78 cruise options
i am doing the planing at the moment on a 78 F150 2WD 300i6 rebuild. i want to go daily driver and am wondering if anyone knows of cruise controll setups that can be modified to work on the ol 78. i know that there was a factory available setup but the one truck i have seen it in the guy was having a hell of a time keeping it working. i know most of the early 90's vehilcles were throttle body injected and still used a vacume operated setup whitch i believe would work but i am just wondering if someone had already done something like this and saved me the trouble of starting from scratch.

I have what appears to be a dealer installed aftermarket cruise control system on a 79 parts Bronco. It has the controller attached to the turning signal lever.
Pm if interested.
