I have one, but can't bring myself to install it on a perfectly good visor. I don't think my 71 had one. Didn't have one when I got it in 89 anyway. Ha ha, I just looked at the date on those instructions, my May 1971 truck didn't have that decal.

The instructions say start a warm engine with the pedal halfway down. I've never had to do that (402, 4Brl, 400TH). I don't hit the accelerator at all, and starts right up.

I've never had to crank it per extreme cold instructions.
