I have a pretty original ’72 1.7. I’ve been toying with the idea of putting in a -6. The car runs great, it’s just sloooooow! I was curious about opinions on resale value. Say 5 years from now, if I decided to sell, would an all original 1.7 be worth more than a conversion? Or at least close enough to not justify the money for the conversion? How about 10 years? I would think as any car gets older, originality would demand a premium. Thoughts?
