I think he's pissed off at people that keep their dogs chained up in the yard literally all day and night and never let them inside? I mean, it's a lovely thing to do, but seems kinda a weird thing to yell about on your bitchin' bosozoku-spaceship roadmaster.

There were a few issues in news going around where people were keeping their dogs on tethers (chain rope, etc..) all the time and cops were being called multiple times to places where the dogs would choke themselves.

Going with a trash bag instead of glass saves like ten pounds, that's an upgrade.

Amusing how the left bumper is trimmed but the right one is not. Almost like they gave up on this project after realizing how stupid it was.

It appears to be a wrecker/push bumper and it sure as hell looks like it got used. Sure, it's ugly. But it appears to be functional and necessary for whatever that thing was doing.

It looks like a push vehicle for the salt flats. If that is true the underside of it will look like an iron melting science project.

Wow, a car with a good message on the side; that's nice. Also pretty much how my dog was living before I adopted him so I probably should have understood it.

Why do you want a 120Y so much? It's pretty much the most undesirable car Datsun ever sold. I'd rather a 1200, 1600, 180b, 1500 ute, or of course a fairlady/z coupe. Never been a datto fan but liked the 180B, the ute and the 1600 and the Zs, but the 120Y never appealed in any way. E: holy poo poo, there's six 120Ys listed on carsales.com.au australia, they range from $3k to $12k. Get a rare datto 120y panel van in Australia for only a $6k asking price  https://http:/ /www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Datsun-120Y-1977/SSE-AD-2836895/?Cr=0&sdmvc=1 Fo3 fucked around with this message at 19:26 on Sep 20, 2014 |

Because its actually pretty cool, body looks in decent shape, says it runs for a small manual rwd vehicle and you really dont see them too often any more at all. Plus 250 dollars come on

The corolla of that vintage was better, and more common down here, (it's pretty much the car that Toyota built their reputation on). But yeah, can't argue on price, I wonder how much they are asking for them down here these days... E: $4k-$17.5k Fo3 fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Sep 20, 2014 |

You should really do it. Anything that starts, yet alone drives, is worth $250. I mean, whats the scrap value? Probably not a whole lot less. I'm digging those rims/wheel covers. DO IT

The bmw i drove for 2 weeks without putting a dollar into. at this point over a year later i have maybe $1500 more into it including summer wheels/tires and winter wheels/tires. mechanically it was $400 in sensors and $150 in the suspension. The powerstroke i have $20 for a tail light, and it's mechanically perfect. Running and driving as in i would feel confident driving it across canada. Fully functional vehicles.

Yeah, "runs and drives" but doesn't need $1K+ worth of work to make it actually roadworthy around here is rare. This is coming from somewhere that does not require any inspections.

Inspections and emissions testing here, I wouldn't risk buying a car under about $4k as being turnkey ready to go without going over it bumper to bumper, and even then I'd probably want to lowball it, likely due to rust.

I drove an 84 Ford Ranger truck for 2 years that I paid $450 for and only put a starter on, but that was 10 years ago. At that point, the truck was so rusty that it looked like swiss cheese. The head gasket blew about 22 months later and I just let it go.

I guess it's also dependent on what you can put up with. I dislike rot and even minor body damage. Also I like air conditioning, which virtually never loving works on anything sub $2k it seems unless you get really lucky.

I don't remember the last time I used my air conditioning other than to make sure it still worked. I live in PA so rust is my major concern. If it's visible it's probably worse than it looks. Rules out just about any Subaru and older Honda

Old f150s and c1500s are usually a good 1000 car. They require so little maintenance, really a great beater. This is 2wd though, 4x4 is always a crap shoot.
