Welcome!! Would love to hear more about your Turbo II. Do you know any of the car's history and do you have any more pics of the car?

A pretty rare car to find no doubt. A 5spd swap would be the way to go. Will look forward to the pics!

Before you drive it much I would re fit or get a fan shroud fitted around the fan/radiator or engine will over heat

Welcome to the forum. I agree with WJM ROTARIES... Without the shroud in place, the fan can't properly draw air through the radiator. Nice Turbo II! Enjoy it.

I thought it was an exhausting fan? Instead of pulling in?

You car appears to be super clean!! Very nice!! How did you acquire the car?

The idea behind the fan and shroud is to draw air through the radiator to cool the coolant in the radiator. Without a shroud, the air is not being drawn in efficiently and overheating can result at idle. Its very important to have the fan and shroud in place.
