What kind of motor is in that?!

What kind of motor is in the car on the home page right now?
Possibly Datsun F10? Who built it? Any more photos?

That's a project I started installing a Datsun 1200 motor into one of
my Honda 600's. I sold the subframe and all to Tony Weston. He
completed the project but used a Datsun 1500 instead of the 1200. He
autocrossed it many times. He sold it 2 years ago for $1000 or so to
a guy in San Luis Obispo Ca. The guy took a bus to San Jose Ca and
drove it back to SLO.

PS Rear wheel drive.

I thought I recognised the valve cover as being Datsun. The Datsun
F10 was set up with front wheel drive, but the engine was still
mounted in line with the car. Neat setup, but I don't think there
were too many Datsun F10s built.
