Re: 74 sub...20,000 miles
Single color Cheyenne package trucks do not include the lower trim . Some have them and some do not . I have seen several Cheyenne trucks that didnt and most of them do .The lower trim was added on the order form . If it is a twotoned truck ,then the lower trim is added to section it off. That is on trucks
On the Suburban above ,it does show the truck left the factory as a med blue/white truck. My guess is that the owner special ordered it that way . Remember that there was a time you could have it your way. Even if someone would have repaired a rocker pane or something ,it seems odd that they would have removed the lower trim only . I would love to have it but as a parts truck for a shortbed or crewcab. Frank

Re: 74 sub...20,000 miles
The '73 sales literature shows this style of 2 tone paint, without the lower trim, calling it "Conventional Two Tone". My first Suburban (purchased back in 1981) was this style with red over white.

Re: 74 sub...20,000 miles
Here's the '74, showing the same two tone.
