Conventional, Deluxe and Custom Two-Tone all seem to break the window frame at the same points. There is litle reason to expect they would differ between trucks built at the same plant in the same time frame.

The two-tone cab roof breaks do extend to the weatherstrip flange.

At this point I would suggest enhancing your request to include only original paint 1972 trucks (any two-tone pickup or chassis cab) built at Fremont "Z". Ideally in the serial number ranges of 130000-170000 as these will be the most relevant to your project.

Since Greg's 556 Highlander is both a Janesville assembled truck and a 21 yeqr old repaint I would not use it as the primary reference for your truck.

While the picure below is a 71 (3/71) from Fremont, it is pretty typical of what I am seeing from that plant in 71-72.

Yea I guess I didn't think about the repaint. What does the Janesville build have to do with the paint, did they do things different at that plant?
