Default 74 t/a project

Picked this up yesterday after around a year of talking with the owner. It's been off the road and sitting since 1980 due to a blown engine, restoration was started a little over 10 years ago. The original engine and transmission have been rebuilt, block had 8 sleeves as it was rough. It has been rebodied around the original firewall due to rust, but with parts from a 74 of the same week of manufacturer and nos body panels. All 4 quarters (1 still to be installed), cowl, door skins (not installed) and inner fenders are new nos metal. I'll document the rest of the restoration here. Judging by the pace of my '67 firebird resto which is just finishing up, it'll be 2-3 years to where it's running and driving again , I'll let the pictures do the talking but I'm super excited to have one of the ultimate trans ams - build sheet says 8 track, which it still has! I'll post more pics as I go through everything and start work on it.
