I believe there is a post count that must be achieved for that to happen. You can put it on one of the many free hosting sites, copy & paste the link in your post.

We have a part number gurus on site that should be able to provide help shortly.

Anyone ever seen one like this?
You betcha, dozens of them.

The part number is D70Z-3649-A .. Horse Head
Genuine Ford factory installed option introduced in 1977.

D7OZ-3600-A .. 3 Spoke "Sport" Steering Wheel-Leather Wrapped.

D7OZ-3600-B .. 3 Spoke "Sport" Steering Wheel-Soft Foam Wrapped.

Optional: 1977/79 F100/350 & Econoline / 1978/79 Bronco // 1977 Maverick/Comet // 1977/78 Mustang II // 1977/79: LTD II (not an LTD!)/Ranchero/Cougar/Thunderbird/Continental Mark V & Versailles/Granada/Monarch/LPinto/Bobcat.

1979/80 Mustang/Capri // 1980 Granada/Monarch/Lincoln Versailles/Pinto/Bobcat.

There were 8 different horn buttons, for examples: D7OZ-3649-B .. Wreath with 3/Lions / D8TZ-3649-A .. Blue Oval.

If people wanted speed control, it was only available dealer installed. The Speed Control switch assy attached to the turn signal handle.

HOODRAT: Does this Bronco column you bought have a tilt steering wheel...or not? You know how the tilt wheel operates, doncha?

Hold the steering wheel with right hand, use the left hand to gently press the turn signal handle forward. If it has tilt: BOING!!

i wish it did. most of my past trucks had it. funny you say that tho, i have also shown a couple of buddies the tilt, they have had their trucks a long time and did not know it. kinda like how you have to down shift a cruise-a-matic to make it hold second gear. the indicator only shows; P r od d 1, no mark for 2.
