Re: Kick panel vent handle in '68
I didn't realize the later ones were different! You learn something new every day here. My guess is the later design was 10 cents cheaper to source they went with that design.
I saw a news article many years ago how automotive designers tweak every last cent out of their production costs. 50 cents per unit equates to hundreds of thousands of dollars of cost savings over millions of units produced or something like that.
