Re: Datsun 411 Wagon Re-Wire
There is no evaluation, every car is different and when you get to the age of some cars - they have had many people, many years, and many trips on them. Trust me, Alice isn't looking her age! She is a character..... All is going well - slight delay due to the shortages that seem to be affecting ever...

Re: Datsun 411 Wagon Re-Wire
If the voltage regulator is indeed dead - I can make a solid state replacement. They are surprisingly easy to make using only a resistor, transistor, and capacitor and a small heat sink. I may even have one or two that I built laying around from when I had a rash of Mopars with issues.

Re: Datsun 411 Wagon Re-Wire
Thanks for the compliment Randy! I figured I would document this well since it would probably be a good rough guide, or answer a few questions that people have. The 411 should hopefully be done in a week and a half or so. I hit a snag when I ran out of a couple colors of wire - and like everything i...

Re: Datsun 411 Wagon Re-Wire
Rear harness fabrication! As mentioned earlier, the factory rear harness was ran underneath the car - exposed to the elements. This I would be willing to bet is the cause or a major part of the cause for the re-wire. I ran the harness under the carpet / rear seat inside the cabin of the car to elimi...

Re: Datsun 411 Wagon Re-Wire
Let's make a front lighting harness!! I always scribble down a primitive diagram - just to figure out how many runs / colors of wire I need. Usually I will stare at this a bit, and realize I forgot something (I did in this scribble - I needed one more wire for the running lights.) and that gives me ...

Re: Datsun 411 Wagon Re-Wire
Rainy Day Update. As I still wait for my wire order to show up..... lol. But here is a few little tasks that are getting done. The stock ignition switch only had a couple positions and probably is pretty low in amp-handling ability. I have a bunch of these generic GM style ignition switches laying a...
