    Does anyone know if I can swap in a newer 76 and up Dash into my 74? I kinda like the newer style and parts are alot easier to get. Right now all I have is the dash plate for my 74 and it is alittle beat up.

    The dash will work fine. You need to attach the windshield clamps and the steering column is a little different. There are a few minor things you will need to address. But it's definately do-able.
