Found a set of Euro lights for the car, as well as the grill. For anyone considering replacing the lights, this is the way to go. Before installing I was using the high beams for normal driving with nobody aware. Now I’m getting flashed with just the low beams because the 90/130’s seem to be a bit bright to others!
The engine has not been opened for over 200,000 miles or so, with the first time being the original owner just to see what has worn. Still starts within 1 second of cranking, and burns very little oil. Not bad for a $5,000 buy!

Marc,
A little correction on your website description on the Milano, it is SOHC per/bank not DOHC.

That white 75 a few pages back is definitely the best there is. Hands down.
Here's my Twin Spark from when I first bought it.
I love this engine, the way it builds revs is just awesome.
No plans to modify this baby just yet, but i want some stiff suspension.
And this:

Which one? There was one with just a body kit (if you're into that kind of thing) and another clean stock Tspark. I like both!

I met this guy last week out of pure luck. I saw it parked on the side of the road, pulled in, and he happened to be finishing his game of golf and we chatted for a good half hour or so. Modified IMSA 1.8L Turbo front bar, custom front guards, custom bonnet and modified rear bar. 3.0L V6 stock at the moment, he said he had a 24v on the way. It was in brilliant condition. The guy had links to EMC Racing in the UK (former owner slash owner now workking down under or something along those lines). I hope he doesn't mind me posting up pictures, but it's so rare for me to see any other 75 around, let alone a very nicely modified one such as this!
Not too shabby pictures from my phone camera either I thought! 
ROCK ON

Platinum should be a good car.
