So what year is it? I know it's either a '74, '75 or '76

I like the the '74-'76 'birds way better than the '77-'78 'birds.

I used Poorboy's pro-polish with a black Edge 2000 wool pad on a rotary to do the deep cutting. Menzera Final polish II on an Edge 2000 wool foam pad to take out the Buffer marks i put in and finish up the polishing and I used Optimum spray wax for the sealant.
