PLEASE READ BEFORE SENDING ANY INQUIRIES-

Looking at selling one of my project cars. Its a 1977 Datsun 120Y 4 door sedan.
I have had this car for a few years now and it has been a slow on going project but I am now looking at moving and cant take it with me and my Ta22 is due for a freshen up so want to focus in that now rather then the Datto. Heres a run down about the car-

Engine- 1.2L A12 engine
Transmission- 4 Speed Manual

The engine and gear box were swapped from a donor car I bought as I wanted the manual box and the owner of the donor car said the engine had been reconditioned 3-4 year ago but the car was never put back on road so had only been driven in his backyard every now and again. This I can not confirm but the engine runs amazing, doesnt blow smoke only problem is the accelerator pump on the carby had let go so I have to tip some fuel in the carby to her her started but then shes fine. I do however have a 32/36 weber carb and adapter plate to go on her.

The interior is in veryyyy good condition for a car this age. Its Black vinyl and presents very very well. I have installed brand new black plush pile carpet bought from Knox Auto-carpets which just finishes the interior off.

The body is the only thing really left to complete the car. Over the years I have had it its been blue, purple, vinyl wrapped then I stripped her back, primed her fixed dents ect and started painting her a custom green. Amazingly there was no rust in the old girl that I found. I had 2L of paint mixed up to test the colour in the engine bay to make sure I liked it, which I did so I used the rest of the paint to start the painting process, I then had another 2L mixed to finish the job but some how, even though I had the exact paint formula and used the same place for both lots of paint, the 2nd lot was a good 5-6 shades lighter. So the car is now half painted, I started rubbing the panels which had the 2nd lot of paint on them back but have lost all motivation to re-paint her again.

I would also look into new front guards as these ones have been flared, not the best job but I was looking into running bolt ons to fit my wheels but unless the new owner is going that route id get new front guards. I know they can be bought new for $99ish each from a place in NSW, I have placed a WTB ad on a few sites to find some before I sell it.

As far as I can remember all lights work perfectly, but the "econometer" rev guage thing doesnt work, un-sure about the speedo, but new speedo cables are like $20 on eBay. I have 2 sets of bumpers, one set is painted black to go with the green (looks better IMO) other set is still chrome.

I have loads of spares that can come with the car if the buyer wants them. These range from panels, glass, grille, wipers, lights, lots of engine parts, manifolds, fuel pumps, dizzy, alternators ect ect few boxes total IIRC.

THE CAR WILL COME ON STOCK WHEELS. I can help source wheel from Japan for the buyer but the wheels on the car, and in the background are not for sale. Will need to be removed via trailer or flat bed as there is no rego or rwc and some parts are off the car.

That's all I can think of right now, but I have loads of progress photos so can send them through if needed. This would have a nice easy project to finish, as I said ive had it for too long and just lost motivation to finish her. Contacting me on here is probs easiest and I can forward my number and address for viewing.










Have loads more photos that I can email through, or will make a folder on photobucket and link it here later tonight.
