The cab actually appears to be late 70's vintage as it had the newer style wiper switch and wiper motor in it. I've got both a 74 and a later 70s switch and wiper motor that I can use. With the new harness I have I think I'll go with the '74 setup and we will move the wiper switch to accommodate the bezel. Only downside is I'll lose the backlighting and intermittent delay wipers, but I don't plan to drive this thing in the rain too much anyway. The tire widths won't help the hydroplaning situation
