Rescued a 78 W72
I picked up this 78 W72 Auto, black on black deluxe, PW, AC. It was sitting in a tow yard on the south shore, buried in snow with four flats. It put up a good fight, but the winch pulled it out.
It's got some rust, but it's solid in all the important areas. I don't know exactly what I'm doing with it yet. It's got a 74 TA 400 in it, with the 78 6x heads and intake, Edelbrock carb, and oddly enough an open face alternator which I need for my 70 TA. Here it is in all its glory:

Nice catch!!!
Looks like something you'd like to work on (me too). T-tops long gone??? Wheels don't look too teribly rusty??? front spoiler looks intact? only one wheel flare gone? I lost my front spoiler less that a year after buying... more pictures, etc. I like it!!!

I have the tops. They were loose, so I threw them in the truck for the ride home. The other spoiler is in the car, although someone put 79-81 front spoilers on it for some reason.
She's rough. Still trying to figure out what I want to do with it.
