Have a SPID but the seat cover in that truck was long gone.
To add to its unique colors it is a YG8 (promo package C) Janesville truck with the center justified "Deluxe" emblem.

Pretty sure i've got a former Highlander (see SPID). Seems PO at some time coverted the interior to a Cheyenne package. I'd like to covert it back. Both the interior and the exterior trim (minus paint job). Do you all think its a good idea? Resale value is important. Do you think itd be a smart investment? Could I offset the cost by selling the console and buckets?

I cant seem to attach pics on my phone, so please see my earlier thread for pics. Sorry for the inconvenience. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...postcount=3374 http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...postcount=3374

that's a beautiful truck! i don't think you'd increase the value over that bucket setup. not enough buyers would see the value.

It was a Factory Highlander, a Custom Deluxe trim upgrade truck. But we already covered that http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...64#post6829664 Posts 3377-3381. Short of fully correcting the truck back to its original paint (Custom Two-Tone, Med Olive/Dark Olive) and interior I don't see it being a worthwhile change. Being a built truck vs factory big block swb does not make it part of that small select group of big block swb Highlanders.

Wow, that is a very nice truck. Parts truck? Please say you're not gonna part it out!

[jocko]

Resto that puppy. WOW! a 557 highlander. It would be absolutely beautiful. Ya know - I recall seeing one like this for sale a while back. Did it come with big oversize chrome wheels?? Just wondering. I cannot wait for pics. One of my favorite paint combos. it is not what is referred to as a "package truck" - but it does have the plaid trim from the factory - so you are officially in the highlander club, welcome.

Yes they offered the plaid trim upgrade on 72 GMC trucks as well. Waiting for a SPID on the GMC davem815 posted the link to. But the interior looks pretty original including the fawn glovebox door like my GMC Highlander example has.

[SS Tim]

Here is an example of a 613 green plaid GMC "Mister-B" acquired for my collection.

[davem815]

There is another GMC Highlander for sale in the trucks for sale section of this site by BAD4X4

Did GMC's require Z62 Super Custom (Custom Deluxe equivalent)? I thought a saw someplace that on GMC you could get Highlander on any trim level, but I can't find anything about that now.

Every GMC pickup Highlander coded SPID I know of has been a Z62 trim level. The one Jimmy I can think of is Z84 based just like Blazers are.

Nice c/20. Looks like a pretty nice Pete next to it also. I'd like to see more of that

I don't have one of these trucks but enjoy reading this thread. Just curious on the GMC trucks, was the fawn painted glove box door something that was only offered with the highlander package? Were these trucks ever offered in short beds?

[SS Tim]

GMC, unlike Chevrolet, generally color matched the glove box door and cluster bezel to the trim color. Parchment interior GMC Z62 trucks used a neutral/fawn color for these parts in the same way they used greeen for green trim or blue for blue trim.
Curioulsy GMC continued to use the fawn accents it seems with the Highlander trim even though they changed the dash pad and steering column to black as part of the special trim combination.

Highlander trim upgrade was available on both swb and lwb 4x2 fleetside/widesides.
