Hey guys
I have owned a few cars in my time but for every single car i have owned i have taken it somewhere for someone else to build and spent big bucks doing so..
I wanted to learn and what better way then buying a project car..
i have 0 mechanical knowledge 0 body work skills but i feel I'm a easy learner and eager to learn everything out there.. so sorry if i ask stupid questions ...
ok so bit of a back story - i have always wanted to get a project car for yrs now and i have always been a datto fan .. all my mates are into cars and all have nice old school rigs... i was out on the drink with them on Saturday night got completely wasted .. Sunday i woke feeling like death and that lasted all day.. Sunday night approx 11.09pm my phone goes off with a notification " congratulations on winning the auction" i was like HUH - and thats how i bought a 200b .
i bought it obviously sight unseen and it has yet to turn up yet - (GET MY CAR) is picking it up for me next week...
i have spoken to old owner via the phone who tells me the car is a solid car with just some minor rust near the left hand tail light ( see pics below)
he also said it has a suspected blown head gasket and the needle in the carby has gotten stuck but it will start and drive ..
I'm not sure of my plans and I'm really not sure what i have bought lol .
i have no idea what yr model it is but i do know it was last registered in VIC in 08 and spent its life in the country ...
i don't know what i have gotten myself into I'm so completely lost / useless I'm scared
i can do the basic stuff like oil changes etc etc but nothing else ... I'm here to learn I'm here to read I'm here to ask stupid questions...
to me in the pics it looks straight but you datto nuts might see issues ... ( don't have engine bay pic will upload tomorrow)
