I thought it was about time I put up a pic of the ute.

That'd make a good Avatar for you.

It looks pretty cool.

Good idea, thanks.

Done but it lost a little of the quality.

Love the mags!! any info on them, name, style etc.

look like mitsubishi sigma rims, my neighbour has similar ones on his sigma

All that I know about the mags is that they have the name "Zona" stamped on them (13" x 5.5"). They are a little different to the sigma ones.

I got the mags from Freak so hopefully he will see them being put to good use

that is one good looking ute. what year model is it.

it is the first one i have seen with the same tarp straps as mine which are on the side of the body instead of the standard hooks.

It's a 1984 model with 87,000 km on the dial, I am the second owner(bought it from my girlfreinds aunty who bought it new, I even have all the shipping slips from japan!)

The tarp straps must have been a dealer option but I'm only guessing. I've noticed not many have this style.

It looked a bit tired and neglected when I got it but I think I've put a bit of life back into it.

I've done a few mods to it but not a lot, still running the A12.

thats a very neat 1200.wat would you call that colour.cream or somthin.im only the 3rd owner of my dato 1200 ute and i have the slips from it's 1st owner wen he bought it and how much for.every engine service and everything.

It's actually yellow, the picture was taken late in the afternoon so it has changed the colour slightly. I'll track down the paint code.
