Default clutch

:lol: just got my first 75 today and noticed that the clutch is biteing nerlly at the top of its travel but still got a lot of bite and no sign of slipping just woundering if the pedal has a self adjuster at the topof the pedal

Default Clutch

No adjustment at all, can only bleed but I wouldn't think this is your problem. (I believe master cylinder is at top of pedal inside car and it is very fiddly to fill with fluid)
The other parts of the clutch, slave and clutch plate & pressure plate are inside the bell housing and require removal of the gear box to replace. About a 5 hour job.
Hope yours is ok

A 75 2.5 V6 I bought a year ago with only 6K miles seemed like that but I just got used to it.

It has worked perfectly OK during the 10K miles since.
