Just my 2 bob"s worth, the utes were produced until 85, I had boght a second hand one in 87 with 30ks on the clock what a magic ute and in fantastic condition.
I payed $5500 from Zupps at Mt Gravatt picked up an option one 5 speed from the importers for 300 bucks, fitted wheels and a disc brake front end, I had it for a few years traded in on a Honda city and got 7500 as a trade, they had it on the lot for 9500, did any one on this site buy a white 1200 ute from Southside Toyota in Woolloongabba ??
Also my stepdad sold Datsuns new in the 70"s he told me that the coupes were fully imported and you could order a five speed to be installed when it was being built, from memeory thay are all a Deluxe model.
All the other models I believe were manufactured in Oz

I am guessing someone has stopped taking there medication !!

well I am lost with this one ??

a later ute switch will fit in the column surround and should not be to difficult to wire up, some of the wiring may already be there.
The design rules in Oz for the early cars did not require hazard lights

Congrats shane, I have personally seen the quality of your work and it would
put to shame alot of "other"restorers. By the way have you told your mom you have bought another datsun ?
all the best ade
