i have the same problem with my datsun 1200 ute. im taking it to a fabricator to have a look and give me a quote. i need it done 100% because i have to also get it re-registered. Hopefully it doesn't cost an arm and a leg haha.

if its only a floor its not 2 hard. i just did mine and ive only just taught myself how to weld. just use some 1mm zincaneil. it will take a whole weekend though (if u get stuck into it) if u just do 1 side at a time then it wont look so buchured and gives u confidence to do the others when u see what sorta good job uve done :P. remember its only a thin ass piece of metal :)

practice makes perfect
goodluck

hmm...i had sold some dude a talon with a microtech and now he's selling it, but for some strange reason he does'nt want to sell it to me. even more of a reason to pick up the datsun...i just dont know if i have the energy or patience to restore/build something like that...

unless it's my car. Very reliable.

Mine is a daily drivers. 37 years old and counting.

I venture to say if you put a turbo motor in it, it will not be reliable.

thanks man. i just hope it'll be reliable enough for me to drive it as my everyday car. the guy only wants 500 for it and the outside body is very very solid., i mean i've seen work done on my cousins 64 impala super sport but he's only taking that car out maybe once a year. i jus wonder if i do that work, would it be reliable enough to drive daily. im also putting in a 13b turbo or 4g63 turbo in the car....lemme know if you guys out in aussie have parts or anything of that nature. thanks for the reply man, greatly appreciate it.

You get them from another 1200.
Or you can just fabricate them. There are no instructions. Most body shops know how to do it. Just buy a Chevy hood, cut and bend it and start welding.

hey whats up guys/girls., im about to buy a 1200 fastback and the floors are rusted. does anyone know a reliable place where i can get floor pans or since im new is there a link on how to do the work using sheet metal? any and all info would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
