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) ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Been a while so here is an update. Brad brought Lil red back to me when he came for our recent 914 BBQ, Thanks Brad (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
I put it back on the lift today and continued with disassembling the car. Got the fogs & horns off when I noticed a lose paint where the bumper bones was. Yep..... rust hole Argh! Wish I would have seen this BEFORE i took it down to Brad. O'well one more thing on list to fix. The bumper mount is fine, but the hole(s) go into the headlight bucket and to the left of the mount. What do you think, just cut out the bad metal and patch or does the mount need to come out? Attached image(s) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
