1975 factory Auto ??

[jtoomasson at yahoo.com (Jeff Toomasson)]

Don't even think of stripping it!!   Since you've got the 77 there, you
could use body items from that car...

You just don't see many 75's around. Whether you want to keep it an
automatic is your choice, but I've never known them to be anywhere near
reliable...
