Wow that's clean. Great buy!

Fine looking bird you've got there too

DD, You could be right about the vinyl floor post 1978. I still have to finish a bit around the shed before I can do anything to it. I might just leave it as it is, or maybe just a set of alloys and lowered slightly.
I still have the other ute with the missing rear tray to use as a project car.

The ute is pulling the chicks already, hey Flatto. Thanks for posting the link for this too!! It was only 5 mins drive from home.

makes me regret not keeping in touch with the 12undie ute I used to service in Freo, it was one of the last 3 that came into WA in 1985, the other two were yellow, this one was white the same as yours, same colour trim...

So that's what a new Datsun 1200 ute looks like.
Glad someone in the community bought it. Looks amazing mate.

And to think you were running out of room? ;)

Hey Sim,
Did the last of the utes '84' come with front discs as standard ?

No room inside the shed, but plenty of room out!
Drums all round Zig. With the lack of options this this has, I'm probably lucky it's got brakes at all!

It has all the options except Radio. Disc brakes did not appear until 1990 in Japan. Gotta love the utility of the time.

sikyne,
That is one clean 1200!! Looks like brand new.
Is that original paint??

Finally got this thing registered today. I'm loving driving it!

I have the budget turbo project engine to put in it, but don't know if I should modify it..

couple of random pics..
