you don't have to hack the thing to the shithouse to fit a rotor. i don't mind the nice small cars like KE10's with a bit of brap. suits better than a big straight six

wow! someone has gone to all the trouble to make it look EXACTLY like a Datsun 1200 ute! like removing the bonnet vents (ke30-35-55) or bonnet hump (ke10-11-15) they have also put skinny little datsun bumpers on it, put a datsun 1200 shaped windscreen/side windows in it, put that indented pinstripe that datsuns have and corollas dont, all the details, like the 1200 style vent in the B pillar, and the datsun grille, and even a datsun badge on the front, have been attended to!
hangon!! it IS a 1200!

It's a publica ute,Toyota has been making publica utes since the early 60's.We called them a Toyota 700,700cc air cooled flat twin.We did'nt get the 700 ute in OZ.The late ones had the 4K.In the 60's their were tiara utes,corona utes,corona MK2 utes and crown utes,so really a datsun 1200 ute looks like a publica ute,not the other way around.

I got mine from an old couple who imported the car from South Africa back in 1980s, so after the grandpa passed away she decided to sell it.
They had it up for 2500 with reg,i didnt even bargain.Bought it on the spot.
