ebinmaine 67,696 #1 Posted January 3, 2021 I got this in the parts pile of the auction stuff two plus years ago and I pulled it out recently because I wanted a source of 12 volts with this type of plug for a plow light. Then I looked a little closer and it's manufactured in Meriden Connecticut and it's obviously got some age to it... The stamping reads CUNO MERIDEN CT 12V I haven't tested it yet to see if it will heat up. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Racinbob 11,100 #3 Posted January 3, 2021 Unfortunately I don't think so Eric. All of them I've seen are like this: You've got a cool one though. Apparently that's a weather shield on it? 3 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHNJ701 4,165 #11 Posted January 4, 2021 Must have been an option, my 68 suburban (orange) doesn't have one. Or was it just super suburbans (blue ones). I am not to familiar with the Sears @Stepney Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not to familiar with the Sears @Stepney Pretty sure just the Super got the lighter, and often an ammeter too. Can't let just any man on the average model have a smoke, you know.. that's just for the man who paid the extra 75.00 for the Super .. what with the moon hubcaps, lighter, and a *slightly quieter exhaust The orange was an older standard color, then it sort of fluctuates between 1968-70 before being used only on the Custom line. There was also a "Special Suburban" in orange that was .. just a Suburban .. that said 'special'. And there was an orange Hydro Trac for a short time. Im not sure if they had any idea why, either. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
