Vehicle Description
This 1972 Chevrolet C10 Cheyenne is a restored pickup with an
awesome period-correct look, right down to the two-tone paint. And
as you look closer, this long bed pickup has a few of the best
subtle extras, like cold-blowing A/C. The result is a terrific
classic that you can really enjoy.
Two-tone has always been a distinctive style on vintage pickups. On
this bow tie, it emphasizes the C10's clean, straight lines and
gives these former workhorses a feeling of sophistication. It also
helps that this truck went through a full restoration about a dozen
years ago, and when you pay for quality, it lasts. Plus, this has
been under the same family's care since the restoration was
complete. So you have a classic look, but straight panels and a
deep clearcoat luster to let this one even out-shine your
nostalgia. On a well-done restoration like this, you also get
terrific brightwork everywhere from the chrome bumpers to the
accents of the Rally wheels. Because this is an upper-level
Cheyenne it comes with some nice extra body trim, including the
upper and lower body side accents. In fact, the lower one still
wears its factory-correct 70s-cool wood strip within the
brightwork, and this premium design touch continues on the
tailgate, too.
Nothing says a '70s classic better than a green interior. But just
like the exterior, you have a classic look, but a far fresher feel
thanks to a proper investment. The premium Cheyenne trim and
attention to detail, means this really does have a terrific vintage
look that includes the Western-style texture on the bench seat and
plenty of wood-like trim on the doors and dash. But as you look
around this truck, you'll also spot some worthwhile well-integrated
modern upgrades. This includes the AM/FM/cassette stereo with
vintage knob-style operation, and the air conditioning is blowing
cold with modern R134a.
The engine bay continues this truck's theme of a well-done
stock-style restoration. You can tell they painted the bold block
of this V8 during the restoration so that it radiates from within
this dark engine bay. And when people ask you about this one, you
get to tell them it's a year-correct block. The 350 cubic-inch
motor inhales deeply with a four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales
with a sweet sound out of a well-done dual exhaust. 1972 C10s are
really sought-after because this was the final year for the
trailing arm rear suspension (and this body style), which helps
makes these Chevys ride much smoother than most other vintage
pickups. Plus, there are more comfort features that include the
smooth three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and
power brakes with discs up front.
This truck has been given a comprehensive restoration and great
care, which creates a strong running and smooth driving vintage
pickup. So it's the right package you need to get your hands on.
