Some of the mods made by the previous owner(s), some by me
- Britax Sunroof – this was likely done by the supplying dealer as it was never an option from the factory.
- Engine is bored over 0.60″ so it’s now an 1860cc engine instead of the standard 1798
- Stainless steel exhaust
- Electronic ignition instead of points
- Tubular shock conversion (front and rear)
- 15″ alloys instead of 14″ wheels that were standard
- Panhard Rod to keep the rear wheels in check and stop the fatter tyres rubbing against the wheel arch
- Set of driving lights wired into the main beam
- Hazard light kit has been fitted as none as standard on the 1972 model
- Halogen headlight upgrade to replace the old sealed beam units, with relays to protect the switches
- Rolled the inner lip of the nearside rear wheel arch as I was still getting some rubbing of the tyre against the body work under “enthusiastic” cornering
- Poly bushes all round (some bushes had already been done when I bought the car)
- Parabolic Rear Springs replaced the old traditional leaf springs
