I was a bit dissappointed in the trim level of this truck. I thought Custom would be a bit nicer, but looking in the 1972 GMC trucks brochure and dealer album, it had become the base model. There's no evidence that the panels or brackets ever existed. There are no srew holes or marks in the paint. I do know that even the second row seat was an option on this truck -- it is listed on the Service Parts ID label. Since there is no third row seat, it is a full width seat like the front, but has the armrests attached to it. If you want in the rear area, you have to jump over it or go around to the tailgate. The doors do have the plastic panels, but the ceiling and rear area look just like a cargo van inside. Just the outer skin and some bracing. Maybe the GMC base model was more stripped down than a Chevy.
