Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Suburban?
I have a 72 orange and white suburban and unfortunately the spid had been mostly removed. I will get pics into photo bucket and get them on here.

I would say this one is done. Started out blue and was painted along the way.

Great reference pictures of a now sold Orange Plaid back seat under a period plastic cover. Scroll work detail is awesome!

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Suburban?
Reproduction Highlander Plaid pickup bench seat covers were seen in the wild last weekend.
Thanks to Jocko (a Highlander/20 owner), who found them at a local show. While still apparently special order (as most of their seat covers are) it is encouraging to see. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...&postcount=805 Thanks to GR8-68 for pointing us to their ebay listing in a follow up post. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...&postcount=807 http://www.ebay.com/itm/282109613247 If anyone gets information on Suburban specific covers from them please let us know. Remember it takes demand to get a product like this made. |

Tim,
Here is one I picked up today to scavenge parts from. Poor thing has seen a better day. . |
Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Suburban?
What a shame. I bet that was someone's pride and joy once.:(

I found the glove box door for a blue parts suburban I had ages ago. It had a white seat with the blue plaid cloth, but there weren't any other seats in it. I didn't read all the info you posted so I'm not positive if its original to the burb. Here is a pic of the spid.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Suburban?
Dark Blue looks great on burbs!
Your parts burb was however the regular Custom Deluxe blue cloth as built. Blue Plaid would have had trim code 542. |

Sweet original burb. When I saw this post and the spid post on your longhorn, I noticed you had 2 trucks, both from California. Funny thing, I just drove a truck I bought from NC to CA last summer. Good luck fixing them up!

Clearly it needs a little love but the finished result should look awesome and a lot like this one. |

Although I do not have pictures of this Burb, I changed computers a few years ago and can't find the pics, I thought I'd post up the spid. I mentioned this one to you one time Tim. It was on Craigslist in Albuquerque in late 2010/2011 and wasn't in bad shape but of course I was haggling and when I finally came to my senses and decided to buy it the seller had sold it to someone in Florida. I do remember the front bumper was twisted away from the body on the passenger side. Looking at this Spid now it was a YG8 Package Burb in hugger orange with the orange plans seats.

Reluctantly selling our beloved Suburban. We are the second family to own the truck and we've had it for over ten years. It has about 2000 miles on a completely rebuilt motor done by a professional shop (I have all receipts). It starts, runs, stops perfectly. All lights, locks etc work. Has working front and rear A/C but will need charged. Truck is a daily driver and shows some character. Had a few spots developing in front of the rear tires and rear quarters. Pretty typical for this year. Interior looks great but not perfect. Original Scottish Tweed seats in fair condition. The front could use some attention. We hate selling Tortuga. It has been a member of our family for along time and we've even wrote/recorded a song about her. Original factory 402 big block. New tires, rebuilt carb, new battery, new starter. wood bed is perfect ****** I have just had an expert educate me that this truck is a very rare Highlander Edition only available in 1972***** The interior package and seats were only available in the upgrade package of 1972 and is quite rare. Floorboards /door jams all excellent and solid. Pls call or text with questions. |
Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Suburban?
Looks like every SPID posted on this tread were all built in Flint Michigan. Is that the only plant that produced Suburban's?

I got a couple of pics of Fremont California built Burbs.

Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Suburban?
Interesting enough, every '72 Spid, in this thread and the Suburban/Panel spid thread, is a Flint truck.

You learn something new every day. Thanks for the information. I was wondering if the special promotional interior was only available at the Flint Michigan planet.

Found this YG8 Package one on eBay and it needs full rest. It'd be a beauty restored with all options ( except that 4:11 rear end ) installed. I contacted the seller and the A/C parts are missing front and rear as well as the third seat and the radio although the dash hasn't been cut.
