This is correct. Although traditionally the new models come out in the fall, there are specific cases where as a manufacturer we do whatever we want.

For example, when we introduced the 2002 Cadillac Escalade (GMT820C) we started the model year on January 2, 2001 and ran the 2002 models through the fall of 2002 calendar year.

The only Federal requirement is that you cannot have two "January 1sts" included in the same model year (hence the January 2nd start date).

We do that now, but not so much back in the 1990's and earlier.

Re: Chevy Sport Truck questions

The red on a Sport should be Victory Red if I'm not mistaken. The paint code would be 9260.

sorry iv been away for a while i ended up selling that truck, it was in fact a 94 model year, if i remember correctly build date was 10-94 witch would normally be the next model year truck but it wasn't so 95 was in error

i had just looked at the build date at that time and assumed 95 model year.

Re: Chevy Sport Truck questions

Always thought my '94 is a "Sport", but it doesn't have Sport decals. No chrome and all black trim (grille/mirrors/fender flares/bumpers) on red. 4X4 decals , rally wheels, 5 speed and 3.73 gears , shortbed, originally a V6.

The bumpers and trim look correct to me.

It's also missing a grille, door handles, mirrors, window felts. The BMW in the background has primer spots on it, so I'm guessing that it's a partially assembled body shop picture.

In 1989, at least, the Sports got the special red/black side mouldings. Other years, I don't know.

Re: Chevy Sport Truck questions

In 1991, it looks as though the 2-wheel drive Sport got the special red/black side mouldings, fog lamps, chrome wheels, black mirrors and body colour bumpers (with rub strip on rear bumper). The 4X4 Sport did not have side mouldings, but got aluminum wheels black coloured bumpers with no rub strips, mirrors and wheel flares.



The next question would be whether rub strips were available as an option on the front of the 2X4 and on both front and rear on the 4X4.

Re: Chevy Sport Truck questions

Here is some old pictures of my 1994 sport , 5 speed, with V-6 engine. I owned this for 14 years. I sold it in 2010, wished I still had it .

Re: Chevy Sport Truck questions

Very cool truck! Me and my dad found a 454ss truck with grass growing around it here in lufkin texas. Has aftermarket taillights, bolt on roll-pan, and a monster tach on the dash,, People said they blew the motor up last week... and they are going to rebuild it.
