Pic is too big probably why it won't upload to PY.
It being on photobucket, it should be hosted there, looks like trying to upload here.

Anyway, here's a reduced pic, car looks good.

Is it an SD?

I have what may be a nearly identical car. Mine is a white 74 SD455 4-spd with standard black interior. It came with honeycombs as well.

This has the "white trash" 455 in it...VERY nice car....and it's about TIME that a non-Sd 74 got some RESPECT!

Can you post the rest of the pages? I renewed my subscription last week but it seems they skipped a month. Dagnabbit!

I've seen a number of people put the Trans Am decal on the header panel of 74 - 76 T/As, usually white ones. I don't subscribe to Hemmings. Is the shaker decal a SD455 or something else?

It has a '75 455-HO decal on the scoop, which he states was put on by a previous owner. (HFR tree'd me on that one!)

Very nice looking car. For some reason the red, white, and blue look really good together!

It has a few minor mods (aftermarket a/c compressor, & added options) but overall, a super nice 74 D-port. The RF fender to door needs some realignment.

Very nice car (but I may be a bit biased). It was wonderful to see it in HMM. Seems like this "era" of the Trans Am often goes overlooked.

Why can't they just send ONE renewal notice...and say...this is IT...

I like the red interiors in the 74, wish mine had it.

I have a 74 T/A 455 D-port that's red on red. The body is excellent, but the plastic panels in the back have turned to dust.

I think my subscription also lapsed, so I bought the last issue on the news stand when I saw this article in the magazine. I had a '74 "Just like it" (how many times have you heard that?)

Differences were mine had the SD and no hood bird and Rally IIs. I haven't seen any other white 74 TA's with the red interior until this one. All the 455's non SD's had turbo 400 trannys. Really nice car.
