Head studs are the big weak point on this car, but your PPI should catch that.

Another thing is, Targa tops can be really bad leakers. Mine was really bad and the seals and rebuilding the top is really expensive. Even after all that it would still leak a little until I got a saratoga top for it.

Other than that, they are great cars. Replace the stock exhaust with some pre 74 heat exchanges and a free flowing muffler and the car will really come alive. The CIS fuel injection does not have the best throttle response, but replacing the exhaust system really helped mine.

Super fun cars, I sometimes regret selling mine.
