Two Tractors?

As many of you are probably aware, the semi received a minor upgrade for the start of the third season in Fall, 1984. Starting with "Knight of the Drones", a sleeper cabin was added to the cab. However, evidence is beginning to pile up that this was a completely different cab altogether. Points to back this up:

1. In season one's "Knight Moves", it's established that the interior of the semi is tan colored (see screenshot). Also, take note of the two air horns and the bullet shaped marker lights on the roof. This tractor seemed to carry the 1U13265 license plate.





2. Now, take a look at this screenshot from season four's "The Wrong Crowd" - the interior is gray. Also, the roof marker lights and horn configuration are different. This tractor seemed to carry the 2J01192 license plate.




Can anyone identify the sleeper cabin? In all of my research, I have never found another GMC General with this same sleeper cabin. Is it aftermarket or custom made? Don't know...

    looks like a custom sleeper. It wasn't even attached to the cab. Close ups of the driver through the windshield shows an opening to the sleeper. But in KITTnapped you can see that there is a space between the cab and sleeper.
