We know about the 2-door, just recently even. Apparently the grille and turn signal lenses are missing and the fenders are rusty. I'm not sure about the interior on that one.



The grille you can get NOS for $169.00.

Hey -zac!

Scatpack did the opposite, he swapped out a '74 grille for a '75 and things didn't seem to fit ...

My '75 already had the '74 grille swapped, courtesy of Huey...but, I believe the brackets and hole alignments are a little different between the years...

Yea I need to get with Beefmalone to swap the brackets so I can mount my 75 grille. Also gonna swap the front bumper.

I put a 74 grill in my 75 with no problems . The holes are there for the 74 mounting you just have to move the white push in threaded squares to the 74 location . To put a 75 grill in a 74 there are no holes for them but the 75 has both .
