73/74 Judging Guide Items - Item 1

[Robert S.]

In going through my 73/74 Technical Information Manual and Judging Guide (2nd edition with updates) I came across a few items that neither my son's 74 nor my own 74 reflect. I would like to obtain input from other owners of a 74 on 8 items. I think I will post these as 8 different posts. This will be post number 1:
1. If you have a convertible with the optional hardtop an open ended wrench for use with the hardtop is supposed to be in the fiberboard tray. Do any 74' owners have such a wrench and if so can they post a picture?

I have never seen this wrench in a 73 or 74 but it could have been missing in action.

I did not receive any wrench for my hardtop when I took delivery of the vehicle.

...I thought the first issue would be the 1974 "9xx" paint code number.

I can't speak to '73-74 specifically, but the hard top wrench WAS part of the earlier Shark HT option and decent reproductions are available from several of the catalog houses. Try thumbing your copy of the C-Central catalog to it hard top section...
