Lightbulb blade type fuses?

what year did ford start using blade type fuses? was it in the 78 79 trucks? i got a 75 i wouldnt mind converting to blade but if that wasent a factory option on this body style then i will just put autoreset breakers in.

First year for passenger cars: 1979. First car to have them = 1979 Mustang

The Ford truck parts catalogs don't list blade type fuses for F Series trucks till the 1980's.
