I think there is a good buying guide on corvettefaq.com... One tell tail sign of rust is the radiator support. If I could do it all over again I would look at 3 before I even planned on buying 1 then you'll get the idea of whats what... and hopefully what its worth. I would say to def go with the 74 compared to the later.
