Re: Spid ?

What's the code for the special promotion option? YG8 is for the Highlander package. The other are blackwall tires made for cruising down the highway, as opposed to other tires offered at the time.

Yes the code is 1YG820. I'm looking to purchase this truck and I'm wondering how rare it is. I'm have a hard time uploading the SPID pic but it has lots of options. The truck is a 72 SWB that is all original.

Well, you can always search for highlander now and it will give you details about the truck. Make sure you know rare for these trucks doesn't mean a lot of extra monetary value, like Yenko vs base Camaro for example. It is more rare than a Custom-10 though. The most identifying feature was the plaid seat upholstery.

Actually, the code is YG8. The "1" and the "20" are extra characters pertaining to the functional name, and eventually fell into disuse (replaced with dummy characters).

The RPO is the three space alphanumeric in the middle.
