Sounds like you already made your mind up, so go for it.
I have a 78T that I drive every time it isn't being cantankerous or it is raining. Which in the PNW this summer has been very rarely. But I love the frickin thing.
If you want a 78T as a daily driver at least have a reliable backup available if it decides not to cooperate one important morning. I'm not knocking the reliability of its sketchy 30 year old electric system and waterpump, as a longtime saaber I have come to live with that. Just be smart about it and don't expect impeccable reliability and you will enjoy it!
