hello all.first off let me say that ive been using this site for more than a year.a wealth of info and amusement.i bought this 73 1.7 about a year ago when i posted on cl for a winter project.trailered it home to olympia from the seattle area.the prior owner parked it in his shop many years ago because of a fuel leak.to shorten this story up i changed a couple hoses at the pump,resealed the injectors,battery,oil and fired it up.ive had a few of these years ago and forgot how fun these are to drive.hopefully i can keep from wanting another as i see its quite a common malady to have more than one.we will see.

Great looking car. Does it have stainless steel fuel lines down the center tunnel? Or the original plastic ones?

Terrific car. And if you do have plastic fuel lines in the tunnel, call Chris at Tangerine Racing and order a set of his SS fuel lines http://www.tangerineracing.com/stainlessfuellines.htm The last thing anyone wants is to see that beauty go up in flames due to brittle old plastic lines.

Looks great! Classic German racing silver. Door gaps look really good. '73 1.7 with the appearance group. Does it have front and back sway bars?
