Now the question begs to be answered.. What tweaked you to call this a possible Highlander with seeing the spid ? I'm sure I'm not the only one that wants to know.

...both Highlanders (very original trucks) I have owned had the full woodgrain insert on the lower molding.
Maybe when both the upper and lower moldings are ordered they kick it up a notch with the woodgrain addition.

Maybe SS Tim can wade in on this.

All Good

My truck is a non package highlander with the original black mouldings. I was thinking maybe the Package Highlander trucks got the woodgrain moulding but this truck is not a Package truck. Maybe it was plant specific thing.

Possible human error? The assembly line guy reached into the wrong bin and grabbed the wrong trim? May not have realized he put on the wrong piece(s) and when it got to "inspection", they just let it go vice removing/replacing what was already on the truck? All speculative, at best, but I do wonder what amount of human error plays into some of the odd ball/out-of-the-norm things we discover about these trucks.

Already gone, green plaid trim is on the spid. So it isn't a package highlander, just the seat upholstery highlander

The original gold is on the firewall. Looks more like a Cadillac champagne type color to me

Mine is a C package highlander with upper trim and lower belt, never been apart, purchased from the original owner. Black. I don't think it's an assembly line error, have seen too many highlanders with black lower belts. Perhaps the woodgrain lower belts were assembly line errors ;) (this would make an interesting poll... Hmm. Standby)

We touched on this before. Jocko per your build sheet it was built with black lower bodyside moldings. However I have another Package truck also from Fremont with woodgrain lower bodyside moldings called out on the build sheet. They go either way and not as a line error.
To generalize, a Custom Deluxe (with optional lower bodyside moldings) had black lower moldings and a Highlander could have had woodgrain. So if you see a Custom Deluxe with woodgrain there is a really good chance it is a Highlander.

Please I'd like to suggest if you have Highlander questions to post them in my Plaid truck thread and leave this thread to what it is intended for, an ad discovery listing.

I thought this was kind of sharp for someone who likes big trucks.

I just saw this super clean long bed box on the Phoenix Craigslist. $800 with tailgate and lights.

Tim, where is the black vs woodgrain called out on the build sheet? I thought BX2 was the RPO for lower body side molding regardless of whether or not it was black or woodgrain?

Seems like a good price, although no shots of the frame/engine bay.

I've been staring at the one in Louisville since it posted yesterday....

Well, I had the money all lined up for the one in Louisville, but when I called he sighed real deep and said, "Naw, it's done been sold...". Sounded like he was tired of phone calls, so I'm guessing he had no shortage of interest. The listing is still there as of now, but apparently its gone.
