Here's some...the Custom got the following regular equipment where the
Standard did not.  There are also options that the Standard did not have
access to that the Custom did.  Disclaimer: Information from the GM
Restoration Kit.

1.  Medium blue interior (code 761-bench) whereas the custom (136) got
dark blue (codes 764-bench/765-bucket), no bucket seat option (A51) and
no sport shift lever option (M08).

2.  Body side lower molding - front fender, doors & rear quarter.  (The
Standard got a rocker panel molding instead.)

3.  "Cortez" silver below body side lower molding.

4.  Body side twin paint stripes.

5.  Bright roof drip gutter molding.

6.  Bright door frame scalp molding.

7.  Black paint filled rear end panel or tailgate molding.

8.  Tailgate wood-grain insert between tailgate moldings.

9.  Radiator grille bright center molding.

10. Concealed windshield wipers with articulated left blade.

11. Bright windshield molding with wide lower molding.  (Standard got a
narrow lower molding.)

12. Silver-painted rear view mirror support.

13. Front seat cushion, 1.75" foam pad.  (Standard got a 1.25" foam
