So I bought this Red 74 with a friend to be a car we part out. Well after taking a good look at it I can't bring myself to part it. Yes it has rust issues, but overall the bones are very good.
As you can see jack post are gone and the passenger side door jam has good size hole behind the latch plate, but only in that area. I haven't dug into the hell hole yet, but the battery tray and support is pretty solid. So the plan is a stock look restoration with very few "upgrades". Only changes from stock would be a more modern radio and GASP........ AC (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) So here are the pictures................. Attached image(s) ![]() ![]() ![]() |

QUOTE It's always amazing seeing the difference in perspective. I have a red car much like yours. Mine has less rust than yours. I am cutting mine up for scrap due to the rust. I'm in California, 914 heaven. There are just to many cars out here to justify saving a car like mine or yours. Someone coined the term... "East coast gem, West coast junk". I guess it would be junk out West. If the floors were gone or trunks I would agree with you 100%. It may very well be junk as I haven't really dug into the hell hole yet I will know more this weekend. QUOTE For now, I would dump the lift and trade it for a rotesserie Nope, I still have this one in the other stall (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached image(s) ![]() |
