Been going on and on about what the heck I should do with my 75's
Got the 2.0 ltr carb one which is in need of extensive repairs, and a TS which I originally bought for parts, but was in two minds about how I should get on about and which of the 2 I would end up repairing....
So here is my current daily driver - the 2 ltr carby 75 (used to be a 1.8)
To cut a long story short on how I got this car,
I found it at a junk yard, ready to be pressed.
It had all documents valid, but the guy who owned it took it for repairs at one garage, they took it apart, then he found the pricing high and he took the car and parts at another garage to get another estimate.
Time had passed, the old man couldnt afford the repair, the new garage had no idea how to put it back together, parts were lost, so it ended up in the junk yard, AND I BOUGHT IT
Changed the middle gearbox mount - well it was missing anyway - Master clutch cylinder, rebuild the carbs, fixed the propshaft and have been driving it since - about a year now
