First step.... Buy car
Second step.... Add money
Third step....Get loan
fourth step.... Add money
And it never really gets done.
Uncontrollable disease with little hope for cure.
Enjoy your sanity while it lasts.
Good luck !!

Default Pics

Not sure what happened to pic of my car, but I see pics of plates are able to be viewed. Can anyone help me to get closer to the exact part identification. I need to order, but what I want appears to be a 1975 part and not shown for 1974.

Default still searching for answers

Well I have ordered the recomended books and assembly manual should be here in a week. But I am still searching for the name of the part that I posted pics of earlier. Got two leads seat belt reinforcement plate (unfortunetly I cannot find that part listed for 1974) or #4 body mount reinforcement plate. One parts vendor told me to replace that I would have to do a total body removal to install, if thats true I did bite off more than I can chew. Please help
Thanks
Steve
