mikeys toy[RL] Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 I just bought a rusty '76 B210 (120Y) Notchback for $50usd. It actually has less than 100,000mi on it and there was nothing wrong with it when parked. pics next week Quote
7shades Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 120y's RUUUUULE Does it have an A12 or A14? Both are just as much fun as a K motor.... inf@$kendestructable! Quote

Anyway Compared to a Corolla, the panels are thinner, the interior plastics are cheaper and nastier, the general build quality is terrible, and the frames are lighter and twist and split all over the place when you put any sort of serious power through them, which is why its always better not to, unless you're going to put a cage in and seam weld the whole car. Oh and the gearboxes are poo. That being said, a stock 120 with an A12 engine will run rings around any rolla with a 3k.... with an opened up (carb and exhaust) A14 they are a legitimate road weapon. My old one would leave V6 commodore drivers blinking repeatedly in disbelief as this shitty old dented up datto tore away from them at the lights, and held them off quite easily up to 100kph... I miss my datto :D Quote
