Yikes! That's a bit of a mess. Wonder what happened to the shoulder belts?

Probably in the low 30's as it's a '74. Bigger issue will be if the reserve will be met.

They probably ruined that steering wheel by putting that cover on it.

Ya 30s sounds fair for that one.

Was that steering wheel cover just a 70s trend like the taxi cab seat covers? Too bad...

It's possible that the foam has degraded on the steering wheel and that's why they've gone with a cover?

Not a bad looking example - another 400 4-speed without AC. No console is unusual (I prefer them with the console). Odd that the LH fender decal is absent and some of the photos show what looks to be foam and zip ties on the RH tailpipe - maybe to stop it rubbing on the trunk drop-off/quarter? Tail pipe angle needs some work.

A lot of the commenters like the 200S wheels - but I would be swapping them out for a set of Ralley's (right after I removed that steering wheel cover).
