I bought a bed out of Tenn. that had black lower trim but also had the woodgrained tailgate band. Another wrench in the option set is that some trucks with the tailgate band came with a lower trim piece. The skinny trim "should " not be there but- the 1970 canadian built truck has the tailgate band and the skinny lower tailgate. The truck from tenn had the band with trim under it as well.

Amazing that the number of Custom Deluxe's with lower wood grain reported in this thread. I have a May 1972 GMC Canadian Built Super Custom (same as Custom Deluxe) with lower wood grain and tailgate band (no lower "skinny" trim on TG). It is not a Highlander. I can't be sure it came from the factory this way, but it sure looks like it could have.
