My parts guy....(junk yard score!) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Longhorn Man · 12-18-2002, 01:52 AM

Lookey what I picked up today at the local junk yard.

I pulled it and it was only $35. Plus I get a $5 core once I give them one of my crappy non-tilt columns.
It is out of a '81 Van, and even has cruise control. I think the cruise switch is fubared...but who cares, i have another one to put up in there.

I'm as happy as a puppy with 2 peck.... oops, this is a family place.
So, the little adapter that I need for the harness....anyone know where I can get one? I'll probably make my own adapter, but I'll at least look into the proper one.

neonlarry · 12-18-2002, 02:34 AM

I wish I could find one of those for that cheap. I have only seen 2 of them ever, and they were both in vans that still needed them.

Hooter · 12-18-2002, 03:57 AM

I think I might have one lined up out of an Rv it even has the older style cruise button

Andy,

Canada20 · 12-18-2002, 01:10 PM

I'm just being a jerk...nice score

I can't see your plug, but if its the flat one you don't need an adapter. I just pluged mine right in. Everything worked.

Longhorn Man · 12-19-2002, 12:15 AM

V-dog, how did you plug a flat plug into a curved plug?
jamie72, how much? (you have an IM)

69sixpackbee · 12-19-2002, 01:33 AM

Good deal!
I was fortunate to score six of them in one day after visiting 4 yards and I spent a total of $140.00.
They can be had boys...ya gotta dig!

Hooter · 12-19-2002, 01:53 AM

Plus I like the shorter shifters that are on the van tilts compared to the unusually long ones that came on 67-72's

Longhorn Man · 12-19-2002, 02:15 AM
