What's in the GMC Sierra Grande package
 
What's in the GMC Sierra Grande package for 1972, I have a 1972 sales brochure for Chevrolet but not one for GMC. I tried looking on the GM heritage
center and they don't have anything on GMC. I'd like to know what was standard on the Sierra Grande package

It would be the exact same content as the equivalent Chevrolet trim level.

They use the same RPO. That's why there is only one generic info packet.

The packages can't be exactly the same as the GMC Sierra Grande package has the big chrome Sierra Grande strips on the rear fenders and the Chevy Cheyenne Super doesn't have similar Cheyenne Super. emblems.

Glove box emblem and the rear box sides script emblems Sierra Grande and if it has buckets the emblem on the lid would all denote GMC.

RPO YE9 does in fact offer the same features on both Chevrolet Sierra Grande and GMC Sierra Grande. Both are actually an RPO on top of another RPO, Z84 Cheyenne/Sierra. GM didn't list on the SPID that way, but just the names and features tell it. You could read the correct replies made just yesterday in another thread here asking virtually the same question, only for Cheyenne Super.

GMC still did a few things their own way in this era. One was the bedside Sierra and Sierra Grande emblems, which you pointed out. GMC introduced the Sierra and Sierra Grande a couple years before Chevy came out with the Cheyenne and Cheyenne Super counterpart. In those years GMC did list both as an option on top of another option. They did other things different from Chevy, too, but more the same by 71/72. I don't know why GM didn't put Cheyenne Super emblems on the bedside. Probably figured the cool western block letters were cool enough on the fender. GM only added the small simple "Super" below. Imagine big block letters spelling all that out (again) on the bedside. The GMC script style works well, same as Longhorn. I figure GM just decided to leave it on the GMC because it worked out well.
