1. The seats started wearing out at 180,000 2.Carburetor need rebuilt at 175,000 3.Starter wore out at 167,000 and 260,000 4.Ignition module failed at 188,000 5.Had to change radiator at 280,000 6.Exhaust pipes rusted through in 1988 and I had to change them again in 1996. 7.I change all the wheel bearings at 290,000. 8.Rebuilt tansmission at 290,000 9.Air conditioning condenser ha to be replaced at 312,000 10.I had to change plugs, wires, distributer cap, brakes, hoses and belts from time to time over the years.

The car rides and handles very well and it does reasonably well on its gas mileage-13 in town 18 on the highway. This car is well built I was hit by a 1992 Japanese car in the rear end end and I had no damage at all. There car was smashed in and had major damage. I like the style of the car with its flair fenders and doors, it has some of the body lines from cars of the 1950"s.The car has quite a bit of power as with most mid 1970"s model its actual power was under rated. Driving the car makes me see how poorly built the new cars are today, they really lack all most everything that makes a car a pleasant experience to drive.
