Can you show us the motor? I noticed a few things that are off for a 74 1.8



@Van B has got pilots eyes! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

he spotted the rear badge, the metal charcoal can on fuel tank and the silver dot dials. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

yeah thats a 73 you got there @thecleanoutking . a 1.7 d-jet engine.
going off the engine and the clues above anyway.

maybe has had a set of new bumpers off a 74 fitted with the tits at both ends.

vin number would tell you. first three numbers. 473 = 73. 474 = 74.

looks like its loaded up though. console etc. probably off a 2.0
if there is little rust in it you have done well.

EDIT
it might be a real early 73 since its only got 914 on rear badge.
the first few cars of 73 were like that. no 1.7 badge fitted. if it is the last 5 numbers on the Vin will be real low.

@thecleanoutking

except i just looked at more of the photos. can only read the windscreen tag.
vin is 474. so= 74. last 5 numbers are 07968 = vin range for the very first of the 74 L jet 1.8s. early to mid nov 73.


but its got a 73 engine and some other 73 features.

This is one I found a while back and added to the vin database. Definitely a 74 vin, but not 74 equipment. Looks like a lot of goodie’s were added to the interior and the tach and temp gauge were replaced. Speedo looks correct though.

Pics suggest a solid car, but I'd still pull the rockers to see how the longs look if you haven't done so already.
