Re: Previous Owner Stupidity

Wow, I feel lucky. There are only a couple of things I'd want different in my 68....

PO cut the doors and added just the door panels from a '72 to allow for some 6x9 speakers. I guess the radio upgrade left him too broke for the armrests (or maybe they wouldn't mount).

Also put in some kind of "off" ignition switch. I'm guessing it's from a similar year car, because the wires are the same color, but they don't have the right connections. Nothing a little twisting and some electrical tape cant fix (intermittently).

Something that bothers me on any car I see it on..Cut the rear harness to wire in a trailer harness. To add insult to injury he also cut the trailer harness off before selling the truck, leaving the wire exposed.

But I've got an otherwise unmolested 1968 C20. I can live with those, so many others have a much worse place to start.
