Brendan's Datsun 1200 Coupe

This neat Datsun 1200 coupe belongs to Brendan (see his other car here - Nissan Silvia) and was kindly loaned to me (Charlotte) while my poor 1600 is being repaired (see the relevant update here). It's great to be driving a 1200 again and the loan has only reinforced my desire to once again own one! They are such a great little runabout and handle as if on rails, and with just a few mods go quite well.

Specs

  • A12 motor with flat top pistons, a15 head,32/36 Weber, cam, extractors, sports exhaust, electric thermo fan
  • 13x6" chrome wheels, Falken tyres
  • front lowered progressive king springs, adjustable negative camber, kyb shocks, rear re-set lowered rear leaves, kyb shocks.
  • Resprayed in Silver
  • Saas reclinable bucket seats (very comfy!)
  • Sports steering wheel

A huge thanks to Brendan for being such a great mate and loaning me his baby. :)
