Not terrible far, I work in K-ville at Shepherd's Buick GMC. Thought I was the only one in this area with one of these old KZs, Great to hear I'm not!

Actually the whole reason I got mine is because me buddy from LaGrange has a '75 and '76 400 and he has been helping me with mine

here is a pic of his '76 behind mine
