    Default 75 v8

    Hi all,

    I'm going to look at a 75 V8 tomorrow and am trying to find a buyers guide. I understand the rear subframe can be an issue but is there anything else besides normal car checks I should be looking for?

    Thanks in advance!

    I did try and look at that but unfortunately it won't allow me as I don't have permission?

    Thanks

    Subframes I think are only an issue with the very early cars, 75's are later and should be ok
