Re: Door Pillar Vent
I think 1971. I know not 1969. Perhaps 70CST can comment regarding his 70.

Re: Door Pillar Vent
Looked at a truck that was a 67 by the title and numbers on the truck frame but it had the door pillar vent so the cab could be a 71-72 as it has the front disk from a 72 they may had to use the cab because of rust or something. The cab is in very good condition!

Re: Door Pillar Vent

Re: Door Pillar Vent
It started in 71 i believe. Not sure if it was a mid-year thing or if certain plants did it, but some 71s had it and some didn't. I think all 72s had it...

Re: Door Pillar Vent
There was a poll on here awhile ago. I had no luck finding it though.
