Have you tried this company: http://www.fibreglasscarparts.com/datsun_1200_parts

I see they list a fiberglass dash for $250.00 Aus

yeah racetech tried that place, sad that it has closed down. Yeah stockies will be the first things that go when i get it back. New wheels are $1400 with rubber. so its not a bad price to pay for good wheels i guess.

Nice work on this build mate. I think my ute may get a similar colour to yours. Looks the goods mate. Did you strip it back to a rolling shell for the paint? What have you desided to do about your dash? I also like the look of those glass dashes. Love the look of your seats mate. Do you know if there going to fit?

when it comes to paint it will be sanded right back, as for the dash i think i'm just gonna get this one re done. as it only has the one crack. Yeah seats should go straight in, if not just modify the rails. Yeah i like the fiber glass dashes but no one is making them anymore (that i know of) but i have contacted some companies but it will be about triple the price of the original one i was looking at, which is too much, so ill take the clock of out my dash and replace with a tacho.

I have been thinking, what can i do to the a12 to give it a bit more go?
i only want to spend roughly $2k on it. i dont have much knowledge in mechanics and probably wouldnt do any of the work myself. so i wasnt sure if it would be a better idea to get an a14/a15 and work on that or two upgrade the a12? some advise needed.

2K wont get you very far if you arent doing anything yourself. might get the engine a stock rebuild but not any huge power gains

could do a turbo setup for that money but only if you can do it yourself
