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

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
