Interesting. Nice find. And moving the decimal one place to the right wouldn't match dollar wise what one costs today.

Funny how a radio cost 62.45, but heavy duty springs were 5-7 dollars.
just like 4wd was $ 550 more.

Funny that radio cost 62.45 when 396 opt was $161.Even funnier if you knew how tight my grandfather was.Then again he diffently was a car/truck guy and took great pride in his vehicles.I've seen the man waxing the panel while it was starting to snow so it would protect the paint from the snow storm that was coming.

Would you be willing to post a pic of it (the paperwork)?

My truck is a 3 OTT and I have to admit, it's my second favorite shift type for truck and in some ways, I prefer it....

It cannot be beaten when you have a bench seat (as should all vehicles) and you are on a date that likes you as much as you like her.

If and when I get a panel/burb.....I want a bench seat and maybe a 3OTT......

chris mc bride · 10-12-2015, 03:28 PM

Can't stand to 3OTT going to be 4spd auto shortly.Besides married and no need to worry about that fun part.LOL

Dude, if being married doesn't equal constant and daily sex then don't get married.

Why does everyone want an automatic? Where is the fun in that?
