your moms aunt Flo's 411


Recommended Posts

Name change since it isn't stuck on front page now.

 

Sold my 4door 510 to fund sheet metal roof,, and got a wild hair to sell my 55 Ford at the same time,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, by some miracle they both sold for the price i wanted..  So after they were gone i was stuck with that stupid 83 280zx turbo ,,,,,, again.

I finally finished putting on the stupidly overpriced sheetmetal and had some free time to Craigslist,,, bad idea i know...  Came across a 66 411 local that the guy wanted to trade for old cars or motor bikes,,, Fuckin A ,,,,,,,,, that sounds just like an ad aimed right for me. :frantics:

 

 

So we setled on giving him 2 Z50 type cycles that hadn't even been out of the garage in at least 10 years (took 4 hours to move enough shit outta the way to get the first one even to the door)  and a few dollars in cash... Offered the blue 71 SL175 up too but he didn't seem to want it.

,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

 

 

Ended up with a used tampon red 66 411 that has ( by the paper work )  traded hands faster than a doobie at a Allman brothers concert.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Literally the only thing that would make this a "car" is that it can actually drive down road under its own power,,, because of small fire previous owner had that fried the fuse box. Motor smokes and has a severe knock,, and looks toover heat a bit ,, by the brown water stains all over engine bay ..  . Windows must leak as there is copious amounts on silicone type material around front and rear windows............ There is a sizeable bondo spots (found with magnet before purchase) behind rear tires.  and the head liner is pretty fucked,,,,,,,,,

 

All in all a pretty decent Datsun.

 

 

Plans are to install an A 14 in got a year or so ago and one of the 2 ,,,,,, yes 2 non dogleg 5speeds in have on the shelf.

 

Long term plans have always been ( have been collecting parts for years) 4Age swap for the noise it puts out,, :lol: :lol:

 

 

What does this piece of shit look like????????  Well in that respect it shines like a diamond . Previous owner loved the car and it shows ,,,  but it looked like it was just was falling apart in every way and if you know anything about these,, the parts are pretty much non-existent

Ted  as in ,," fucking Ted :sneaky: "  came over to bum a 620 seat i was tired of moving back and frickin forth for it's runners,, and helped me get this mess of wires out of the white 411 ^^ up there.

  Over the weekend i thought i could easily run the painless style wiring the guy had started,,, but when i touched a hot wire to the wires with tail light written on it................ The starter started to turn,,,,,,,,,, welp that shit is fucked up... So went back to original plan of attack..  It may catch fire but at least i will know it was my fault..

 

 

About all i got to show is a mess of wires on the floor.

Well not much but ripping and tracing wires .. For some reason Datsun used the exact same plug end on the heater and head light switches and they are within inches of each other in the car,,,,,,,, yeah good thinking on that one.

 

 

anyways,,, got to go to kincos and blow up a wiring diagram my neighbor came up with..

 

Old new harness

Thanks i will copy that off when i get a new color cartridge ( have been running on black for awhile cuz i'm cheeep) :lol:

  The one my neighbor brought over was in a service type manual ,,  the drawings seemed bigger than on the PDF so it has quite a few more pages,, but it looks the same other than that..
