There is a difference?

My ute is a 79 model, so maybe you could tell me?

bump

Anyone? Had an offer of one, but eard nothing since. Still keen to get my hands on one, and will consider spending a bit extra on a A14 or A15 if anyone has something worth looking at. Willing to travekl a few 100km too, if required.

No sense of adventure :P

I dont mind the bullbar, probably one of the nicest examples I have seen, and would make a huge difference if you hit a roo at speed, but the crack pipe price is a joke, and whoever is responsible for that rear wing needs to taken out the back and shot

+11ty for the valiant wagon

throw a few grand at it for suspension tweaks / upgrades, chuck an after market air con unit and a LPG conversion, and relax and enjoy.

I, for one, would love to see a pic of your model. Purely from a proffesional inters=est point of view (another 3D modeller here)

Chasing a 1200 long motor in reasonable condition to keep my wheels on the road while I fix a knackered rear main seal in my current boat anchor, and prep for my 5 speed fitting.
Will consider something that needs a rebuild, but would prefer a bolt in and drive capable engine.

I personally think this one is almost as good. Genuine 10 000km??

My ute had 2 owners (one for 30 years) and I didnt bother haggling over the $3K ask. Between shaking on the deal and collecting the ute (about 5 days) the owner had 2 offers for more than the asking price.

Luckily for me, he stood by the deal he shook on.

The thing about these car, I have discovered, is I dont see the prices for them ever going down. If you are looking for a car to restore or modify then there really isnt anything that compares to a classic datsun for price and availability of parts and information.

Thanks for that Jesse. I dont suppose you would have any photos of yours floating about? I "think" I get wghat you are on about, but want to be sure.

Also, I have no idea who "mal" is. My box is being rebuilt by a mate in Bunbury, not a shop.
