1) Wiper controls are in the dash.
2) fuel filler is below the body line
3) hood is about 2" shorter
4) grill is about 2" deeper
5) upper radiator support has no bend (straight across)
6) front subrame is not "pinched" in the bend where it leaves the body...(without the ping, V8 torque has a tendancy to cause a crack there)
7) early '74s had unique interior trim that's interchangeable with later years, but uses different screw hole locations.
8) seat belt should straps are mounted solidly to the pillars and extract from the rocker panel area.
...there's probably more, but it's been a while since I chopped up my '74.
Mstng2 said:possibly but a V-8 can squeeze in a 74 without doing the 75 or later front end. look at the nose piece where it says FORD in front of the hood. If its about 3'-4' wide its a 74, If its only about 1' its a 75-78.

I forget which company but one of them will install a scoop (theirs) on their hood for you.fastmustangII said:Ok good. I wanted to get a fiberglass hood, so I can get a hoodscoop, without cutting a whole in the original hood. I can probably sell the original when it comes time.
