Is the woodgrain the same? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My dad bought a woodgrain dash bezel and glove box piece for his 72 Cheyenne Super. 10 years later his Cheyenne interior is still unfinished and I need one for my 69 CST. Are these pieces the same? The glove box has 3 holes for the Cheyenne Super emblem. Is this the same for a CST emblem?

As for as the instrument bezel - any year will work. But I'm not sure what you're asking about the glovebox. Do you want to install the woodgrain glovebox trim plate on you're 69 with a CST emblem? I don't know if the emblems have the same stud patterns (woodgrain didn't happen until 71). But the emblems are about the same size, so you could drill new holes to match the CST emblem and it should hide the old holes, or you could cut the studs off and glue the emblem to the trim plate, using double-sided tape.

So your saying that a dash and a glove box door on a 69 CST should have no wood grain on it?

I'm sort of brain dead this summer,

Does anybody have a pic I could look at of a factory CST interior

Low69, what I meant to say was, Cheyenne didn't come out until 71. I'm not sure if woodgrain was available on the CST or not. I know that woodgrain lower body trim was available on CST in 69, I'm just not sure about the interior. Anybody know for sure?

I have never seen a pre 71 truck with a woodgrain instrument bezel or glove box lid, CST or otherwise. I don't think that it became an option untill 71... WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

That's what I was thinking Wes, that the woodgrain interior didn't become available until the Cheyenne model in 71. But I wasn't positive - everytime I think something is a "sure thing" with the 67-72 models, somebody comes up with an exception.

A friend of mine knows where an original 69 CST is sitting in a warehouse, i've asked him 10 times to take me with him when he go looks at it to buy it, but still haven't heard anything. I could take 20 pages of notes lookin at that truck.
