Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

Heater channels looking for clean and unpatched, floor under rear seat around battery. Check to see under the front rear of arches for patches that have welded the floor to the body.

What transaxle is in there, still the original 1200 or 1300? How old is the engine and who made/assembled it. Being fitted with the big carbs any oil filter mods from the standard mesh.
When were valve clearances last done?
Tug on the crankshaft pulley, any more movement that a .25mm walk away as crank end float.

What is the dizzy, an 009 or 034 (34 better) distributor, or the petronix complete dizzy. Why go cheap? And not go to the 123 programable ignition?

Have they got the Dyno charts and what does the fuelling look like.

Are the wings and running board Brazilian made? As the front wings are early while the car is a later 71. The head lamps are shit.

That is off the top of my head

DM me a number and can talk more.

EDIT: won't be MOT exempt for long due to the modded engine and front suspension.

Forgot to ask about the heat exchangers, when changed and what type/brand fitted?
