The question was "Are there unique differences in the year that can be identified externally between 86-90 Comanche pioneers?" not "would anyone notice." My '90 has a 10 slot grill, that does not mean it came from the factory that way. '86 & '87 had 10 slot grills.

Good idea, I can look into it. I think a lot of the early build sheets are very sparse on that detail.

Front grill is 10 slot for 87, if bench seat '87 did not have head rests, and as mentioned some paint and interior color differences. Your truck has the Marchal lights which is an '87 thing, so that's good. Just swap your grill.

I had mine laminated at FedEx Office.

That color is Sand, PY7.

Congtas to an original owner!

This is the coolest Comanche hat ever:

I really wonder what code DHTP actually was, this is another 2WD which has this code.

@Pete M His profile picture has the COMANCHE emblem on the fender.

This makes the most sense, nice detective work

End of 2020 update now available, see first post. We ended 2020 with 1166 MJs!

My '90 also comes up with as 2020 Gladiator.

Can a build sheet be pulled or is it lost? @eaglescout526

This has a 2.5L, and code PB3 is Spinnaker Blue Metallic Clearcoat paint.

Now that's a short build sheet.

Hmm, owner claims it's a long bed but body code indicates a short bed. I'll log as SWB since there is no picture and owner has not been around.

If body code contains a T it is 2WD.

Code DHTP is not accurate, this is a 2WD.

My mistake, I did not see @jdog's updated VIN, the 6th position is a 2, therefore, a base.

This is an Eliminator, the 6 in position six of the VIN designates that. @jdog From '90 on the body code for Eliminators contained an "L", before that it was an "S".

Build sheet please @eaglescout526 @jdog

Build sheet please. @eaglescout526 @jdog
