In my case they are missing but I have used a snake camera and spied the sheet metal screw holes where the seal mounting points go (or at least most of them).

Some people that fake out Cheyenne Supers may forget the tailgate handle. Then you have a 71 tailgate handle that is chrome and then the 72 is a chrome cover. Another error is having the Super Emblem on the fender shifted wrong between the left and right sides on the front fenders (which is a odd error to make if you ask me). I am actually going through "upgrading" to a Super... so I have done a lot of reading on doing this correctly as possible (though I went with a 71 type tailgate handle, I like that better and that's my prerogative LOL). At least I got the correct glove box wood grain / emblem for 72. :-D

Yes, my tailgate handle is a chrome cover. I guess the reason why some trucks got the seals and others did not will be a question with no answer. In your research have you found anything that is only on Cheynne Super trucks.
