They are getting rare :D quite a few people on this board have them. I daily drive my KA24E powered 620 KC. It has some of the factory ac a tac and bucket seats. I actually got the engine out of a 95 pickup. Check out the write-up I did :D My daily

 

I don't really know what the DELUXE means... I'm sure someone does :D

 

Nice to have you on the board.

Welcome, kool 620! Post a pic of the sunroof soon...sounds like a 70's product that Steroid would love to see & may know more about it. I believe the Deluxe's had A/C & th estickers on the body. Holic...fill us in on that..:D

[datsunaholic]

Not all "Deluxe" ones had A/C. The early KCs ('76-77 at least) the Deluxe meant it had bucket seats, a radio, and a console (bench seats were "standard" even in KCs in '76 but it was rare to see one as most KC's were "deluxe". The buckets became standard in KCs around '77-78 timeframe). Later in '78-79 the Deluxe added fabric door panels and a nicer steering wheel. A/C and a 5-speed ('77+) was always an option, never standard in any trim level.

Yard sales are good sources for 8 track tapes. KC and the sunshine band, Donna Sommers, Barry Mantilow, the Bee Gees, and Zappa's Shiek Yerbouti

I wore out two Dark Side Of The Moon 8 tracks before switching to cassette.

And I myownself wore out 3 (THREE) "Boston" tapes along with "Cosmos' Factory" (Credance Clearwater)...I think I may have a Box Full of 8 track tapes here..(wait, maybe my Daughter took them when she moved to Portland..) I will ask... Holy crap I think I also still have a piece of junk "Kraco" 8 track tape player here as well.

Wow that "sunroof" looks like the one in my 620 except it's not a bubble shape. I actually dont like mine & wish it wasnt there. Kool project truck there, i like the mirrors..they look original.

[Icehouse]

I love KC, gotta have the room when your 6' 1" and there is still room for speakers :D

 

That bubble is interesting :) It would be nice for hot days.

In the first photo, what's the truck behind the brown Chev and between the two white trucks? Looks kind of like a 720's square lights.

 

Ice, you could wear your cowboy hat in the truck with that bubble.

[Atmurray48]
