I finally have pics of my ute. Its taken me a while, and the pics are somewhat out dated, but hey, pics are pics. They are available on my web site



Now you's can all see why I'm chasing a new bumper... that one is not only white, but twisted aswell.

while your at the site, take a peek at the YZ400 photos
comments welcome

ahh bout time! looks good... better than what i expected
all the hard work has paid off?

Is that an L20B? Looking good!

This photo was taken about a week after I bought it. It came with corrolla mags (yuk, but hey they were mags) and two litre motor (a clapped out mitsubishi L200 motor... YUK... but it had a weber and five speed) It also had a broken engine mount, so it wasn't too comfortable to drive, as the engine was resting on the cross member.
It also came with a cd player and four wheel disc brakes. There was a fair bit of rust most of which has been repaired, pics on website. The front ball joints were gone aswell, so it steered like a pig.

The good side was it cost me $2000 which i thought was pretty reasonable.

This rebuild which is taking like 8 months, is a huge upgrade. L200 motor to L20b.. why would anyone put a mitsubishi motor into a datto... I had to save it...

Good work. You must be happy turning it back into a real Datto again.
