'74 SD Trans Am - Courtesy Pontiac

Thanks Steve. The only cracks that I can see are in the front lower filler panel. Doesn't look like it was hit - just cracking in a few places. Fuel gauge works - must be picking up a ground from somewhere. I have the car in Florida right now - love to have you evaluate it when it gets back up north. I hear that you know a little about these SD cars! SD Engine has been rebuilt bone stock. All major components are correct. I've got the correct alternator being restored. I sent the carb out to Eric last week.

I'd love to check it out. When is it coming up north?

I may have something you can use for a do-it-yourself battery project: It's an original display (empty) Delco Freedom battery case. Perfect candidate to open the bottom and have a small AGM battery put inside it. These were used from 74 to 77 IIRC.

I originaly got it for Enrico's 73 but it turned out to be a year too new for it.

Nice SD Bruce, congratulations! Amazing performers for 1974, I had a twin to it years ago but it wasn't near that nice.

Steve, I'm not sure about the production dates for the original Delco Freedom batteries but from from what I can tell the Delco Freedom II batteries were only used from late 1980 through 1982 production so it wouldn't be correct for Bruce's SD. I'd love to have one for my Mom's 81 Z28 though so if you want to get rid of it let me know or send me a PM.
