Its been a year...progress pics.
Well it's been a year since I got my 74, thought I would share my progress pics. The vast majority of the work has been on the interior. I have lots of pics, but I just though I would share the milestones. Enjoy! 
Oh and sorry for the poor pic quality, lots were done with cell phone.
My barn find...literally!
How the interior looked the day I took her home. The seats were torn up, the carpet nasty, and there were ants all over the place! Had to use several bug bombs to get rid of them all!
The tear down...
The final product.
Exterior work begins with new wheels...
Future Plans
New Paint
New Bumpers (going back to original 74 rear)
Engine mods

Outstanding work!!! Good eye for detail.
This thread is going into my archives for future reference.
I like your gauges. If I was working on my interior that would mean I would be allmost finished with the car. Give it another year.
Congratulation. GG

Yeah, that took some work, lined the ash tray with speaker box carpet and stuffed the Ipod in there.
Probably take out...or eachother...IDK?? They were everywhere! Mostly underneith the car, but probably got in throught gaps in the weather stripping, etc. It took me tearing out the carpet to fully get rid of them.
