But the 64,000 dollar question is.... what year is it? here's a photo of the truck; http://new.photos.yahoo.com/graflexmaster/album/576460762394267625/photo/294928804288600461/6 Michael

All of my literature shows the wipers as being hinged out on the corners with the blades resting in the center. This truck has the passenger side hinger in the middle with it resting to the side...could this truck be newer than 1972 (that's where my literature ends)?

I know this truck was made (unchanged) at least up until 1979. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 707 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 707 | And the model designation is LCF: Low Cab Forward. I figure early/mid 70's.
