What threw me was yoru original comment about needed new knobs - the I looked at had no knobs at all. Yours appear pretty good, why do you need new anything on that?? Anyway, that really is a cool buy - one year only, all original, good deal.

I wasn't real clear in the original post, sorry bout that. I already had an original control; it's the one that needs knobs and levers. It does have good cables that I can swap over though! I'm glad it wasn't up for bid so there was no bidding war!

That sounds like something I'd be interested in! I've thought that I'd like to eventually ad A/C and that would let me keep the stock control panel. I'm not really into stuff that looks like an add on and doesn't match the original style of the truck. That stuff is ok on a custom, but I'm after more of an original look with upgrades done "underneath" that aren't too noticeable.
