Re: another question

disc brakes were standard in 71-72, and most I have seen were power. air cond was an option, not uncommon. cruise control was a dealer added option in those years, and is somewhat rare.

Re: another question

The donor '71 model truck I used to convert Old Yeller over to disk brakes did not originally have the booster. But like leddzepp. I think that was more the exception than the rule.

Re: another question

Back-in-the-day disc brakes were not automatically "power".

The first car I ever owned '69 Camaro RS/SS had front discs, but no power (brakes or steering)
