Brief History:
Designed as a replacement for the 2 door, 4 seater Mexico the Indy was first released with a 4.2 litre V8.  Underpowered relative to its weight the 4.7 litre V8 was offered in 1970 and then finally the 4.9 litre V8 in 1973.  The dry sump of the Ghibli was however not present on this car
