Wanted one for years and tonight she arrived .... white 75 1.8 . Original paint and accident free . Not a touch of rust anywhere ..no history , gearbox in front and engine on a pallet ... First registered in 76 and last on road in 1988 ....engine is void of its injection system and looking I think it was taken off the road due to a leaky gearbox seal contaminating clutch ....I think the new gearbox seal kit , new flywheel and oily clutch give it away .....so it’s either source FI , carbs or put the SC engine in .....oh and it was cheap ....suspected 12k miles but no way to prove ... no ware on pedal rubbers etc
It’s a terrible idea... Going to be watching avidly!! Going to have to swap notes on conversion to UK and.. and we’ll everything really! Looks a great example.
