it could be gas or diesel, and it could be a 230 four cylinder or a 250 six, i think as well as a 280. i believe that that five speed will bolt up to any of the period engines gas or diesel. it is a robust fiver and very rare. the tranny alone is worth the purchase price of the car probably if not too high.
