Yes, there are about 10 for sale every month in USA alone.

I have a Datsun 1200 2-door Sedan daily driver, $4500 and it's yours. You can find better bargains if you are patient, I'm in no hurry to sell as I love this little car.


Thanks for the info. I was getting so damn frustrated. I shall have to try and sit calmly counteracting my instant-gratification desire Us silly 20-somethings have developed and see what happens.

Salvage yards? In general they are a poor place to look for any complete car. There are some excecptions. For complete cars of the rare variety, eBay and Craigslist are the most active sales-places in USA.

There is a 1200 in a salvage yard in Portland, Oregon this month. Within days the fenders, windshield, grille, tachometer and many other parts were sold. LA usually has one somewhere in a wrecking yard, but with hundreds of yards in LA, how will you find it?

True enough. The problem is doubly compounded by the use of road salt in this part of the county. If the salvagers don't get to it, time will have its way.
