I'd be happy to trade a rust-free, dent-free 69 clip for a 67 of equal or better shape. Has to be during winter months as truck does not get down-time during this time of year. :p

Finally: Here's some pix of the wiring fix and the interior (with my gopher killer Ruger 10/22). I bought an angle grinder, a remanufactured master brake cylinder ($22 with core rebate), and a carburetor rebuild kit. My weekend will be full.

Yes, and thanks CPNE for the original tip about the dimmer switch.

'Mixed heritage', huh? Looks like it works well together. I like the dual headlights.

Yeah me too. I had a 67 GMC parts truck that was screaming to be stripped and re-used some where else, so I obey'd its wish
