As stated before The rules are a little hard to understand, what is needed to change year models, just state it to be a 74 or is there badges etc.. to be changed?
Thanks

I like the Duster idea too, but since you're a chevy guy, have you ever considered the '78-82 Malibu's? Just check out the 'Vegas nationals to see that the Malibu was No. 1 in both Stock & Super Stock, due to the greatness of one "Jody Lang"!!! The 2dr Coupe body ruled the roost in Super Stock, and the 4dr Wagon did likewise in Stock! If you haven't already bought the Duster that is another option for you.....
Moreover, have you considered a Ford Maverick for Stock? Didn't the Sporty version of that car come with a 302V8 in it??? Or how about the late 70's Ford Fairmont/Mercury Zephyr sport coupe? If I were a Ford racer, those bodies are my favorites to go after for a sleeper stocker...
Another mopar idea would be the Dodge Aspen/Plymouth Volare cars, with either the 360V8, or the 318? As for the tranny, the 904 is an automatic and I'd steer you towards Turbo Action for them, because they seemed to be the best at mopar auto trannies (at least during the 80's & 90's). I may not race a Mopar, but I have a lot of friends who do...
