There has been talk of the beefie Nissan 4speed auto
Nickmitty had one sitting around for his 1200 and I looked
at it and thought what a massive thing to try and fit into
a small tunnel but if it can fit easily definitely a good choice.
Not sure on the gearing but overdrive is great for the freeway
if the 3 speed is only 1:1 on 3rd.

Great to hear vintage look is on the cards, hard to beat a little
A series for fitment and upgrades to keep up with ugly looking late motors.

Russians love this 1200 and its vintage looks are off the scales
