If you dont put the Budget Turbo project motor in the ute I'm sure you could sell it in Ebay for $56
'1 x Datsun 1200 motor for sale - Only driven on an engine Dyno on Sundays'

Awesome! You did say you wanted a road going ute a fair while back!

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..

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

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

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!

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

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

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

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...
