I'm digging the looks of the 74 the more I look at it. More pics to come when I have some time to get a good look at it.

The fact its a factory 4 speed makes it cool . Matt checking out his prize @ The Grove

Always liked the one-year-only styling of the '74's.
Those hood graphics were cool! Nice running gear combo too.

A restored one just sold on eBay recently for around 15K. Almost bought it. These may be the next cars to start taking off price wise.

Had a friend in high school with a similar car except no stripes and it was an auto. Id love to have a 74 Z to go with dads 77 Z. I've always been a fan of the big bumper Z's since you rarely see them.

Congrats Matt; cool find.
Not to get away from the subject, but I can tell you a VERY unique '74 owned by one of our Yenko.net members will be unveiled Saturday morning, November 23 at the MCACN show in the Nickey display! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif

Matt,
Does that car have a saginaw trans?? Just curious because 5 mins after I got my 74 Z home, I did a holeshot and blew the trans . When I pulled the trans. I was surprised it was not a muncie or T-10??
I always wondered if that trans was original or if they came with a muncie or T-10 by 74?? Wasn't 74 the year GM went to the alum super T-10??
good luck with it !!!

cool... thankss... I figured they should have the hipo trans... i guess mine had been changed.. I didnt know better back then.. but was really bummed when I saw it wasn't a muncie... I bought the car to part out and never checked before i bought it. It was a good running car..just had lots of rot.
I always liked the 'black sheep' after I had that car..
So is your this next project??

So I dug into this car this morning. Original motor, transmission, rear end, carb, distributor, pulleys etc. Wrong alternator and starter.

I already have 4 irons in the fire that I don't think will ever get finished. I don't need anymore projects for the time being. I will try to get this one running though.

What's the deal with the blue 67?

LOS built 67 Camaro. Original MB coded 327 with original smog parts still attached, has Muncie 4 speed, 10 bolt rear. Blue/blue standard. Pretty rough but all there.

Sounds cool. Someone will restore that one if it's complete. Strange that it would have the Muncie and the 10-bolt.

The Muncie in the67 isn't original. I am betting that it was a Saginaw equipped car originally.
