Jeff,
Congrats on your find of such a great car.
The headlights in the grill are indeed a rare option, and something I would dearly like to find my my car.
I have a 71 142E M41(4 speed with OD) as a summer commute car/project car and love it. I keep her off the salty winter roads and covered.

The "E" models (mine)have the Bosch D-jet fuel injection system.

It seems that there are several carb options out there. Guys are always chatting about them on this forum.

For complete tach/dash information, thanks to Matt, take a look at:

I have the GT cluster, not the Ralleye. Instead, I mounted a 3-slot 52mm panel under the dash on the left side of the wheel. I put 83-93 series volvo VDO gauges and it looks ok.

Good luck,
Jeremy
