my '72 Datto coupe is going to be for sale.

I honestly have no idea what it's worth, but damn near everything is new except the engine. I bought it with the intention of restoring it, but I've never really had to. I've been able to keep it on the road (a lot) while doing most of the other mechanicals.

If anyone is interested or wants more details, feel free to post on this thread or pm me. Your suggestions or offers are most welcome.

Hi Duncan, glad to hear you are keeping it. I have a my regular 1200 for regular drive-to-work, and the side-draft 1200 for loud and exciting driving. It is nice to have two different ones. With the regular, I keep it floored most of the time. But with the side-draft I rarely get to do that.

I replaced literally everything mechanical in my Coupe (except the motor which is a great runner) and it is quiet, smooth, and rides very nice.

The sedan is an entirely different animal. Loud and exciting describes it fairly well.

I'm going to go ahead and swap my rebuilt 5-spd in the Coupe. That should make it a bit more freeway friendly.

My sedan has a H165 rear axle and springs out of a ute, and I'm putting it back to stock. I don't enjoy the log wagon ride anymore in my old age
