I cannot believe that it ran and started as easy as it did. You've inspired me to get my mazda REPU going as a rat-rod instead of a super nice restoration. I already have a 13bt and now it just needs some floors, brakes and tires to pass here I think!
Please do You will enjoy it and people will love seeing it. I would rather see a car with some character driven then a car in a shed for 5 years. I seen my first REPU in real life today love them.
Really enjoyed this video. A mate of mine had one of these in the early 1990's - it was mint. He wanted new piston rings installed, no idea. One weekend we dropped the sump and pulled the head with engine still in the car, pushed the pistons up through the block from underneath. Was all back together and running by Sunday. Happy Days - I can still hear Rat Cat playing on JJJ.
I smiled the whole way through this video!! Takes me back to the days of paddock bashers at our family farm!! Once made a dato convertable!! She was my favourite machine!! ❤😀👍👌
That thing is mint . My favorite part was him smoking a cigarette next to the gas tank with a rag top . This gives throwing caution to the wind meaning . The good old days are right now !
I actually want to see more of this Rotsun from wherever in the part of the world you are, if it can come back from being a thrashed rally car then who knows what possibilities lay in store for it!
I dont even know where to begin with this one. Love watching you boys just have fun lol. I guess trailer skids are so last season, limo roof skids are hot!
It’s beyoodiful! Great feelin to get a build runnin and then run the gauntlet and drive it on the street. Outstanding work gentlemen. You should be proud of y’selves!
This thing’s incredible sits in a field for years with no hood yet it cranks up like it was yesterday what a reliable little fella give it some more lovin and take it into town get people’s reactions to it 😂
You do the coolest thing bringing these cars back to life!!! Reminds me of what i do here in America but you’re way way faster lol and way crazier!! Also Takes me a year and you 2weeks!!! I hope your buds back is ok that was some serious air time!!
Thanks mate. Oh it doesn’t matter how long it take just good your doing it at all. America seems to have all the cool old cars sitting around. He is young his back will be mint.
it just makes me happy. i drove everything home in my day. never thought about what could go wrong. this just bring back memories of tiping fuel in shit till it runs
Reminds me of my dad’s old paddock badger one that looked just like this one except he jerry rigged the engine and front suspension from a Subaru 1600 into it it was pretty sketchy though the front and rear wheels were totally different and the front suspension was held together with box section and angle iron
Haha nice... Favourite feature for me, is the keep left sign impregnated in the rear guard, almost certainly from one of her last thrashings.. I'd love to see that as a permanent fixture 👌
Everything about this video is wrong!! Now every hillbilly “like me” is going to try and get any old, forgotten and left behind vehicle going again from young teenager to old man!! I love it…!!❤❤❤💪🏼🔥🔥🔥
Everyone needs a mate like Mitch, I'm sure the words 'this isn't a good idea' have ever crossed his mind
We all do:) hahahah never
Wow that SATSUMA just keeps running like a champ!
And will
If you dont know about the satsuma the satsuma is main car in my summer car
@@abamvaro3398 nah i know, on game it blows head gaskets more than all Subarus combined
satsuma is datsun 100a that is datsun 1200coupe
I cannot believe that it ran and started as easy as it did. You've inspired me to get my mazda REPU going as a rat-rod instead of a super nice restoration. I already have a 13bt and now it just needs some floors, brakes and tires to pass here I think!
Go for it mate.
Who said you needed a shiny paint job anyway.
Please do
You will enjoy it and people will love seeing it. I would rather see a car with some character driven then a car in a shed for 5 years.
I seen my first REPU in real life today love them.
@@lowstandards5269 👍
lol i guess this is inspiring more than 1 rotary guy to jusy say fuk it n let er go boom boom
Don't get it right, get it running
This is absolutely heroic

