Had a good weekend----- dragged home a 1200 coupe with an A13. Had been sitting on a farm for some time.

Fitted another starter motor, battery and some petrol and the bugger fired up no problems.Sounded good and no smoke!

Now the question is what to do with a spare 1200 coupe without a motor?

a13 ..cooool. Wonder where that came from? Probably an import in the 80s? Still.. very cool.

How do you know of all these bargains Mal? Your always towing home oddball Dattos and parts... Do i really need another project....... Hmmmmmm

does the 1200 coupe have much rust

looks pretty clean.. nothing some sills wouldn't fix...

Marvellous engines!!

Mal. If you get the time, quickly pop the sump and see if it does have the scalloped A12 crank. Pendles from 'woomba has the other A13 and he found a scalloped crank. Be interesting to hear.

There you have it. Two members (that I know of from Aus) with genuine A13's.

Nice work. Now give that 1200 the quick flick!...... nah just playing. They're a great car.

Very jealous by the way.

I think Feral and Dodgeman also have one so that makes at least 4 in Oz
I now have the full range, in varying condition, A10 A12 A13 A14 A15
Dundee has created a Monster!!

you have to cross the road for A12A! Datto Apprentice.. ha ha

No no, they're building A13's I think.

It wouldn't be far off to assume that they might have original A13's though.

But so far only you and pendles have genuine STAMPED A13 engines.

Nice!
