I recently just brought a datsun 120y coupe. i'm absolutely in love with it. bit of rust that needs to be taken care of. it runs well although the gearbox is a bit loose. if anyone knows where i can find a cheap right front panel and probably a right headlight for my baby that would be great, for i found out the cement poles dont like being hit  it breaks my heart everytime i see it. its not a big dent but big enough to hurt me. any help anyone can give me will be great. i'm as good at fixing old cars as i am with more modern ones  my email is x.crazy_misfit.x@hotmail.com if anyone has any ideas or could help me. i'll try check it once a week or so. thanks so much for reading this. i would love to fix my baby up. i'll post some pictures on here soon once i get my internet running and once i figure out how to use this site. |

Welcome to the site. Im sure some one on here would have a guard that you could buy. Also what part of Tas are you in. Im thinking around the Wynyard area? If so I might have a head light that will fit. Cheers and welcome to the site.

i do live in wynyard. if you live in that area you might have seen my car sometimes. i'm very upset about the dent even if its small. if you have a head light that would a great start for me.
Datsunreal: how far south are you??

the guard would be great, same as the headlight. dont really feel like being pulled over by cops because i have one headlight. the gearbox i reckon should be fine. goes into gear fine, its just a bit loose.

If you lift the boot from your gear stick, there is a pin with a circlip fixing it to the box. Remove circlip carefully remove pin lift out shifter, there is a bush(or should be) these flog out replace with new bush and reverse fitting process.
Voila!
Panel bolts tend to snap easily, CRC and gentle encouragement. Good luck!
