Faults:

The valve seals and piston rings are gone so it goes through a bottle of oil a month.

Transmission needs the belts adjusted.

Brakes need work.

Replaced plugs only recently and had to advance the timing.

Speedo doesn't work properly and shows you doing 3 times more than you really are.

General Comments:

A great little car that I picked up for $400 and that included a great set of ROH mag wheels.

It is a really comfortable car with a nice driving position although the rear has almost no legroom.

The 1600 motor in it is drinking oil like there is no tomorow and I want to replace it with a 2.0 Litre Mitsubishi Sigma Engine with twin Mikuni-Solex carbies and extractors.

The transmission jerks a bit when it shifts from first to second so I believe the belts need adjusting.

It is very hard to drive in car parks although once the car is going faster it seems to lighten up.

I love the 70's look of the car and the fact it has a GT body that when combined with the ROH mags makes it look quite tough.

I would love to put an EVO or Galant VR4 4G63 2.0 Turbo in it (this would take work as the engine in the Galant is a north-south layout) but I would also like a 2.6 Astron Turbo or a fuel injected version of the Sigma engine using Magna parts.

Summing up. The car looks great as it has good paint and no rust, drives alright and is really comfortable.
