i found this at our local craigslist. what do you guys think? classic ba to? good for daily driving? mahal ba mag-tune ng carburetor? i need your help before it's gone. thanks!

sweet...kinda reminds me of the Datsun 510, which is definitely a classic. i would still prefer a BMW 2002 to it though, pero pwede na yan...para maiba

how much? kung makuha mo less than P100,000 buy it.

To fully restore it (including paint) probably less than P50,000 na lang kasi halos mint condition... I can't tell yung conditions ng windshield rubber and weatherstrip ng door windows...(my toyota KP61 project rubber and weatherstrip would cost me P18,000 na).

The carburator is the least of your problem...chances are you're going to upgrade that slowly (piece by piece)....and I wouldn't be surprise if you later upgrade the engine to a 4age or 4afe. If you do, keep the original engine and don't throw it away or sell it.

Goodluck.

Madami din namang repro parts sa US diba? Dun kasi ako umoorder kapag wala locally.

Sa mga wrecking yards, wala bang makukuhang parts car?

Kung hindi naman sobrang bugbog ang condition, ok na din. As long as you don't see it as an investment.
