Hey guys I am currently working on a 74 super for amfriend of mine. It has seen the road since 92 and is not in too bad of shape. It has the stock motor, trans, and A/C. The interior is pretty dry rotted and it actually has wood grain trim. Also, on the back half of the roof there is some vinyl with chrome trim.
Plans:
Rebuild front and rear suspension
F and R brakes
Soft lines
Shocks
Drain the old gas and clean the fuel system
Change the gear oil
Tune up
And we'll seemwhere he wants to go from there. I'll get some pics soon.
