Hi everyone. I purchased this 1985 GMC C3500 just over a year ago have not been able to find any information on any other trucks that are the same as it. Some of the option codes I have never seen before. Has anyone else seen a 'Gold medal special' option before? If anyone has any information about this truck or its options or if you have seen one before like this please let me know! thank you.

Could be like the YH4 code used for special or seasonal packages of different types.

I’ve also seen YH6 Listed as SEQUOIA SPECIAL.
On both my GMC High Sierra and Sierra Classic
the SPID lists Gold Metal Special YH6, Not Gold Medal.
My 1984 Sierra Classic did have unusual black factory stripes..

Mine has the "Gold Medal Special P" 1YH6 code too. Have yet to figure out what it means. But mine says "Medal", not "Metal"...:shrug:

Model code TC10903 is a long wheelbase.

Is your truck a long box? It looks short in the photo (it looks GOOD).
