    This car was actually a 73E, numbers matching

    Imported from Italy, butchered up pretty bad, but repairable. Has 85L plastic fuel cell. Owner thought engine was shot because it smoked. I drained 4 gallons of oil from it today. Proper oil level results in less smoke. New SSI's, tensioners, complete MFI... Rough but very restorable, found 80 miles from my house in Russelville, KY. Cheap too! Picked up this morning, now in my garage.

    still smokes a bit. I figure a good deal of the extra volume of oil is an oil/fuel mixture from a rich MFI setup. old oil smells of fuel. I figure the engine is toast.
