Pluses...it is an original long hood, so there is value there, even with a non matching motor. "72 was the only year for the forward oil tank with filler door.

Minuses...the "modernization" components do more to hurt value than a little rust and the 2.0 ltr motor. Loose the wing, sell the seats and find an early set, even if rough. The two tone just doesn't do it!

Many are looking for long hoods and even a Targa can be desirable, though not as much as a coupe. The fact that this is a '72 only sweetens the mix.
