Waitin' On Parts...
I'm the last guy on the planet that is going to try to "force" you to do something you don't want to do with your own property.
It's just that there are so few original '74 cars around that it would be a "shame" to have yet another one be irreversibly changed. Just my opinion, and probably a minorty one at that!
And I think you hit the nail on the head as to why the state of "X-dom" is in such deplorable condition...for most of its run in the USA, the X was a cheap thrill ride for younger folks who would rather buy beer and hang out at nightclubs with their limited money than buy genuine spare parts and do well-executed maintenance. I might be talking out of school here, but I see posts on this forum from longtime X owners who still take this band-aid approach to their cars.
