I love my "cruise control". It came in mighty handy driving Interstate 35
from Dallas/Ft. Worth TX to Minneapolis MN.

Dan, 67.5 and later models have a hand throttle. Your '66 does not. You are
not missing much, nice for tuning up etc when you want to raise the rpm
remotely, but useless as a "cruise control" because it is static and does not
compensate for hills, etc....not to mention disengage when you brake....not
recommended for "on the road" unless you are in the middle of the desert with
nothing else in sight and on very level ground.
Just one more Datsun anomaly.
