Great little first car mate! My first car was a 1200 ute and to this day i still have a spot for any of them. So after a few years away from dato's all together i have a project going on now. Good luck with the build and it looks like a good base to start with and a nice colour

while its apart, get them to weld in a new auto 1200 or 120 y tunnel- incase you ever want to do a conversion or 5 speed gearbox one day.