Thanks so much.
Oh yeah nice Datsuns always seem to be attached to good memories with mates.
Old Datsuns never die !
Never ever
I have the same engine bute mine is a nissan 1400 bakkie
Logic says this shouldn't have been possible... Wow!
I’ve never seen metal flap in the wind like paper. But after this video I can no longer say that.
Epic video. Keep ‘em coming
Haha so weird it’s so thin.
Thanks mate
I thought it was the bonnet resting there at first, then I realised it was the paper metal roof 😆
haven't laughed so hard in ages! what a blast. must be the most reliable cars ever
I’m glad:) yeah travel the earth
Old cars are
Soo good mate my 70 year old dad was cracking up through the hole episode expecaly the jumps haha
Haha love that:)
Awesome hahahahaha yeah I wanna show my old girl she had one I used to get her to do single pegga skids in when she dropped me off at my mates houses
@@RagdollRacingInc do it bro i bet she will love it haha
Words cannot accurately portray how much I needed this is my life. Thank you. If I ever make it back to Oz, your shop is the first place I'm going. :)
Thanks for watching:)
And you welcome to drop in anytime
I smiled the whole way through this video!! Takes me back to the days of paddock bashers at our family farm!! Once made a dato convertable!! She was my favourite machine!! ❤😀👍👌
I’m so happy you enjoyed it.
You guys are the standard I love on TH-cam. As low as you go is what life about. Keep up the amazing journeys. Mitch is the man. 👍❤️🇨🇦
Thanks so much:) yeah Mitch makes these builds even better.
You got that right Jay.👍❤️🇨🇦
I bet if datsun/nissan sees this, they would feel so accomplished knowing their creation can still be driven like a frankenstein on the road :D
Oh I agree imagine how good it would make them feel.
They don’t care, they aren’t the same company as they used to, they make complete garbage now
It certainly is an astonishing achievement. There's hardly anything left of this car, with all the punishment it's been through over the years.
Absolutely hilarious how well slamming it and jumping it cleans all the loose dirt and rust out of the nooks.
Recommended cleaning method you should try it.
@@lowstandards5269 next time reaching for the hose. No no, get the grinder and welder out.
That thing is mint . My favorite part was him smoking a cigarette next to the gas tank with a rag top .
This gives throwing caution to the wind meaning .
The good old days are right now !
Haha yeah I didn’t even realise till I watched the footage of how bad that is.
I love this channel so much. These videos are awesome.
Thanks so much.
Datsun 1200 coop was my 1st car and 1st project car Brings back so many memories .
I wish I still had it!!!
Awesome video.
Cheers
Ah so cool.
Thanks so much.
Pissing myself laughing at Mitch with the durry in his mouth just after installing the MUCH safer fuel tank hahahaha
SAFETY FIRST!!!
Haha I didn’t even realise at the time then watched it and was like wow that’s not ideal.
Classic.
Lucky the glass is holding it together!
Cars back then were built different! Amazing, I just found your channel, I absolutely love this!!!
Absolute madness in the best possible way.... love it.
Got to be one of the best videos this year by far, good stuff love the channel keep up the good work 👏
Thanks so much:) really appreciate the kind words.
The chassis flex after the jumps tho. The car's only form of suspension.
PS You nailed the ride height.
Haha yeah it’s not real structural anymore.
absolutely love it made the rusty Datsun into a big go cart looks cool with the wheels as well
A car many would scrap has turned into a fun car.
Mitch the madman strikes again, well done guys
This thing cracks me up. It’s got the “J touch,” love it!!
I actually want to see more of this Rotsun from wherever in the part of the world you are, if it can come back from being a thrashed rally car then who knows what possibilities lay in store for it!
Australia and if I had the time it would get all my love.
I dont even know where to begin with this one. Love watching you boys just have fun lol. I guess trailer skids are so last season, limo roof skids are hot!
Hahah yeah get with it.
I feel you could up me with it.
Challenge?

"The great ozzy skid off!"

Best engines
Lots of these used in forklifts. Now I know why!! Legendary engines.
I’d love to watch you guys restore it, Ik it’ll be hard but it’ll be a blast watching you do metal work.
Oh if we had time.
was a bit surprised to see clear sky with natural clouds like this throughout the video but the last 4 minutes set me straight.
It’s beyoodiful!
Great feelin to get a build runnin

Outstanding work gentlemen.

Reminds me of my dad’s old paddock badger one that looked just like this one except he jerry rigged the engine and front suspension from a Subaru 1600 into it it was pretty sketchy though the front and rear wheels were totally different and the front suspension was held together with box section and angle iron
And I bet you have the best memories in that car.

Thanks so much
@@lowstandards5269 😀👍
Wicked video boys, love the concept!! Now, where can I find one of these old bangers......??
Most of them are at scrap sadly
Haha nice...
Favourite feature for me, is the keep left sign impregnated in the rear guard, almost certainly from one of her last thrashings..
I'd love to see that as a permanent fixture 👌
Yeah same as soon as I seen that I knew it had to stay
Thought I knew what Rough was, then you boys do this... LMFAO
Everything about this video is wrong!!
Now every hillbilly “like me” is going to try and get any old, forgotten and left behind vehicle going again from young teenager to old man!!
I love it…!!❤❤❤💪🏼🔥🔥🔥
Wrong is normally fun.
Thank you:)
FURRRRKING LOVE THIS VID DUDE
