As MidShark said, the '74 has a split rear bumper, the '75 is one piece. The '75 also had simulated pads on the front & rear bumpers, and the speedometer showed KmPH. If you look under the cars you'll see that the '74 has a true dual exhaust and no cats. The '75 has both exhausts routed to a single converter then back out as duals.

74 is the last year for true dual exhaust, 74 was last year for no cat converter, 74 used regular gas, ... also, I think the seat belts went through the back of the seat on a 74, 75 the shoulder strap was routed differently.
Correct about the split rear bumper on the 74
74 does not have an emblem on the gas tank lid
74 Does not have the bumper impact stubs
74 last year for Big block
Yes, I know this is the c4 section... but the op did ask.... hope this helps !
