Model: 1981 Datsun 1200 ute

Colour: Silver

VIN#: Coming very soon

Registration Number: Unregistered

Mileage: Unknown KMs

Price: $3000

I recently purchased this off a mate however I've decided I don't have the time to spend getting it on the road. I haven't got much information about the car, but from what i can tell:

-The body is pretty straight with only minor rust in the floor of the tub.

-The engine seems quite healthy. It starts easily, however sometime when it's warm it starts to miss on one cylinder; probably a minor ignition problem.

-It has a weber carb, extractors, and 17" rims.

-2 of the tyres look to be quite new; the other 2 are in good condition.

I acquired this car off my girlfriend a year or so ago and it has been my work car since then. It's a good, economical and practical car. It runs reasonably well, although the auto is a little lazy. The body is fairly straight but the paint is average. I cant imagine it would need much for a RWC.

Will accept trades... Could maybe put some money on top.

If it was a really worthwhile trade i could also include my GC8: http://www.rexnet.com.au/forum/index.php?/topic/159516-plain-green-my98/page__p__2291818__fromsearch__1#entry2291818

  • 2 weeks later...

Datsun 1200 ute Ad update.

  • The body straight. The only rust I've spotted is some minor rust in the tub.
  • It has been resprayed. I'd say it was just done with a rattle can but considering it actually looks pretty good.
  • It has a vinyl tonneau cover which fits great.
  • The interior has been partially reupholstered but still needs some items to complete.
  • The engine seems very healthy. It starts easily and runs smoothly. It was developing an occasional "miss" when warm but after playing around with the leads it seems to have gone away.
  • The gearbox and clutch seem to be in great condition.
  • It has a weber carb, extractors, and 17" rims.
  • 2 of the tyres look to be quite new; the other 2 are in pretty good condition.
  • It has a CD player with amp, 6x9's and tweeters. It doesn't seem to be wired up at the moment but its all there ready to go.
  • It has an alarm and remote central locking. I haven't had these working yet... could be that they're not wired in or could just be a battery issue. Shouldn't be hard to get running.
  • It also comes with what i assume to be lowering blocks and shackles (not fitted).

$2500

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
