Hi All,
I'm trying to find a 1200 Sedan shell/roller somewhere near Geelong, Melbourne or Ballarat.

Hopefully some nice kind forum person has one that I can buy Because it's about time I upgraded my daily from a Ford to a Datto.

Cheers

how much you willing to spend

Well, since I'm looking for a shell I'm thinking under 1000. Doesn't even need to have wheels, struts etc. As long as it has 4 doors and a bonnet I'm happy.

So for maybe around 4-500 for an average (needs a bit of body work), less for a banged up (80% rust) one, more for straight, all panels etc. Just really depends on the shell but definately under 1k. Hope that's not being unreasonable?

was one on ebay for $30 if you want to travel to almost morwell.... needed some work but hadd all the doors, not front guards or bonnet but another $150 on ebay and make those copies fit.

im in sydney i have a datsun 1200 sedan auto if you after a bare body you can buy mine.??? offers no wheels or even diff the car is stripped with a front passanger hit on it i have a front cut to fix it up thou no bonnet no guards

i have a complete running 1200 sedan sitting at home under a cover,
which i may be convinced to let go for the right price.

It was my daily until i bought a vehicle which
can carry my tools. I know its not what your
after nor is it in your price range.

But its there and like i said i could be convinced if you dont have any
luck finding anything else.

Sorry to hijack the thread but if there is something in Adelaide like this I am keen too!!!

Hey guys,
thanks for the help, sorry Ange, I'm a poor final year uni student and will have to pass, hehehe. Thanks also Billy.

Looks like the decision was made for me though, I bought a 180b sss about a month ago from a mate and he was keeping it on his farm for me but he said that if I don't pick it up on Thursday he's going to crush it to make space...... and it's in good condition for a $70 car.

So looks like I'll be bringing home a 180b this week...... I REALLY wanted a sedan because I have a fully rebuilt a12 with cam, weber and extractors for it (and sedans are very sexy in my opinion) but looks like I'm moving to an L series.

I hope people will keep talking to me , I know it's not a 1200..... but at least it's a Datsun. And it is getting a suck through L18 turbo which is going to the LPG place this week to try and tune it for straight gas (I'm rather worried about this). But a L18 turbo 180bSSS daily and a CA18Det 1200 weekend car is a pretty nice setup I think

sounds like fun to me, but purple jim you sure do have a nice list of cars for a poor uni student...lol good to see people have their priorities right. legend
