| Post subject: | help! 71 roundnose |
HI all! Going to the bigsmoke to look at what I am told is a 71 roundnose with 1100cc engine as the clubbie I was looking at seems to have fallen through. As a first time buyer can anyone tell me any pitfalls to look out for, and help identifying the car. I have a list of engine & rego numbers but it does not seem to give years. I found a post once in this forum from a pro advising what to look out for in terms of rust etc. but can't find it again |

I think there is a rust map type thing on JAMs site. Just go by general feelings and opinions. If the owner doesn't know much about it then a lot of work may be needed. Check for suspicious things like damaged/shifty looking plates, etc. Air cleaner is a good indication of how well that's looked after. |
