RFCDrum Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Something about the Crackerbox just says cool .I'm sure back in the day though it was a different story as with most trucks of that era. Lousy heat, power, etc. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Hancock Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Always liked them, probably has something to do with being the first truck I rode in when my dad started driving in 66.The one in the picture is now in Nova Scotia all painted up and waiting for the 12 V 71 to go in.

rsb502 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 My plan is to mini lite the visor. The reason to eliminate the top stuff is because I get a lot of water in through the roof and can't find the source.I would bet on under the vent , there is a rubber seal around the roof vent you can buy online from watts and replace use sealer inside the grooves on the gasket, also under the air scoops thru the bolt holes for the center light, water kinda slows down under there and has more time to elak thru, the small led lights in the visor aint a bad idea.

RFCDrum Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 That's going to be an animal with a 12v71 in it. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsb502 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I just happen to know where a 12V71 is, Im still trying to decide if I want to go get it or pass, it will make me ready for another project truck for sure, wonder if it would fit in an RS700L?
