Picked this little bugger up Sunday. Got it running today.

'74 Tii. Abandoned project. Rust where rust shouldn't be.. like, seriously.

But hey, I got it running..! It hasn't been tagged since 2002!

It had Marchal SEV Ampilux lights too, but one is gone (replaced with a Hella H4) and the other is badly deteriorated on the inside. Dang it!

Interestingly, the rockers are stamped with hash marks for 1 thru 8..

I love that alarm trip switch for the hood. Very old school.

Are you going to part it out? Too rusty to save? I might need the air cleaner brackets if you are willing to part.

Really too sad to see it parted out !!

I feel sad doing it. Seriously! But unless someone else wants to fund it, It will just sit for another 10 years until it is rusted in half. And/or unless someone wants to buy it for the sum of its parts...and spend a small fortune restoring it.

So, I need a sponsor. Max, send over some fenders, quarters, floors, nose, seat perches, rear seat wall, frame rails, trunk floor and repair panels for the rear corners where the rear subframe bolts in..that's enough to keep me busy for a while! I'll contact you later for phase two!!!

Interestingly, the shock towers and doors are solid!
