I'd have probably restored it all one color, too
Eye of the beholder. I think that in a see of black or white/black interiors, the red looks awesome, even if it is 2-tone.

Yes it dose!!!
Good too see your still checking in around here Jeff.
I have to say the Red interior in 74 really pops, compared to the Burgundy in 73.
If the dash was the same red as the 74 Red I think I would go blind!

Man, I love that Red on Red 74 SD car Jeff, I call it my RED car.

shouldn't the kick panels be the darker red also on a '74 (with the red interior)?

Ah, don't get me wrong.... I really like the red interior, and would always take the unusual interior colors over the usual stuff (part of the reason I own the cars I do...). I was just thinking it would work a little better all one color.

The pictured cars looks good, though.

Kick panels should be the bright red, not the darker red. Only things that were darker red were the dash and console(s).

Keith, I agree w/ you to some extent about how it would look if it were all one color. No offense here whatsoever.
