When I first started going for ride alongs with my dad the passenger seat was a piece of foam covered by some hard as hell fake leather shit. It was loud, hot and rode like shit. You literally bounced all over the cab.
The dash was a piece of sheet metal that held the gauges and switchs.
Drive train? A 140 or 180 HP engine was the norm, and the 220 cummins was the big boy on the block. No turbos or S/C's at that time. Two transmissions were the norm, and I remember riding in one that had three. If memory serves me right it was a 4X3X2.
