Do you have a 1972 Plaid Blazer/Jimmy? - Page 11 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Graham57a** · 04-20-2018, 05:55 PM

Found an odd one today. Yellow with green plaid, idiot light cluster, non ac, and lots of rust. Only two pictures I took

**DeadheadNM** · 06-09-2018, 08:33 AM

Here's a SPID from a 2wd highlander Flint truck. Thanks to member GSD Guy for posting link: it's on Dallas CL.

Hay Tim I think you already have seen mine, just put the interior in it past winter , trying to get it close to stock.

**DeadheadNM** · 08-14-2018, 09:20 PM

Here's one. Bought from the original owner by a board member. I don't know much else yet but what a nice original paint example of a non promo St Louis built plaid K5 featuring the white accents on the step face and wheel tubs and rear carpet trim strip used up front.

Not into reading minds!
It is a triple white, V8, 4x2, 72 GMC Jimmy SPID picture.
It is NOT a Plaid Trim optioned Jimmy

Trifelynn · 09-21-2018, 05:51 PM

Haha!

I saw the z84 and thought that was the Highlander number. The parchment trim throws me off.

In this case Z84 on the SPID represents the Super Custom trim which was the uplevel trim option. The Plaid trim was an upgrade to and required both the Z84 trim option as well as a hard top.

NJKelly · 09-21-2018, 07:16 PM

Attached is a picture of the SPID on the one I'm buying, pretty sure it's a Highlander. The back seat has the yellow plaid the front seats are not stock.

**SoCoC10** · 10-29-2018, 07:55 AM

64,000 original miles. Well optioned Hugger Orange with Highlander option, tachometer, Air Conditioning and a couple Hickey accessories.

**Matt's k5** · 10-31-2018, 01:51 AM

My 72 Highlander, in still confused why some actually say Highlander on the SPID? and did the Highlanders had to be ordered, or did Chevy just a few made and sent to dealers, mine was on the show room floor I wish it had the factory tach and tow hooks

**Matt's k5** · 10-31-2018, 01:53 AM

my seats were recovered in mid 80's the original avocado plaid is long gone

Awesome truck! I believe if they say "highlander" on the spid they are typically saying "highlander plaid" or "avocado highlander" which is an upgraded seat cover option that could have been added to almost any truck or blazer in 72. The rest of the highlanders are promotional trucks (like your blazer) which came with different packages and options depending on what level you ordered. The spid on a promo truck will typically say "special promotional" and the RPO code to the left of the "special promotional" would determine what highlander package was ordered. Here is an excerpt from the first post in this thread:

In addition to the Highlander plaid trim your vehicle may ALSO have a Promo Package code.
These bundled options with the plaid trim for a cost savings in three packages "A", "B" and "C"
On the SPID they are coded:
YG6
YG7
YG8

Promo package codes.

A= YG6 Plaid Trim, Special Wheelcovers C10/K5 (PA1) or Chrome Hubcaps K10/K5(PO3), Door Edge Guards and Stainless Camper Mirrors (DF2).

B= YG7 (includes A) Adds Turbo-Hydramatic Trans., Power Steering and Tilt.

C= YG8 (includes A and B) Adds A/C and Tint.

Hope this helps,

To the best of my knowledge, the SPIDs that call out "Highlander" are seen on St Louis built K5s only. Flint build Highlanders have SPIDs that do not call out Highlander. The Flint SPID instead calls out “Custom Trim Combina(tion)”. Flint also appears the plant where the promo package builds occurred. St Louis doesn't appear to be the source for any promo package highlanders (or single wall tops).

Feel free to comb through the Highlander SPIDs to corroborate.

Mine has a single wall top and has the special promotional code. They didn’t make it easy did they.

Hagendog · 02-22-2019, 11:39 PM

Guess I’m late to the party. Bought my Blazer at the end of 2017 and almost to interior. Here’s my SPID and the back seat which was all that was left of the stock interior beside the door panels
