If the car you are looking at feels to have a heavy clutch , then go and look at another one for comparison . If you know someone with a 75 , then ask them for a go to test the clutch feel . Good luck in your hunt

Thank you all for your advise. I did not buy it as it had lots of rust. Plus could not test drive it.
