Yeah I have a 1974 convertible that I am restoring. Here is a picture of one that looks like mine did before I started the restoration.
You live in Maryville? That's southwest of Knoxville a little isn't it? I have a friend who retired and moved to a little town called Greenback and we went to see him and we ate in Maryville.

vettevet, yes I am south east of Knoxville. Greenback is a nice country setting just south of me. That vet is going to look nice. I wish I had a 72. Maybe if I can finish this truck I can sell it and buy one one day.
