Well now that I'm almost finished one of my 3 projects I have finally had to think about actually driving them and how thats all going to work.
Consequently I think I need to sell one of them off and, as much as I don't wanna sell anything Datto related I guess its just the sensible thing to do.
So I'm looking for EOIs on my '76 120Y
Stats:
A14 on the rego papers - Currently A12 with H75 A14 head (A14 block dissassembled awaiting rebuild)
36/36 DCD Weber Dyno tuned by Autotech in Hume (44.7rwkw with smokey A14)
4-1 Headers
56A 4 Spd
2 inch free flowing exhaust - nice on cruise and angry on noise
Aftermarket steering wheel & boss kit
Factory Tacho
13 inch jellies w good rubber
In the pic where the green paint at the back is I have cut some rust out and fibreglassed it up. The spare wheel well has also been cut and replated with metal to replace rust for rego.
Rust bubbles coming through on bonnet and boot but not major.
Now I also have a replacement front end for this baby that allows you to slot in L/Z/FJ/SR series engines. I think FJ and SR require trans tunnell mods but I've had a Z22 with short 720 5 speed sitting in there and it all lines up perfectly. The hyraulic clutch conversion is done. The front end includes MR30 struts and brakes (2 pot caliper - 250mm disc) with chopped springs that are the very definition of unsafe.
All that remains to make this a great street warrior is a tailshaft (and I have 2 spares + the one in the car to make another one with.
Basically my plan with this car was to have 2 drivelines that could be interchanged within a few hours. Just take the engine out unbolt engine x-mem swap it over and install different engine/box/driveshaft and off you go.
I have other engines that could go with this car for the right price (Stock Z22, Stock L20B, Z22 w L18 head rally engine) or just chuck your own L/Z donk in and blast away.
In addition I have a fair stash of A series bits that would no longer be required such as:
56A 4spds x 3
A12 Long motor
A12 heads x 3
Rocker covers x 4 - one polished DATSUN type
Hitech Headers 4-1 - look so sweet and fit with...
A12GX induction setup
A14 twin weber manifold
1 3/4 British SU x 2
1200 Factory Tacho
Weekend1000 Elec Dizzy
Ideally I'd like to sell everything A series related at once with the 120Y if possible and keep the L/Z front end for later but you never know who wants what.
So let me know if you want any more info/pics
As I said EOI at this stage, not desperate to sell just trying to gauge what I can get for it all.
