1969 Interesting dealer AC

I recently kept this little jewel of a pickup from going to the great drag strip in the sky the other day. Sat so long the front passenger side would take air because the rim was rotted out and the rear end was 3/4of the way sunk in the mud, but for $100 i couldn't let her go to scrap. Very straight pickup, as in very few big dents. Usual rust, but what i most intrigued by was the (what i believe to be) dealer installed AC vents. As seen in the pictures they put them in the same spot as factory and really look pretty good for not factory. Didn't know if that was just the usual for that kind of set up or not...But eh paint on this pickup is definitely polishable and has great patina. Ill have it up on the parts board here soon. Just thought id share.

Coupe pictures are of when I changed the front tire..Didnt want to go and get the jack from the shop so i found the original jack and used it. Amazing how after years of not being used it worked like a dream.

Re: 1969 Interesting dealer AC

I've never seen M38 listed as an RPO on these trucks. TH350? I didn't think they got put in pickups until 1970.

Yes it does have the center controls under the center of the dash. I think I'm just used to 60-66 stuff with the vent and controls mounted under the dadh
