Steering column and wheel, too.Look on the Vin tag drivers side A pillar. My guess would be a 74. Shifting instructions looks like a 4 speed, which would be the 1st yr. 75 had amby doors and rollbar. @Living in the Past could disect it.

Heater changed in 9/73 with the 74 model. This one is a the later style with the vent on top. Tail light changed at the same time as well as the emblems on aprons and the bib. The handle for the interior door went metal to vinyl. Knobs on the dash changed 9/72. Heater switches were marked front and rear. 9/73 rear heater worked off hight speed of the front heater. Switch. Rear no longer had its own switch.
that makes since, i did re read a texted where he said he squared up the body to start on the floor. or something. its hard to tell what he meant because the text was one run on message. lol but now i think i got figured out. at first i thought he had square tubing in the back that was coming with the LC lolIt's to be expected from the pic of the rusted floors. It's got a head start towards the required bracing so the floors can be replaced.
Looks like an "F" engine to me. I thought the 2F moved the alternator to the pass side.... (along with aluminum valve cover, which was also on the 1.5 F, but I never saw a 2F with stamped steel).i found this 40 local to me here in iowa and i have no idea what year. judging by the pics its at least mid 70s from what i can tell. there are disc brakes in a package in cab, dash pad, looks like 2 f engine.
I was going to say 74 or later. There is no picture of the back.. for the tell-tale ski google backlight. One question, there is no roll bar in the pictures. I know that '73 doesn't have roll bar. Any history on when the roll bar and 3 point seat belts were added to the US vehicles?Heater changed in 9/73 with the 74 model. This one is a the later style with the vent on top.
