Hi All,

Been around here for many years. I took Winston a few years back but i also had to pass him on to the next guy as i got into Sprites more.

I purchased this Morry over the weekend from Gosford. Jack will be competing in the Shit box Rally from Adelaide to Cairns via Alice Springs and all the tracks in between.
Our Team is called "Two for the Road" so please feel welcome to go the the Shitbox web site find our team and donate Yellow Convertible

Lots of work to do as it was worse than described so a bit of metal work and mechanical work needs to be done over the next little while.

Cannot post a pic ?????

Thanks
Scott C

welcome Scott - we look forward to your build and rally progress.

There is another car on here that did the rally a few years ago too.

Posting pics is easy ~ just get a photobucket account and use that.

Rear window area has rust an lots of filler, Chassis rails are not good and lots more when i get looking into it i guess. Datsun 1200.
Has tele shocks all round and havnt looked to see if brakes are std or not.
Need to get it started this weekend to have a bit of a drive in it around the yard but its going to take a bit of time to get it up to travelling around 6000 klms next year

Steve,
It is a metal Bracket. Will get a photo if you want one. Looks to be very sturdy

glad you were able to pass winston on




history of the pass on
winston was donated to me as a project
then home owner went sour
it was pass winston on or be evicted in 14 days
we moved out end of lease
that property owner has made it impossible for us to have any projects
every rental contract on a rental ....no matter which property
extra conditions worded has been "no unregistered vehicles on the property or in the street


DH "
