Mexican 72 in Canada
I don't know if these are more common in the Southern States, but up here, this is the first one we've seen. My buddies dad picked it up from some farm workers, who drove it up here. Besides the different box, the gauges and most markings are in Spanish, and the speedo is in kilometers. Also a different air cleaner and accessory mounts in the engine.
He wants to loose all the Mexican parts, and add a stepside box. He wants to add a 67 front clip, drop it a bit with a 18 and 20 wheel combo, LS engine and overdrive. Just a nice mild driver. We've built quite a few 67-72s but never saw some of the stuff this truck has. Also, can't believe they drove it from Mexico in the mechanical condition it was in. Everything was worn out!
