I love the neck tie on the assembly line. Any idea what colors the official round port neck tie should be?

:-)

We are rebuilding it from a stash of Bill's NOS parts bin for this car. Seats will be recovered in NOS comfort weave....

What's not NOS is original to car restored from documented photos.

Most of which Bill has done.

I'm working on upper A Arms, KR wheels and the original shaker with Craig.






Will be a M-22 with AC deluxe interior for the fun to drive factor..
I hope it doesn't have drip moldings: confused:

Are you converting the car to a 4spd or is that not the original block Mike?

Let me clarify.......the second engine in line in the second picture is a D port engine, not an SD. Not the engine that the finely dressed engineer is working on but the one behind him. Non SD code and a non SD carburetor.

My eyes work pretty good thank you!

John,
I think this was a photo op shot for the new SD engine ('73, before they were pulled for the emission problem). Which would make the next engine a '73 also.

The first engine is a Y8 automatic sd and the second is unknown to me. ZN was not used to my knowledge in 73, 74.

Johnta1, in 724 the 400 line went like this:
YF,YH, AD, AH 2 Barrel 175/190 Auto
ZJ(air), ZK 2 Barrel 175/190 Dual Exhaust
Y3, WT, WR 4-Barrel 225 Manual
YL, YM, YT, YZ 4-Barrel 200 Auto
A3, AT, ZS, ZT 4-Barrel 250 Auto
Y9, A4, Z4, YY 4-Barrel 250 Auto
AU, ZU, YW, ZW 4-Barrel 250 Auto

I have no record of the ZN in my info?
