Rick,
I have been using my 74 GT as a daily driver since May. Once I fixed
some carb related problems it has been running quite nicely. I have had
no problem starting it, (12 degrees this morning). A 190 degree
thermostat is a good idea if you live somewhere cold. Also I think I am
going to have to change the oil to 10W40 as it takes a while for the oil
pressure to rise in the morning.
Good luck,
Simon
