Either way, LeMons needs more 'Merican muscle that's as fast as those Euroboxes and those Japanese motorbikes.

You're missing the point. It doesn't matter what year it is. That's the great thing about Amazons, they aren't meant to be preserved, restored, pampered, etc. They're meant to be driven. You fix them when they break, you spiff them when you want it to look better. Beyond that, you simply enjoy. Dad's owned our's for 26 years. It recently got lowered, and had sway bars added. Man is it fun to drive. Don't worry. Enjoy.
If it helps, though, mine's a '67 and did not originally have headrests, so it may be a US/Non US spec thing.

The Chicken Tax did a good job of keeping them from getting a start in the market on this coast. As I recall, it was not until they started "making" them in the U.S. that you saw many of them on the road.
