I have one, not sure it's 100%, and I wish it was worthy
for the amount of coin you are offering for an OE set-up.

The second photo from wugungy looks very close to the photos I have seen of 72 NOS systems except for the vacuum manifold looks different, the black housing is missing off of the cable end of the servo and the turn signal switch rather than the lower dash Cruise-Master switch. Does any one know if the other parts are correct for 72?

Dan, the control/set switch is under the dash on 71 & 2's, 70 and prior used a larger cruise set/turn signal lever that was all chrome and kinda bulky looking when compared to a stock turn lever. Did'nt I sell you an nos 71/72 underdash cruise master switch last year? If wanting another switch there is one currently on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GM-Cr...QQcmdZViewItem

[DANTIP]

Mel,

You did sell a Cruise Master switch to me. I thought I had a system bought that was missing the switch. Please let me know if a system surfaces. Thanks!

The second set is theset you need. The turn signal switch is acceptable, but the cruisemaster switch is correct. The first set looks more like 69-70 set up. The pieces are there including the bracket that attaches to the throttle cable bracket. This is nice stuff for sure.

Not to hijak but curious and it does apply sort of. Is the second set also what the 71 should look like? Or are there differences between 71 and 72?

I don't think that there are any differences between 71 and 72, but the early(top pic) cruise is different in that the pod mounts on the firewall and a chain pulls the throttle rod. The 71-72 style had a throttle cable and the pod mounted on the inner fender. Also, as mentioned above, 71-72 had the cruise master switch mounted under the dash, and the early style had a switch in the end of the turn signal lever, and I believe Classic Bowties is correct in saying that the original turn signal lever switches were all chrome(very hard to find item). Rod has alot of knowledge about factory cruise setups, and has a thread or two in FAQ about it. Dan, if you decide to buy the setup above and need a new under dash cruise master switch, I would trade the one that I have for the turn signal lever.

if you have a part to offer in reply to a wtb it must have a price.

[stope4]

Dantip, based on your post, are you saying you are not interested in what was offered here in response to the title of this post?

[dcdave]

RE:- CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGEMENT SWITCH:
Per 1971 Chevrolet Truck Service Manual -- " The engagement switch which is located at the end of the directional signal lever is used to control the system and for upward and downward speed adjustments" Illlustrations and service information for the cruise control is contained in Section 15, Accessories, Cruisemaster.

This is what my 72 has... curious to know if it's GM or not. It's not listed on my SPID.

[71 super]

Dazza, that is aftermarket set up. Send me your email and I will email you pictures of the stock stuff on my truck

[stope4]

- Ok folks. I don't think Dantip is interested in purchasing this item. His last email leaves me thinking he has had a change of heart or it's not original enough. I think he may have done you a favor because I am a second person very interested. I'm willing to pay for nos. I'm also willing to pay for used and original. Either way, I'd like to see pictures of what you are selling.

WUGUNGUY, I am interested in the item you show in the second picture.

Let's give Dan the benefit of the doubt, he has always responded to my parts for sale threads and paid promptly. He may be busy, and probably does not live on the site like a lot of us (including me) do!

[DANTIP]

None of the systems offered were NOS '72 systems. The second system offered by WUGUNGUY was close but the wiring is different for the Cruise-Master dash switch that is correct for 72. I may have interest in the good used system offered. Thanks!
