if it is the original engine and has not been swapped out or enlarged during a rebuild, it is a 1,7 -- them's the choices for 1972.
lots of engines have been enlarged at least a little during rebuild, and lots of early cars have had later (larger) engines swapped in (they're all pretty much interchangeable). a check of the engine code (serial number prefix) will tell you what it was before a rebuild. i owned a '72 1,7 for a while and liked it a lot; they can be lots of fun. oh -- and -- WELCOME !!! |
