Will the doors and panels fit from a notch to a hatch? Also can a v8 be put in a 1974 if I have a whole 1976 doner car engine and tranny?

Door panels same 74-78, the glass is different between coupe and hatchback. Sticking a V8 in a 74 is a challenge, but it can and has be done though.

Remember to swap the frame side motor mounts before you try installing the engine in the 74 or get rid of the donor car! Also, If the 74 doesn't have the 8 inch already installed, it would be a good idea to swap that in as well. Otherwise it's fairly straight forward I think.....
Good luck!
