I judge them every year at the Palos Verdes and the Los Angeles (actually Rose Bowl in Pasadena) Concours. You can get just about every single part from Moss Motors in Goleta, CA. I mean you can get the short machine screw for the left rear tail light! It's amazing the parts support. A big deal is to change the two blade radiator fan for one that actually works. It's a 1 point deduction under the hood, cause they needed a better fan. Many guys go with the twin electric fans, it's still a 1 point deduction. Never owned one, but agree on the six cylinder versions. The inboard rear disk brakes (near the differential, not the wheel) are kind of strange, but I guess they work. Watch what is under the hood when you open it. The whole front of the car tips up, bumpers, headlights, grille, everything. Easy to chip if you're not careful.

Edit: I see you're in El Aye, the lucas electricals are not a problem in semi-dry climates. I believe they have SU fuel pumps. If you buy one, PM me and I'll shoot you a scan of the SU repair manual. You'll NEVER figure out the rebuild adjustment procedures on those suckers without the manual. I mean never!
