You still haven't fixed the cruise control yet?

OK, I just watched the video, is that an aftermarket cruise lever? Like a Dakota Digital or something? If so, it's going to take some relays to reverse the internal switches inside from normally closed to normally open. This should help. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=398006

I just got the truck back after paint and final asembly this week. 280 miles on it now and yes it drives like a new truck. Huge brakes and hydra-boost can make your dentures fly out of your head.
