Re: I like STOCK trucks
I just love that truck Greg. One of my favorites. I’m curious if you have any info form po’s that confirm what caps/wheel covers camr on it originally? I think the PO1s you’ve put on it look perfect. Being a custom deluxe that is not a promo package highlander (with PA1s) and also not having PO3s on the SPID means it must've come with stock white caps, I think. Any old pics etc that would lead you to believe the same? Interesting combo and wondering if perhaps some initial showroom horse trading went on before it left the dealer.

Re: I like STOCK trucks
All I can say is I like stock trucks. And that's a fine '71 Super Custom.

Re: I like STOCK trucks
Thanks for sharing those pics Greg, I remember when you first got it and those caps that were on it - they are 76+ caps I believe. By horse trading at the dealership, I meant that since the truck had some cool options on it but also came with white caps just like a Custom when new - perhaps the dealer and initial buyer did some horse trading and put PO1s or PO3s or something else on there. No way to know unless the seller had some real old pics. Nothing concrete to suspect that other than the fact that the white caps are long gone (as are whatever else may or may not have been on it in 72).

My '72. Seat was recovered in 2016 with period material and color. It's more green that what shows in the picture.

Re: I like STOCK trucks
Flip
What's a "manual throttle" look like?

Re: I like STOCK trucks
Thanks for the flip. Don’t know how myself.
It’s a knob on the dash that looks just like a choke cable. Set the idle up for the PTO Last edited by Leonard60; 12-31-2017 at 11:06 PM. |

Re: I like STOCK trucks
not sure about the engine side of it, but the control is the lower left knob on the bezel of this 70 K1500 burb
I suspect it looks much like a choke cable with a stop on a slotted gimbal on the throttle lever.. local ad, I looked at it and passed.. think it's sold, ad's gone anyways.. seems like they would be useful for pto equipped manual trans trucks but I guess you could use it for cruise.. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: I like STOCK trucks
What doesn’t make sense to me is I posted these same pics in a different thread last year when I got this truck home and all the pics were right side up. What the hell. Even the same iPad I used then. Go figure. Can’t figure out how you guys are flipping them but thanks a lot guys.

Re: I like STOCK trucks
All 71-72's have the manual throttle on the passenger side. That dark gold suburban is a 70, not a 72. Not sure I have ever seen it on the drivers side before?
