Yes, Exactly. Rowan and Martin's Laugh In.

Anyway, I really suspect Dad's truck is the way it came from the factory, and Rusty probably is. So, I'd be willing to be that the book is wrong, at least as far as that factory is concerned.
I'm going to be watching the Dukes of Hazzard, "The Great Santa Claus Chase", today. It has two 1981's with Amber lenses, and one 1980, or 1981 with clear. The show was broadcast 12/19/1980 so either it was shot and produced in November, for December broadcast, or you could very well be right. ...or even both!

It would be interesting to find out when it was filmed. I googled it but only found when it was shown, not filmed.

I watch that episode every year. I think its the only one with 7th gen trucks in it.

Merry Christmas everyone.
