Re: My new 71
It looks very solid from your photos. I like the fact that it hasn't been molested. Congrats.

Re: My new 71
This is a newbie question.....I've searched the forum and can't find the answer. Truck came with 2 gauge dash, want to put in the 7 gauge cluster. Is it just adding the cluster and sending units?

Re: My new 71
Nice truck, I think I drove by it everyday for about a week, planned to stop and look several times but never did. It was in Topeka up on North Topeka Blvd, right?

No, there is more to it than that... There is a lot of different information in the FAQ forum. Scroll down to the bottom of this page and you will see the "Forum Jump" box. Click on the little down arrow on the right side of the box and scroll down to "FAQ Truck Tech". On that page go down to "Thread / Thread Starter: FAQ Index thread". When you get into that scroll through the different sections and you will find answers to questions you haven't even thought of yet.... I could have just posted a direct link but there is a lot of good info in the FAQ section and now the people that read this thread will know how to get to it. Thanks to Krue for indexing the FAQ's There are instructions for swapping instrument panels there. LockDoc

Very nice. I like that color. Wish I would have kept mine the factory ochre.
