LOL! Yeah, but it would be the nicest '75 Firebird anyone ever saw!

Loaded up all the engine parts in the truck. Ready to get dropped off tomorrow. Here's a couple shots of the interior. The only things that I replaced over the years were the sagging headliner and the carpet. Everything else is as it was in 75. Including the vintage (and muddy) J.C. Whitney floormats.

Thanks to one of the guys (Jim, a.k.a. x-bird2) over at Performanceyears.com, I have a replacement set of exhaust manifolds in my hands now. He's a local Pennsylvania boy (with a 73 SD455 Formula) and he just gave them to me. He said the reason he hadn't thrown them in the scrap pile before, was that they were down in the basement and it was too much effort to drag them up to throw away. (They still had the head pipes attached).

Steve, are those idiots lights on the left side of dash cluster?
What is under the ashtray ?


I am REALLY impressed with the Tom Jones pic. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]

Yup, those are the factory idiot lights in the large circular gauge on the left. You had to pay extra for the gauge package back then. I installed an autometer mini gauge cluster in the map pocket of the console back in the 90's just to keep an eye on things.
