Just picked up my first 2nd gen and looking to learn all about them.

 

Nice looking car, Welcome

I lived in Sumter for 5 years and I had a black 74. Its fine as a 16 year old but I think you will want the AC hooked up

 

thank you.


And absolutely true. I am gathering everything now to put it back on. Way to hot lol.

 

Welcome to the CLub.
Indeed a nice ride.
Might I suggest getting a Haynes manual in helping you keep her running.
Never know when reference material comes in handy.

 

good idea and thx!

 

Looks like an amazing find, congratulations on your purchase and welcome aboard! What upgrades exactly are you planning to do?

 

The number one thing right now is inspecting all the driveline, wiring, suspension, and braking systems. I have spent a good amount of time just checking things over and replacing normal service items. The car isn't in bad shape at all but I just want it to be safe and the time I spend now will pay off a lot later.

 

Nice car i almost got into a 74 with a 383 in it, love the 2 gen cars too
