The best of both worlds: the clean lines of the early cars paired w/ the larger FI engine and 5 speed of the later.

Beautiful car, I had a '74 the same color that I built with a 1500, dual webbers, cam, 5-speed, ATS 5 spokes, etc. I even put in the 1500 interior as the original one had baked to dust. It looked almost identical to yours and still ranks as one of my favorite cars I've owned. The official color name was electric yellow! Again, great looking car!
