| Hi all.
This morning at a tow-auction I happened to peek under the hood of a 1967 
Datsun 1300 pickup truck. What I saw there made me wonder what I had just 
passed up. The valve cover said "MG" and was definitely part of this truck 
originally. Was this an A series like what you would find in a Midget? Does 
anybody know anything about these applications? I had heard that A series 
engines had found their way into several machines besides cars, but I didnt 
know Datsun used them. The plate on the firewall said 1299cc. Tell me there 
was no value to this setup in the Spridget world, as the truck sold for 1$ to 
a scrapper. It was complete, right down to the air cleaner.
