Vette(s): 1974 Red with Black Interior. This vehicle was originally purchased and owned by my father and past down to me.
If I wanted to replace the interior door pull straps on my 74 is this as easy as it looks? Meaning unscrew the existing screws and install new door pull or will this require the removal of the door panel? Thanks in advance.

Great to know. Had the driver's door one disintegrate on the way to C3X - several hours of driving after we had visited Mid-America Motorworks...!!! |hammer| |cussing| |laugh|

Just make sure you don't over tighten the screw. You're fastening to sheet metal and its easy to expand the hole if you tighten too much. Yes, it is as easy as replacing two screws.
