Welcome to the list and to type 3 land, Ben.

Your 71 sounds pretty rusty. Take a good look inside the wheel 
wells, at the rear of the front fenders and at the front of the rear 
fenders. They often rust thru into the passenger compartment 
there. The price is cheap, but this may still be more work than it's 
worth. Dual carb engines were made every year, just not exported 
everywhere. Repair panels are a problem.
