She runs and drives good. Floor pans are solid and the brakes are great.

Way to go! Looks like a good find. I'll bet it will clean up real nice with a good buffing out. Looks a lot like my 72 super.

Looks a lot like my 74 when I got it. . . . But that was 14 years ago.
Enjoy the fun

I cleaned her up a bit and changed the wheels and tires.
