Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
No, it looks like at some point the plaid was replaced with fairly plain gray cloth. Haven't seen it in person yet, so it may be a completely new cover. All the rest of the parchment pieces appear to be there and in good shape though.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
So I think I'm picking up the black Highlander. Just need to coordinate someone to ride shotgun to go snag it up. Unless I get there and its way worse than expected, I'll have some pictures to post. He says he has the original sales materials from when it was purchased new as well, so I'm anxious to see those.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Thanks! I did bring it home last night. It's fairly rough, but has good bones and is really sound mechanically. I have to bring it into town from a friend's house this afternoon, so I'll try to post more info on it tonight. Need to go through the original sales docs and see what all is there as well. I know it was built in St Louis and sold in Murray, KY originally, and the protect-o-plate is there with the original manual and a bunch of other stuff.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Here's a few pics of the new truck and there's a link to the new hosted album in my sig... I included some shots of the original paperwork that came with the truck. Unfortunately I don't see a build sheet under the seat and there's no window sticker in with the paperwork.
Drove 100 miles last night to my friend's place and never missed a beat, but I started having what I think is a fuel starvation issue driving the dozen or so miles home this afternoon. Had to pull over twice in 12 miles. Never died, just felt starved after driving five or six miles at highway speeds. Fuel filter is clear and full when I pull over, so I'm guessing maybe a float? After pulling over for a minute it was fine again for a while. The Edelbrock on it is pretty gnarly looking and I'll probably replace it anyway. Also found a badly burnt plug wire on #5 after I got home. I'll replace all the wires and plugs this weekend and see how everything looks from there. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
The vinyl is in pretty good shape, but I can see where there's been a few repairs up on top (I don't think anything too noticeable) but the vinyl panels on the driver's end are pretty haggard:

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Looks very fixable.. I would reach out to SMS and see if they have the grey in stock, sometimes they don't but usually have a timeline when they will weave new bolt.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
I just got some gray this week, they have it in stock. It is a little darker than the factory gray, but it's all they have.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Can you share a pic? Maybe it is darker cause it is brand new?

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?
Looks great. Good score. You can rebuild the edelbrock for around 40 bucks. I would run a couple bottles of fuel cleaner through as well just to be sure. You can also test the fuel pump. I can't remember but I believe there is a screen on the fuel inlet on the carb that you can unscrew the fitting and clean as well.
