Missing options???
Any one ever heard of getting an option package, but having an option removed from the package?
Example, if you get a CST, and have the full foam seat replaced with the bouncy seat, is it really a CST being that that is required for the CST packeag? (that would have been my first Longhorn) Also, Longhorn_Jeff_69's Longhorn...It is also a CST, and should have the cargo light...not there, never apears to have been there either. Any ideas? ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350. Trying to clean up the left over damage from the Dope-Smokin-Old-Man I've been dubbed the Longhorn Freak/Fanatic/Expert, I just hope I can live up to it. FINALLY got the HORNIAC...a '70 one ton Longhorn with a Pontiac 350/350 and lots of 'personality'. Check out The Longhorn Webite.

Truck would be a '70 CST/20 Longhorn
Color is blue, material is vinyl with the scrolling, codes, I do not have. I've been wondering this for years, none of the other owners ever chainged it out, I spoke to all of them except the first owner, but I did talk to his widow. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350.

I had a orange/white 72 C20 Custom Deluxe sub that was fully optioned including the Highlander interior. The glove box option sheet had am-fm radio typed on it but before the clear plastic was applied someone on the assembly line crossed it out with a pencil and there was an am push button installed.
BTW my 69 Longhorn doesn't have a cargo light nor was one called out on the option sticker. ------------------ 72 swb cheyenne super 350/350 69 cst20 BB longhorn

OK, so the CST in '69 may or may not have a cargo light...if you guys are willing, send me the last digits of your vin...the sequential numbers. Post it here, or in my e-mail...don't matter to me. I wanna try and figure if the cargo light might have gotten a late start in the CST package.

Longhorn,
Here's the answer to your question from your Detroit Chevrolet engineering connection. I have been working in this field for the better part of 15 years. Option delete packages are what they are called and they are used to specify a customers specific request when custom ordering a vehicle. All of the big three did this practice until the late 80's - then they went to widening the available option packages they offered, but nothing more - no custom orders. Unless you were a fleet buyer and wanted to order a thousand pink cadillacs for Mary Kay cosmetics (ever seen one?) or a Hertz, U-haul or Ryder fleet comptroller ordering Medium-Duty trucks, you can't get custom order vehicles anymore. But back in our time (67-72) this was common, but most folks just ordered a package. Hope this helps ------------------ 1972 C-20 Longhorn Custom Camper, 402 big block, A/C, tilt, orig. AM/FM, Highlander cloth interior, dual battery setup.

While that is true, wouldn't it be noted on the option sheet? A package minus an item?
