Kinda breaks from precedent. As a data point, very similar situation for me with a 76 I had - EXCEPT it had the Special Paint code. It was 88 orange, and in 76 that was only available on series 40-90, so the SPID made sense.
Anyway, you've got an original black 73 and that's pretty awesome! |
I guess I should ad a pic of my SPID. Kind of hard to read. Probably wasn’t the best idea to move them to the engine bay. I find it odd that it says color combination, but the truck is all black. OR I should say it once was haha. The only other trucks I can find that mention that rpo are some of the later 70s sport models. Not sure if it has anything to do with it, but the truck is Canadian built fwiw.
