Since you asked, the plaid was only available on Custom Deluxe trim level trucks. Yours has been clearly up modified from its original condition and while presenting well is incorrect per the SPID.

Shortbed Highlanders are few and far between and "as original" this would look great. The "Custom Two-Tone" code 557 is also a rare find in itself.

Take a look at my thread on "Hidden Highlanders" as your is.
If you want a complete breakout of the SPID back to stock I'd be glad to help upon request.

my vote would be keep the bucket seats and console , better ride and looks great , one of these days I will have a set of buckets in mine....

Thanks SS Tim for the insight. So do I have a Cheyenne with "Highlander" Options (A, B, & C) since i've got the power steering, chrome window trim, etc? Were both these options even possible?

Also, the color combo has both greens. How would that combo looked on the original truck? Dark Olive along the strip or on the body? Anyone got any pics of that two-tone pattern (dark & medium olive)?

OK I'll hit the highlights here but generally its easier to keep on track over on my Highlander thread linked above and here.

Your truck was never a factory Cheyenne.
It was built as a Custom Deluxe (Z62).
It also had the Highlander Plaid cloth trim upgrade to Z62 which changed the trim colors and added black carpet.

Some trucks had the Highlander Promo Packages (YG6,7 or 8), yours is not one. They simply bundled common options for cost savings but included the Highlander trim upgrade as part of the Promo Packages.

Custom Deluxe included the chromed window trims and your truck was ordered with a chromed front bumper upgrade (without any rear bumper).


The paint scheme is called "Custom Two-Tone". It is defined by the 557 paint code as a Dark Olive (506) body color truck with a Medium Olive (504) roof. Here is a picture showing the colors and application to a IIRC 70 CST/10.

This was my son's first vehicle bought for him by his grandfather, my dad, 16 years ago.

It's just about to go to body/paint, so I am in the middle of deconstruction.

Hope to have it back on the road sooner than later.

Fixing to get started, first one is my dads ol 72 4x4 :chevy: that I am going to do a frame off starting soon. Second one is a 69 parts truck I just picked up. A previous owner put the 69 body on a 76 frame.....

Our 1967 C10 LWB. Originally a 250 truck, but it has been rather terribly swapped over to a 283 before 1980 according to the title. This 283 is well worn and smokes out of both sides of the exhaust whenever it's running. Originally a 3 on the tree, but somebody put in a 3 speed floorshift and only used ONE bolt to attach it to the engine. Key? We don't need no key...

We don't need no bed floor either...

The truck does drive though, but it would probably choke out anyone behind if it was driven on a public road...
