Yeah the doors are fine.. Infact im pretty sure they are dent free...

Mate... Everybody asks me that.

To the point i have taken a few people to have a look for themselves.

The chassis is completely stuffed, head on into a tree, the passenger floor pan is pushed right in, cant really even sit in the passenger side...

I wish it was rebuildable...

For Sale:

1 x White 4 door sedan, A14 rebuilt by previos owner, holley carb, 4spd manual.

1 x Yellow 2 door sedan (write-off), stock standard. Good for most parts... Engine, gearbox etc all still in good running condition)

Also included: 1 spare 4spd gearbox, and 1 A12 engine bottom end...

Looking to get around $1000 the lot, but make an offer.

Im located in Bendigo, VIC... Its pickup only.

So... Anybody interested?

Really interested in seeing more pics ! This thread is grea. Wish i had of seen it before i put my 120y on the market...

A nit of luck i dont find a buyer, then i can keep it !

Good to see that your in Melb too... You may get some business out of me if your ute comes up nicely, and my datto doesnt sell... Wouldnt that be a shame, the car doesnt sell, so i have to keep it lol...

Before anyone asks its on the market cos im really short on cash... I dont really want to see the car go, but need the money,

Thats what i had estimated... Damn my chosen career being in IT... Dont know anybody who is a painter / panelbeater

Im in half a mind of doing it myself, in very small pieces, like 1 panel at a time... Just gotta research which sort of paint would be suited to this method (dont want each panel looking a different shade)

This is my second datto, and ever since i got my first one, ive wanted to do one up nice...

Hi guys. Wondering if there is anyone in the melbourne area (western suburbs) that is experienced, and willing to do a spray job for me (paid of course)

Ill do as much prep as i can.. Just after somebody who has the tools and can spray the paint...

The car is a 120y...

Just shopping around at the moment... Anybody interested. Name a price, well see what happens !

Thanks guys !

Ah the title of that book sounds familliar...

I think thats the book i have. Very informative, but to me seems like a big job, the prep work i could handle easy enough... Just actually spraying the paint. Its a big investment to buy the paint and stuff, and a lot of work if i stuff it... Really keen to have my datto lookin smick, and to put it on the road...

My first car was a 120y 2 door (theres pics on here, look up steele87 and youll see them) and that was always gunna be a project but never got off the ground... That car has since been written off but i bought another 120y with A14, and holley carb... Not a lot of rust, and wanna have it driveable !

Please delete this thread... my mistake, should be under the thread i opened earlier...

Hi all,

Ive never sprayed a car before, but am keen to give it all a go.

Not too enthused about spraying it all at once... Is it an acceptable method to actually pray all the panels individually..

EG: Remove and prep/spray bonnet, then bootlid, then all doors, then lastly spray the parts that cant be removed...

Next would be to CAREFULLY reattach all the panels and assemble the car once again?

Interested in any tips... Or even better, somebody that can do the spray for me, at a cost of course...

Thanks...
