It is actually a pretty cool looking Pkg. for that truck, which needed some styling help IMO.

Found these today looking for something else. "Vintage" 1983. I had just brought the Bonneville home from Grandpa's in FL and was selling the 'Stang. That '69 was a cool car. Paid $1300. Sold it for $1500.

302 3 speed 4:11 rear. Cost me my license for a while. That thing could scoot off the line. Too bad state trooper doing paperwork in a church parking lot could hear it raging through the gears that night. "I heard you coming" he said.

He got me for 85. I was descending from 110 - at least that was the # I saw the needle dropping past when I picked up the blue light.

This sheet of synthetic rubber coming off the rolling mill at the plant is now ready for drying. Synthetic rubber made by the “ameripol” process is derived from butadiene (a petroleum derivative). In this rolling mill the crumbs of rubber are squeezed dry of excess water and pressed together into the blanket show here. B.F.Goodrich Co., Akron, Ohio, 1941. Photo by Alfred T. Palmer.
