A word of warning to all 75 owners-Check the straps that hold up the fuel tank.I was just having a bit of a look at the underside of the car today and discovered that the metal straps for supporting the fuel tank had corroded to the extent that they had rotted through on both sides allowing the tank to hang down about 30 mm.I got 2 light metal strips off a local engineering works and made 2 new ones as I did'nt fancy the tank dropping completely
