**yote1234** · 09-29-2010, 12:12 PM

i bought this nos lighter off ebay thinking it was for my 72 cheyenne. but i dont think it is because it doesnt have the bezel. the instructions show date of 8/30/66 so im thinking 1967? on the top of paper it reads for all truck except tilt cab. i am going to list it for sale or trade but need to know what its for? thx ,dave can anyone tell me what this is for?

Looks like the 67 lighters I've seen. And it has the light bulb option! I'm guessing you could still use this in your 72 if you have a nice bezel, unless I'm not seeing some difference. I've got a 67 at my shop. I'll have a close look at the lighter today. Sharpie

It looks like the instruction sheet shows this being install in the instrument panel. The lighter in my 71 , is in the dash by the ash tray.

It also looks like it is made to match the other knobs on the instrument panel.
Were they in the panel in 67 ?

I think the sheet had instructions for the step vans too look closely at the drawing of the instrument panel it looks different than the trucks

Im curious how this light works. I've never seen that before.

A 67 lighter has little "ridges" all the way around the knob.It matches the rest of the knobs,lights,choke,wipers.Yours should be smooth like the one pictured.
