New Member Highlander questions?
First of all I would like to introduce myself my name is Luis. I stumbled across this wonderful forumn a couple of years ago when I was Googling info about my truck. This forumn has tought me alot! I had been wanting to post my first thread for a while now but I'm not to good with the computer(besides surfing the web) so hopefully when my wife helps me I will post some pics. About two years ago I purchased 72 custom/10 deluxe to replace the 69 swb that I sold about 7 years ago when I got married! Man I wish I would have never done that! (sell the truck). So I got the 72 it is a lwb original truck Hugger orange and white with a 350/350 factory A/C (missing compressor) power steering ,brakes, tilt( which P.O. replaced with non tilt, don't know why!) I already purchased a van tilt so I guess I will be contacting Kevsclassic to convert it soon. A couple of days ago I saw a thread from driller 35 that he was asking about the wood trim mouldings, then member Classic Bowties brought up the subject of the Highlander trim package then I realized that my truck has the highlander package. I would like to know if this is a rare truck which I should restore to original condition or is it just another run of the mill truck? I purchased A swb truck for the frame and bed to make the 72 swb when I restore it. I was also planning on putting the Cheyenne trim with the houndstooth seat covers. I was also wondering if anyone knows if they sell the Highlander seat cover because I have never seen it in the aftermarket world and finding an original is probably impossible. My original highlander seat covers which I didn't know where kinda rare are long gone! That was one of the first things I changed on the truck because they were torn up pretty bad. I replaced them with a factory black one that I got from a guy in town that never used it for his resto. Well hopefully I will post some pics. soon thanks Luis Oh Yea I would also like to send out a big shout out to Big AL 71 which I met a couple of weeks ago at the local cruise night. He is a real nice guy and his truck even BadA$$ in real life that thing is sweet!
