I love it! I remember seeing rigs back then with that color scheme, so I think maybe they kept it original. There weren't many, and even back then I wasn't very impressed with that combo, but it does help quickly and boldly state "this is a 70's truck". Although, looking at the GM Heritage Center info it doesn't look like that combo was an option in 78, but I may be reading it wrong because I don't even see where black was an exterior color choice and I know that can't be right.

What impresses me most is the fact that GM is finally acknowledging the square bodies (specifically, the 70's models) as an important part of their design legacy. Has anyone else noticed the truck commercials that attempt to pull at our heartstrings and trade on Chevy history by showing a series of dreamy flashbacks with a 51, then a "grumpy" model 56 or 57, lingering long on a 72, and then skipping forward to whatever new model they're trying to promote? It's almost as though they didn't want to acknowledge the squares.

Heck, it even looks like they kept the NP203! I just wish there had been a picture of the SPID. Seems strange a loaded Silverado like that wouldn't have cruise control.
