Cost of a 1973 Datsun 1200?

Question

My elderly neighbour has a 1973 white datsun that she hasn't been able to drive for many years, it's been under cover, the tyre's have gone flat and there are a few small rust spots but the inside looks good. she doesn't think its worth much but i think it could have some vaule and i don't want to see her under sell it because she really doe's need the money.

Answer 1

$75.00 - $150.00

Answer 2

sorry but couple hundred bucks maybe

Answer 3

I think your neighbor's car is worth more than the first two answerers think. That car is very popular in some circles, and depending on the mileage and overall condition it could be worth at least $1,000 USD and if it's really special maybe as much as $3,000, especially if she's the original owner.  

Here's a site that you can check out:

Maybe get on that site (and look for others), post some pictures and a desciption of the car, and get a feel for what it's worth.  I have a feeling that it might actually generate some excitement;  enthusiasts of a particular car love finding cars like this that belonged to the proverbial "little old lady" and have been sitting under wraps for years.

Good luck!
