Options Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

metalman · 01-30-2004, 05:21 PM

Couple things on my glovebox door that i dont know what they is.
first one is

Z62 - Custom Deluxe Equip

did a search and found some doods talking about the Z62 option but they had something different written after it as opposed to what i have written. Talked about some extra chrome or some extra interior stuff. ??????

the second one is:

YG8 - Spec Promotion PKG C

Did not find anything on a search for that.
ANyone know what that consists of?

oh and one more.
not sure on this one exactly.

B85 - Belt Molding

everything else is i guess obvious as to what it all is.

thanks for any info.

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!

You have a 72 Highlander with a/c, auto, tilt, plaid seat, black carpet, door edge guards, etc.

basically a mid-year 72 only promo package that combined a bunch of options at a special price. 3 levels, A, B, and C. C was the most optioned level.

Z62 - Custom Deluxe Equip

Highlanders could only be ordered as custom deluxe trim models. This got you chome centered knobs, chrome around the windows and wing vents, a full foam bench seat, chrome on the inner door panels, and the little 'deluxe" emblems under the fender badge.

B85 - Belt Molding

Is it a 2 tone? Cold this be the chrome mounding along back side of cab?

metalman · 01-30-2004, 05:36 PM

wow cool thanks for the info.
not sure if it was a 2 tone and i have no chrome on the back of the cab. except for around the window.

So is this Highlander option rare or anything? or was there plenty of them made.

thanks again.

I am not sure of numbers or anything, but I think the Highlander was pretty rare. I know of 2 other guys on this entire board that have one. One of them is HatGuy, and I think the other guy is JayDubBlazer, but not sure on the last one. HatGuy has done some research on Highlanders, and would be a great guy to talk to or ask questions. Great score on that blazer! I would LOVE to have started with a Highlander to restore!

Here is a pic of his plaid original seats in that Highlander blazer. Do yours look like this? Cool, huh?

metalman · 01-30-2004, 05:47 PM

hhmmm maybe i should not do what i plan to do if it is rare and sell it to someone who wants to restore it.
radio hole has allready been cut but other than that everything is intact, sort of. i mean carpet is gone, blah blah stuff like that. i think i have all the body badges. dont think i have the body side mouldings. i have the stuff from the big block that has been taken off. intake, exhaust, stuff like that.
i am the 3rd owner of this truck. i bought it off my friend, and his family bought it off the original owner in 1974 i think.

thanks for the link. original seat long gone. haha
but i have a green plaid trim option. i guess that would be it huh?

1970blazin · 01-30-2004, 05:51 PM

I think a Highlander would be the best restore because it came with all the options you could ever want on one of these trucks, and the seats are different than the norm. If you have that glovebox sticker intact and the right VIN I would think it would be the best candidate to restore. I am sending you a PM.
