Re: The find of a lifetime!
Had a request for pictures of the cruise control setup. Also took Ol Blue down and got some new Mickey Thompsons and my buddy thought he was gonna be slick and take her for a spin... I think not! Ol blue sure cleaned up nice!

Re: The find of a lifetime!
thank you sir, you just resolved 1 issue right off the bat. i had been told that all 71's had the button under the dash for cruise control, and i thought that i had seen several that were on the column like yours. now i know for sure.
also, the other pics will help me get mine set up correctly, i appreciate your help, and enjoy your beautiful truck.

Re: The find of a lifetime!
I am amazed after some really good cleaning and a little polish how the original paint has really come alive. Have the seat and carpet out for some good cleaning and wanted to show how nice everything was. Original tool bag still in the cab corner looks to have never been out.
