Hi team
Looking at the datsun sunny from bradford in the forsale section
Whats you opionions on it guys and girls

I've had datsuns before
120a FII and dad still has a 120y estate

I can't weld but am keen to start to learn as the vehicle does need alot of welding work on it or is it too much to take on as a newbie?

what price do you think I should be paying for it and is it a stay clear or jump in feet first.

Whats parts availabiliy like for the car?


Hope this is in right secton and if not appologies and please move to correct sub forum.

Be truful please team

this one? www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261248038039?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

if you're keen on learning and not afraid of getting your hands dirty then i say go for it. certainly looks fixable and it has a few panels to get you started. don't expect to get fixed up within a couple of months though....

panels are the hardest bit to get hold of, mechanical/service parts are not a problem.

bear in mind it will always cost more to do a rough car up, but you can spread the cost and learn something whilst you do it. as well as putting another cool car back on the road

Yea that's the one like

Was looking for 3 door but can't find a one anywhere so I think I'm going to settle for a four door and possibly this one

if your heart is set on a two door then wait for one to come up for sale or ask around. or else you might not want to put the effort into fixing up a car you're not totally happy with.

well after lisining to your advice and my dads I'm going to take a miss on this and wait for a 2 door b310 or a 2 door b110

Thanks for the advice AL
