1974 tub on my 1978 frame and mechanical.

[DKM]

I have been working on a 74 tub to put on my 1978 frame (VIN November 1977). Anyone know if there are any major fabrications or changes I'll have to make on the 74 tub to accomodate the brake/booster, clutch master, blower box, etc.? Anything else I should keep an eye out for? Body progress has been slow, been working on other stuff. A few pics. Let me know what to look out for. Thanks fellas.

It should work. Probably nothing major. Use the frame # as the id.

9/72-1/79 the tub mounted the same. Steering box/column were the same as well. Mounting the tub and steering are the biggest concerns.

I’ve got a 76 body I put on my 74 frame. Door latches and rear doors are different. I’ve also got a slight gap where the b-pillar and hard top meet. Nothing too bad.
