Truck color question

[novaX522]

I was told my truck was all black when I bought it. The SPID shows black/white. The top appears it may have been white. Is there anyway to tell the paint scheme from the SPID?

Yes, 530 is the conventional two tone scheme of 521 white roof over 500 black body. Truck was born with a white roof (and the chrome trim strip around the back of the cab is another clue it was two tone).

And you probably know this, but you have a Highlander interior trim option truck as well (not a YG# promo package truck, but a plaid seat trim truck).
Your truck appears to have a parchment custom cloth seat cover in it now (i.e. houndstooth), which would not have been original to the truck - they were in Cheyenne Supers only. Very cool truck and a great example of a Highlander that came with optional P01s (vice the PA1s in the package trucks).
Your truck would have come with this seat cover for reference (SHARP in a white & black truck!):

Thanks for the knowledge!
So would it have been all black except the roof? Or could it have been black/white/black with a white roof?

I never even heard of the Highlander package. I did a little reading after you mentioned it. It does have white door panels and visors. It also has black carpet, dash pad and column. The guy I bought it from had the seat redone with houndstooth. I like the gray plaid a lot more. Maybe in a few years I will switch it back.
I’m new to reading SPIDs, very fascinating. I’ve learned a lot about c10s since joining this site. Just reinforces these are the coolest trucks ever built!

It would have been black with a white roof.
