Super 8 off of Churn Creek Rd at the South end of Redding is decent...there's a good Mexican food place across the street in the little strip mall.

As for the top 3, they are what they are.
Does your truck say Explorer on the Glovebox...? The Explorer package came out in '68.
I would think the optional booster would be a brake booster...?
The rear springs would probably be overload springs.
When was your truck built...?

I know it's a Ranger, The '69 Ranger's have a specific Grille.
It probably has the Explorer interior.

"parchment" is the color

The second is the number of times the pinion gear rotates in relation to the ring gear. 3.50 means it turns 3 1/2 times for every single revolution of the ring gear...3,300# is the rear axle's weight rating

The third is the tire size...wsw pt = white side-wall passenger truck

Not positive about the other two things, and since you're looking for answers I won't guess.

Oh, It may have been a motif type of interior, like maybe stripes or whatever.
