Hey John,

You can add the truck I'm refurbing to the list. It's a '76 model/titled truck.

Build Date: Sept. 1975
VIN: FJ40-208738
Engine: 2F-071568 (I got the truck without an engine, but it has the engine from my trail truck in it now).

My 2/76 truck no longer has a 2F.

My Sept. 1977 truck (FJ40-259459) is in your list as a '77, but I bought it new as a '78 and it has always been a '78 model/titled truck.

By the way, I'm coming up your way in about 2 weeks. You can turn off the snow machine any time now. I hope we can meet up to talk cruisers. You seem to have an amazing trove of cruiser info.

Thanks,
Todd.

Just curious as to why my 6/72 build was put in the 1973 year list? Does this mean it was built in '72 but sold as a '73?
