OK I try not to make comments about what people ask on Ebay but this one got me. 4K for an A12 that appears to be mostly stock, with the exception of sidedrafts............note 12 on the bolts. This is one I was almost tempted to ask the seller if they did any research, this price is more than people are asking for full race A12 motors............OK feel free to flame me but I had to comment.

I love all that original-ness, sitting in a crate since the seventies, it works for me.

Now reduced to $2000.

It appears to have the Excel "Sunny Power Kit" installed.

The new price seems reasonable, the problem is the shipping cost.

DATSUN B110 A12 1200CC ENGINE IN CRATE W/ SUNNY MIKUNI DUAL CARBURETORS & HEADER
You are bidding on a Datsun 1200 or A12 engine new in the crate labeled from Japan to San Franciso. Crate is also labeled RBE-A12. I assume RBE stands for rebuilt engine. Engine is new remanufactured in Japan & never installed. Judging from the age of crate I would assume it was remanufactured in the 1970s. The engine is stamped A12 with vin # 049318. Exhaust header included. Engine turns by hand. This engine will fit 71-73 Datsun Sunny B110 & B120 Sunny Truck, 1971-1973 Cherry EID (Datsun 120A & Datsun 270X Concept. Super rare find. I would prefer not to ship. I can deleiver to Carlisle, Charlotte, Englishtown or Hershey shows or can be picked up my East Earl, Pa 17519 address. If you have any questions please call Kurt ... THE INTAKE, HEADER & CARBURETORS HAVE BEEN SOLD. NO CARBS, HEADER OR INTAKE WITH THIS AUCTION.[/url]

Seems it's now just a plain stock a12 for $2000... Pretty expensive crate if you ask me!

Doh! missed that. Rebuilt A12s have been going for $400-$1200.

And this one won't fit a B110 as it is a newer style A12. It will fit a 1979-1982 Datsun B310, or can be swapped into a B110 1200 with fabricated motor mounts.

Wow, up to $1200 in the US?

Shipping from Australia might be an option for that money considering the current weak Aussie dollar.

There are 1 or 2 rebuilt a12s on eBay right now for around $500AUD which don't seem to be moving.
