Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Also found this one on CL up the road from me. 69K original miles it says. Looks like a nice truck. No spid pics but looks like a legit Highlander

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
That 72 looks real Nice. Could use paint touch up but with that low Miles would be a awesome find. Or leave as is and clear coat to keep the patina.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Found this one surfing Craigs list. Its a C20 which is not as common as the C10 Highlanders. Although no Spid posted I'm very sure its a YG8 Promo Package Highlander with the tilt and A/C being visible.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
I wouldn't pay $19K for that truck. Too much clearcoat, no A/C and rust on the wheels. I don't get it, if people are asking top dollar for their vehicles, shouldn't the vehicle be in top condition and highly optioned? Certainly, the original paperwork and P-o-P adds a premium to it, but not sure it warrants $19K asking price. The televised auctions and restoration shows have skewed many into thinking that ordinary run-of-the-mill trucks are worth their weight in gold.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
I have never seen a vin (7th digit #) or a SPID like that. Perhaps some of you more knowledgable members can comment about it. I find stuff like that really interesting and would love to learn something new. It has a pretty interior, for sure.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Looking at that paperwork, it was built in Oshawa, Ont. Canada, I remember seeing a thread about those having a different SPID. They built C/K trucks from 1965-1998

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
In 1972 they went to a 13 digit serial number. On any 72 the first C means it is a Chevy and if it's a T it's a GMC. And just for more info they went to the 17 digit serial number for the 1981 model year and they still use that today.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Here is a "hidden" highlander currently on eBay. The seller calls it a SWB Custom Cheyenne but the SPID is for a loaded up LWB. It is a clean, great looking truck.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Nice looking truck. It has a short bed on it though. Maybe it's converted. Pretty clean either way.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Thanks for posting that one, Jocko . I got in touch with the owner this morning because I have never seen an Atlanta built truck with the special promo code on the SPID. I was hopeful that since it is in Asheville it was possibly built in Atlanta. It turns out that is a Fremont truck. I will keep looking. I have seen a bunch of highlanders from Atlanta, but I have never seen one that calls the promo out. If anyone has one, I would love to see it. Thanks
Mike |

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
68 Crackerbox yes your truck is a Highlander as confoirmed by the 604 Gray plaid seat on your Spid, but it does not have one of the Promo Packages. If you check out post #38 in this thread it explains in detail all the variants of the Highlander trucks.
