Overview

“Lil Datto” joined the Mathee family during 2010, at first Lil didn’t receive a lot of attention, but during December 2010 all attention shifted towards the vehicle as Herman stripped and sold his Datsun 1400 LDV and all parts was transferred to Lil. Herman handled the complete rebuild, balance and a few other tricks of the A14 motor while Mike was on his back building a complete BMW E30 Limited Slip Differential Rear Suspension into Lil. Lil is the proud carrier of the RACETECH 1 number plate for 2011, as Herman is still busy building “Datto” and Mike agreed on lending “Lil” to him while “Datto” is being build. “Lil” is currently used as the ginny pig in regards with suspension modifications and handling seeing as the bases of the two Datsuns is almost the same.
