76 carpet
I'm looking at buying new carpet and from what I can tell the 76 has different carpet. Is this true? If do what's different? Thanks

Yes it does not have a different carpet for pattern. The 1976 and 1977 do not follow the OEM carpets of other years. Could be the colors and not design of the floor pan for these years because the underlayment of insulation is the same from 1968 until 1977.

Steel floor pans. All previous years had fiberglass floors.

Yes, the 1976 carpet set is all by itself in the year it fits. Some years do have cross over years but 76, and 77 went solo.
76 carpet sets can be found at this link in the forum member special section.
