Yeah.
AFAIK, Deluxe Trim on 67-70 is the shallow. Deluxe Trim on 71-72 is the deep. What I mean by "shallow" and "deep" is the depth of the connecting "foot" in the trim that goes into the corresponding slot in the gasket.
That's ALL "Deluxe". "Standard" is the gasket without trim. And, of course, without a slot for the trim.
What I was saying, was that if you have a 67-70 and you want to be "completely stock", then you'd have to go with the shallow trim. But, since it's "hidden", all you really need in order to meet the Deluxe trim spec...
...and to have the trim fit properly, is to have the correct trim to match the gasket.
If I'm wrong, someone please kick my a**.
Very nice truck in your build, by the way.
