Datsun 1600 parting out

I've acquired the blue 1600 from the Christchurch hoarder, has no salvageable body panels but most of the interior's there.

Lemme know if you want anything and I'll try to come up with a price, I'm going to be disassembling it over the next couple of weeks.

Is there an L16/18 or 5 speed available John?

Yeah it would be a "rebuild only" L16 though.

In saying that, it looks very clean down the oil cap.
Doesnt smell burnt down there too.

Have you turned it over John?

Had it got the stainless sill trims still on it?

Nah I haven't even bothered to try yet. Maybe Inwill just for fun if I get time this weekend.

And kind of, it has one pretty rough sill trim, the early type with rounded off ends instead of plastic caps.

I could be interested in the engine or at least a head.

I'm asking $150 for the engine and gearbox combo

Does it have the board that sits behind the rear seat, and the board that portions off the fuel tank from the rest of the boot?

Sign me up John, I'll hoard that unless someone needs it desperately.
