My thought in all this is...
What items would be found in this truck back in the 70's if it was out on the farm when the crops were being planed.
Or if it was taken out on a picnic.
What might you find in a 70's truck.
Most of my items are 60's to 70's but I am using my old Brick Cell Phone.

I had a couple of Justrite head lamps very much like that for search and rescue. Battery box was the same but the lamp/reflector assembly was detached on a long [36''] cord and the lamp head was attached to an elastic headband. Some guys attached old coiled Mic cords in place of the 2-line zipwire, so it would slip more easily off obtruding tree branches on the trail.
Extremely reliable gear. USA made.
Then Petzls came out.
