1972 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Truck
Vehicle Identification Number: CCS242S205339
The following is a 1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne 3/4 Ton Pickup. This
truck has a proper 292cu in (4.8 L) I6 with an extremely rare and
fun to drive three speed column stick shift.
The restoration of this truck was one man’s labor of love and it
shows in every detail on the truck. While not a complete
rotisserie restoration it nonetheless is excellent. From the
carefully preserved factory inspection numbers in the engine bay to
the beautiful wood floor panels in the truck bed, this truck is a
pleasure to see and drive.
The yellow & white exterior paint is absolutely beautiful with
laser straight body panels. The original body gap fit is superb as
well. The chrome front and rear bumpers are in excellent shape and
are original. The entire front aluminum grill has no dents, dings
or imperfections.
The interior is original to the truck but the carpet is new OEM and
looks great. The door sills are crisp and tidy, all the door wells
and door jams are also clean and in original shape. The truck has
never been smoked in and the cigarette lighter has never been used.
The glove box couldn’t be in any better condition. Everything
works as it should.
Underside is excellent with no signs of corrosion on any of the
fenders, bed or rocker panels. The cab bottom appears
original and in great condition and was not restored. Upon
inspection one of the cab supports does show signs of rust at one
time but appears to have been cleaned up but not welded.
Once you open the hood you will see the 292 I-6 engine combined
with a three speed manual transmission which runs perfect and
shifts smoothly between all the gears. The engine bay was
professionally detailed and brought back to original factory
condition while preserving the factory markings. The perimeter
around the motor was also detailed and restored to the correct flat
black factory paint; it looks as if it just left the
factory.
This truck is beautiful and the object of attention wherever it
goes.
Auction Estimate: $14,000-17,000
