Trying to find what my original interior colors were
 
I am trying to research if the interior colors of my truck make sense with the SPID and package and my research is a bit confusing so far. ChatGPT is full of it and I dont think it is accurate. I found a good post on here that explained a lot this but it was quite old.

My truck is a 72 Custom Deluxe and currently has black carpet, black dash, parchment doors and bench seat and a black steering wheel and column. I have chrome bumpers and wood lower trim on the outside. I think someone changed the seat as it is not the highlander green inserts.

According to the SPID the truck was a level C trim but I understand that the Custom Deluxe models usually came with the colors I posted above and the seat was the only highlander option and this is not a complete highlander truck. It sounds like the Custome Deluxe was a mish mash of options

Chat GPT says the interior would have been all avacado green and I dont think that is right.

I don't think you will find what you are looking for from any chat
But, this will give you everything you need to know about your truck

This is exactly what your truck interior looked like from the factory

Your truck is a Highlander..

All Highlander's were custom deluxes

All Highlander's had plaid seats, parchment door panels, black-dash-carpet-steering wheel/column

Thank you, I cannot get over the green seats with the yellow exterior as I think the orange would have been better but I undersaw it was the 70's. My mom had the green appliances that were fugly so maybe it triggers me LOL

I guess I was wondering if this was a case of all highlanders were custom deluxe but not all custom deluxe were highlanders.

Was the embossed scrollwork on the seats with the plaid OEM or did the plaid pattern not have the scrollwork. I can have my all parchment seat re-worked with paid for $900 or a new seat with plaid and not scrollwork for $700

Look up carsinc.com. They have the seat cover with the embossed center just like factory

I dont think this is the correct steering wheel for my truck either.
