New CC owner

I just picked this baby a couple of days ago from my wifes cousin. His dad bought it brand new in 76 and many yrs later his son got it. Now years later I got it. Whats neat is my wife road in it several times growing up from the age of ten. She's now in her 40s. It has the 390 four on the floor and only has 84k on it. Never been wrecked. I wanted a CC for a long time, now I just need to make it a 4x4


1976 F250 Shortbed

Very nice crewcab, and cool to have some family history with it! Good to see another one close to me. Let me know if you need anything and I'll keep my eyes out for you!

If you get tired of that trim on there, give it to me, I'll throw it in the trash for you.

Thanks for the responses. I'm planning on hitting the wrecking yard this weekend to see what I can find. I need a heater core. This one leaked so they cut the hoses and spliced them together (cousin)

Question Need a Wiring Schematic

Anyone have a good wiring schematic for a 1973 F250 CC? The ignition switch and the connector that goes in the back of the instrument pannel are different from the ones on my 1978.
The '78 has more wires on the ignition switch and the connector is longer on the intrument pannel. I plan on using both from the 1978 on the 1973.
The chilton manual I have only goes back to '76 (I think). Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Vern

Luckily I don't have the ac. My 78 Super Cab does have ac and I'm selling that truck, was debating on wether or not to take it out and put in the CC. I would have to do the whole dash along with the ac because I have no vent on the CC.

A white 4x4 CC just went up on craigslist in Denver. 6300 bucks. I think I have seen it listed once before. Doesn't look too shabby. Just out of my price range.
