Working on mine is like building a ship in a bottle.Radiator comes out from the bottom,after all the sheet metal. The trans tunnel was solid and transmission goes back just far enough so tip of input shaft is in scatersheild.The clutch and throw out forks have to be removed to get scatter sheild and trans in or out. Hood scoop isn't very functional and cant get descent air cleaners on tunnel wedge w/2-4s. In the NorthWest a defroster would have been a plus.A convertable top and sidecurtains will add lots of days to the driving schedule. 11.5 comp ratio is a challenge for pump gas, 10-1 would been a better choice.Trunk needs a drain The new seat belts will be the quick or cam latch type,because of the frequency that they will used in street driving (Click- it or ticket )=$100 plus.Fuel injection would be my choice if I didn't already have any induction. I'd go for function over accuratecy, it's a replica that some will poo-poo.Wiring with the glass fuses and weather not a dependable combo.Money and sweat willl change most everything.
