The Datsun you are referring to had chrome cylinders and had a reputation for being hard to kill. The fact that it was at idle probably helped to keep from killing it completely. An engine running under power at highway speeds will not survive an overheat to the point of seizing. By the way those Datsun engine were know to out live the car by a long way
