Ahh yes, my jerryrigged ignition barrel setup

White (batt 12v) to 30 on the relay, pin 1 on the toggle switch and pin 1 on the press switch
Black/Yellow (starter wire) to 87 on the relay
Black/White (ignition/accessory wire) to pin 2 on the press switch

Pin 2 on toggle switch to 85 on the relay and 86 on relay/press switch ground to chassis ground

Press switch in (supplies ignition/accessory to vehicle), flick toggle switch (fires starter) and vehicle runs
To ‘turn vehicle off’, press the switch again to cut ignition/accessory power to vehicle

Long road to recovery. 👍

100%, will be a long journey but keen to chip away at it

Did the usual things with the engine bay, deleted the battery tray. Forgot Spot Weld drill bits existed so made a dogs breakfast of it but learnt my lesson when I was decluttering the firewall










Pulled the Motor and Box out last night, first time ever messing around with a Datsun Automatic so it was a learning curve to detach it from the car so I could pull it all out as one unit












And luckily found a buyer instantly so I won't have it hanging around, straight into the Ute and dropping it off this morning to the buyer

Great! the sequence of photos pulling the engine is fantastic

Appreciate the kind words!

I don't want this forum to sink into the land of lost like many other of my other favourite forums back in the day so I am trying to add content that people will get use out of for years to come. Everything in this thread is hosted on an old Tumblr Account that I use/used solely for hosting images. I deem it safe as I can't imagine that website will be going anywhere in a hurry and also, its FREE (up yours Photobucket/Flickr)

You might have noticed I have added to the Techwiki as well, it is mostly just information that I am actively researching for myself that I think would be beneficial to be brought into 2025
