Nice truck but would have been better restored.
Whoever ordered this had a clear intent. To get a four speed (an upgrade from the standard three speed) he had to forgo the package savings a YG8 would have offered. Probably didn't like tilt either. To me with a four speed, a posi and both battery options he was hauling a trailer.

The fact he added A/C indicates a preference for the stick trans.
BTW as far as I know US spec Subs were only offered with the C69 front and rear A/C for the 72 MY.
