Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup? - Page 28 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Looks to be a complete repaint to me.

I agree!

That is a sweet looking truck

mechanic350 · 08-11-2016, 12:41 AM

i have one of the SWB c10 highlanders that you guys have referenced. and i agree they are a bit more rare than the LWB trucks. and it is supposed to be the ochre and white. i can see the original paint in the cab on the roof liner where they failed to prep correctly when it was repainted white. and all my trim holes have been filled and covered which will be fun to fix. ill just add it to the list.

Someone needs to start manufacturing this plaid seat material again

**jocko** · 08-11-2016, 11:52 AM

SMS does and Tim (Truckseats) can stitch it up. The challenge is getting correct scroll debossed parchment vinyl for the highlander setup - but Tim can help coord with SMS to do this. In the end, SMS had to make the vinyl pieces and provide the plaid - but for some reason they haven't traditionally married the two to market a highlander seat cover. That's where Tim came in to help me out. SMS hinted that they get a lot of requests for this, and might someday mfgr the cover, but don't think they have to date. Took a lot of coordination, but it was worth it.

Hidden highlander, white with green plaid

COOP3726 · 08-12-2016, 07:59 AM

Cheapest price I have found so far is $650.00. That is a little more than I would like to pay since my seat has been already covered and needs cleaning. Name: interior.jpg

white long bed. green plaid

**rustytruck50** · 08-12-2016, 07:21 PM

Not trying to be critical, but I think the 'some rust' disclaimer is a bit of a understatement judging by the difference in the body line on the drivers side between the cab & bed.

**Already Gone** · 08-14-2016, 03:46 PM

Hers is one that is on EBay now. The owner states good candidate for restoration but I have my doubts.

Not a horrible truck, but....if those cab corners are "solid", i do have doubts as to the rest of the solidness of the metal

I meant to put this one up earlier. Nice truck in its day with great colors and A/C, BB and the YG8 Highlander Package and it's on EBay now.

I think that truck is fairly close to me in OK. Pretty sure I contacted the guy, but never heard back.

**rustytruck50** · 09-13-2016, 06:55 PM

I don't know if it's been asked, but was the Highlander available on the 3/4 ton & 1 ton trucks?

Yes, C10-30 Fleetside pickps, C10-20 Suburbans and both 4x2 and 4x4 Blazers (the only Highlander 4x4s and the only Highlander plaid buckets were Blazers).

**jocko** · 09-13-2016, 07:50 PM

definitely available on 3/4 tons, pretty sure on 1 tons also

tommys72 · 09-26-2016, 04:54 PM

That seat is beautiful Tim! Good grief!

COOP3726 · 09-27-2016, 09:25 AM

Someone help me here? I have purchased a 72 custom deluxe highlander and it does not have the body side molding on it. It has a lower molding code of BX2. Was this code for the black or wood grain molding?
