Dont forget this is tomorrow guys and gals!!

I got an ok one. Needs sanding as the paint is old and cracked. I can email/sms pics. In Balga

I am leaning towards oldschool atm. Just SUs and exhaust and maybe do up a head on the side ready to swap over. The A12 in it had just been rebuilt before I got it. Seems to have tappet noise even though I adjusted them all to spec. Might go down another .05?

Neil you have a box of everything in your shed dont you?

Cheers mick. I got the wheels off a bloke with a red corolla wagon in ballajura doing a sr conversion. Tyres that were on them were stamped 1987... I think one is a different offset though slightly

You may remember me from 7-8 years ago having a little red 1000 wagon. Well I started to move away from dattos and for a long time ive been building 4wds (still work in a 4wd shop) not to mention selling everything I owned to travel NZ with the mrs.
Anyway a few months back a blue 1200 popped up on a facebook page for $800 licensed, running and complete. Just partially stripped for panel and paint. I said to myself if I could sell my current daily ($500 Terios i got over the pits) by that weekend I would buy it. So off I went after selling the terios for $1500 within 24hrs with a car trailer to pick this 1200 sedan up sight unseen. After a bit of a disagreement on what "licensed" ment, the guy payed the rego and I towed it home. It was a little more stripped then I was expecting but nothing I couldnt handle.
Panel and paint is a little rushed as I needed it as a daily. It still presents well and as with any datto is a never ending project. Rust wasnt too bad. Corners under the bonnet were pretty bad and cut out a bit of the floor. otherwise just little bits here and there

Currently making some coilovers for the front and flipping a spare leaf pack for the back so see how low it will sit. Might have to flare the guards just a little to squeeze the 13x6s in.
Dont know what direction to go in with drivetrain too. Run a suckthrough turbo setup on the A12? A14? SR20D with webers and a Dizzy? Im loving the economy and reliability of it though as its my sole transport to and from work 25km away every day.

Ive attached a couple pics as i bought it and a couple as it is now
