I've owned my 74 since around 1984. I've always loved working on it, to the extreme.
I was continually fixing it up, driving it daily, patching it up after wrecks ... until it got parked in my new Monster Garage 10 years ago.
It's now time for it's 3rd incarnation, or "what in tarnation" depending on your viewpoint.
I popped into the forum looking for some help regarding emissions, I could register as an 'Antique' but would prefer no driving restrictions, and couldn't find any Threads or Posts related to finding the info on the original emissions equipment on this thing.
Over the next few months I'll be poking around for help, that's for sure.
I went ahead and posted pics of it in the Builds section under 1974 DIY Resto/Mod/Hack ... since there are surely more photos to come .. and of course all advice is welcome.

I owned a '74 many moons ago and, IIRC, there were very few emission controls on it. I think it was basically PCV, EGR, and a charcoal canister. I know it did NOT have a catalytic converter. Worst case, you could move to California where '75 and older are smog exempt. It's one of the few things we do right here.
