Re: 73-74 show off
I was going to say the front hood release, until you said cab
Is it the vin plate on the door instead of the dash? Posted via Mobile Device

Re: 73-74 show off
Here's my 74. Just had my new 4 row radiator put in last week, along with the radiator bracket that I cleaned up and painted that I got at the pick a part. Also that VERY clean and chip and mark free shroud was also found at the pick a part. Just needed a good cleaning and degreasing. The grille also scored at the pick a part thats in perfect shape, no marks at all, just needed cleaning as well and I painted it silver and the 350 emblem cleaned and painted. The bowtie I just scored last week, a NOS one i will bolt on both of them very soon.

Re: 73-74 show off
Those are in there. They are usually covered with caps. The wiper switch location is different.

Re: 73-74 show off
Nope, my 73 has the provision to install shoulder belts...it is just plugged and the pillar trim does not have a hole from the factory.
Keep trying... ![]()

Re: 73-74 show off
OK, here it goes...
73/74 trucks have smooth sheetmetal directly below the rear window...later models have recessed "ribs"...that look like crap IMO. ![]()
