    Those just look so amazingly comfortable.

    What's up with the back bumper? Are the Plastic bumper filler panels warped. Something is askew.

    Simple! They had four lighters and four ashtrays, plus the ‘shelf’ in front of the speedo was perfect for a couple packs of smokes. No cupholders, though; if you wanted a beverage you stopped, got out, and went into a Stuckeys or Shoneys for that. (A highball glass would sit on top of the dash or a beer in your lap-being kept cool by the ballblaster a/c vent were ok for driving, but no eating!)

    The link someone posted where there are interior pics shows the driver's side interior door panel with a script "Custom".

    The color you see in the pictures is way off of the correct color, they took liberties with the photo color adjusting - this picture shows the actual color, it is a far softer blue than the pictures depict[​IMG]

    Nothing wrong other than a little bumper misalignment. The shadows in the corners are playing tricks on the camera lens making the gaps look worse than they actually are.

    Still looks to me like it has been wrecked and poorly fixed on the left rear corner. I'm just looking at the fender extensions. The shape & contours/creases don't match from side to side.

    The bumper is pushed in on the left side. Blow up the picture and you can see the left side is in and the right side is out.

    It's a simple left rear bump that collapsed the energy absorber. The gaps along the deck lid are just typical GM quality control of the mid 70's. New absorber on the left side and I bet that bumper will be fine.

    Like I said....... a simple bumper adjustment and everything would be copacetic.

    Those fillers (end caps) got funny shaped before they turned brittle and broke off, and the replacements (plastic usually) are not the most accurate repros.

    That's the money shot for sure! The rear is why I bought mine! Side profile is great and the front is o.k. in a locomotive sort of way. I miss my '74 2 dr. Electra probably more than any car I had.

    My all time favorite of the era was 1974 landau 2 dr. because it had the nicer vinyl top. If I came across one, I would probably trade in my wife for it.
