Im new to the site, so sorry if im posting in the wrong place.
I wanna buy a 1200 sedan but im not sure if the deal this guy is making is any good. Its a 73 with little rust on 1/4 panels. Has 1 month rego but needs a new diff and clutch plate. Wants 2400, any gud?

Whereabouts are you located (fill it in in your profile)?
For $2400 I wouldn't be concerned with a little rust in the quarters (I do mean little) but I would be concerned with the buggered diff and clutch. You can drive the car with rust, but not with a buggered drivetrain. At his price I'd want a clean, registered runner. If it was me I'd keep searching.

Sorry mate, im in sydney.
Yeh he wont drop the price at all. I mean he has trx wheels, sports exhaust and a bigger carby fitted. Still i have seen better 1200 for that price.

all i can say is be patient and a good car will come along.I had to wait over a year to find one in my budget and locality but it was worth it.They are getting hard to get but i am sure one will pop up.Sounds very expensive to me with a buggered drivetrain anyway.Because its hard to get sheet metal for them i would pay the extra for a good shell though.Mine had a buggered clutch as the old ducks lived in hilly area and liked to slip it a bit...LOL

yeh they are getting hard to find. The other thing is that im going to put a fresh engine which will require a change of the diff anyway, but i still want to use it as a run around until i get the money to put the new engine in.
