After many months of searching (and buying parts) I now have a car for my project. I purchased this 75 on Saturday, it had been in storage since 1984, it was taken apart for painting and never completed. Some surface rust in a few places but it looks really clean and it's only 80 miles from my shop. I'm picking up a 2.7 tomorrow and also bought a 901 with a LSD that has low miles on it.

Congrats!

Cool car, cool color, and those Yokos are old-skool. Wonder if they're as hard as the wheels they're mounted on. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

Welcome aboard. We have selected the same combo, 1975 with 2.7, but is currently on the back burner due to a rust free project is in the que. I will be watching close, is the 2.7 running? carbs?

Thanks to all for your notes. The 2.7 will be fuel injected. At this point it’s all in boxes. “Some assembly required”. LOL

It will get repainted but I’m not sure on the color. I’ve said Alaska blue metallic for almost a year but then I picked up a couple of items painted azure blue. This one will have steel flares as well and chrome bumpers. Also a special thanks to the forum member who said buy the P280B ball joint socket. It was definitely worth the money.
