Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?

It may be black. Might have just been green Dashpad making me think that. Painted area is pretty faded. Still don’t think Dashpad and seat cover match, but after almost 50 yrs something is bound to be changed.

I can tell it a Promo Code YG8 Highlander which would have included tilt and A/C. It looks like the seat was orange plaid which would be okay wiyh the yellow/white paintbut I think the gray would be better with the yelllow white. You planning on restoring the truck?

Guess I’m late to the party. Bought my Blazer at the end of 2017 and almost to interior. Here’s my SPID and the back seat which was all that was left of the stock interior beside the door panels

I was told that the Seat has been recovered 14 years ago. I would like to get it back to the original highlander plaid eventually. I noticed that my SPID does not actually say highlander (I still believe it is a highlander based on everything I've read) according to its SPID it is a Z62 custom deluxe with the 611 custom trim and YG8 special promotion C. It has tilt steering, a/c, PA1 deluxe wheel covers and tinted glass. Oh, it also has front disc brakes.
Any input is greatly appreciated

Is it for sale?

[Donald24c]

Does anyone know what this black tag located on the back of the seat is? I also noticed that the inside of the glovebox seems to be made from a cardboard type of material.

Have not considered selling it yet. I've only had it about 3 weeks.

Yes, the glove boxes are made of cardboard. That tag is probably the part number of the manufacturer who supplied the seat to GM.

Welcome Donald, sharp truck. Yes a true Highlander trim truck (yours would have been blue plaid orginally (611)) and it's a Promo Pkg C, as you mentioned, which is why you have A/C & Soft-Ray (part of Pkg C) and tilt, TH350, and power steering (part of Pkg B, included in C), etc. The packages are cumulative, i.e. A is included in B, and both are included in C. Z62 just means it's a Custom Deluxe trim level, which was also the only trim level that could have Highlander plaid piggybacked onto it. PA1 wheel covers are part of the 1/2 ton packages. Front disk brakes were standard on all 71 and newer trucks, so nothing earth shattering about that Nice truck! Here's a pic of the seat cover that goes in yours:

Nice Highlander and as Jocko said has all the right stuff having the YG8 " C " Package. You can still buy the proper plaid upholstery from SMS in Oregon. Here is a link to their website.

They say they have the highlander plaid in stock. Seat foam and everything. No waiting like I hear others are for months.
I just wonder if it's a decent product.

Good question....I was wondering that myself. They don't have any pics or much in the way of information, just a very quick, loose description.

Which part number within that (large) group would be the highlander?

Just the cover.
1972 Chevy Highlander seat cover, just like in your picture. Part number 24210. $429.00 Order at www.carsinc.com or call me to order at 1 800 CARS INC
I didnt ask for pictures. I sent him one, without the scroll work. He said just like that.

The next cosmetic thing I do is the seat. So, I'll go first. And post pictures. But dont hold your breath. Its gonna be a few months. About a grand to get the foam, the cover. And then get it put on by an experienced person.

Here is mine.

Ok, so has anyone on the board every bought/ordered one of the highlander seats from carsinc?
If so, how does it look and fit? ....the real deal or?

Without a pic and a better description, I'm leery of buying anything along those lines from anyone.

All good
