Vehicle Description
This 1972 Chevrolet C10 Cheyenne Super has a great classic style,
right down to the correct big block V8 under the hood. Plus,
there's all the best features, including a bucket seat interior and
A/C. And as you look over all the details, you'll see a mix of
preservation, restoration, vintage, and premium that makes this an
absolutely cool pickup.
The Cheyenne Super package on a C10 means a premium machine. While
today we may think of many trucks as high-end cruisers, a
half-century ago this was a rarity, and that makes them really
sought-after today. And speaking of desirable features, this was
born with the full black package. This has been given one respray
about three decades ago. So it has an aged-in look that's cool for
a pickup, but some people may want to look at restoring a
show-ready shine on this one. After all, this pickup is not only
desirable for its rarity, but also its completeness. You have the
special Cheyenne full-length accenting with its hallmark wood-like
inserts, and the tailgate is done to match, too. The bed is clean,
the bumpers are bright, the doors close with confidence, and you
have the iconic rally wheels with new beauty rings that come with
the sale. It really is well-done down to details, like the redline
tires.
Inside the premium black theme continues. There is evidence to show
that the odometer likely represents the full actual mileage, and so
that means this truck has averaged about 1,200 miles annually. That
kind of low use is reflected in the condition of the interior. The
carpeting, door panels, headliner, trim, and dash all show like
new. The seats look especially awesome with their correct Cheyenne
western-style pattern. And yes, this has the ultra-desirable dual
bucket sport configuration with the center console. It's part of a
setup that shows a premium pickup loaded with all the best
features. In fact, there are plenty of classic truck fans who would
love to get their hands on seldom-seen details, like Chevy branded
8-track player, shoulder belts, and Cruise Master cruise control
button. But you'll love this for more than just impressing others.
The loaded nature means you also get comfortable features like the
Delco AM/FM radio and factory air conditioning (now blowing cold
with modern R134a refrigerant.) You'll love slipping behind the
classic Chevy three-spoke sports steering wheel. It's on a tilt
column, so that you can get a good view of the bright and clean
gauge package that even includes a central tach.
The engine is a 402 cubic-inch V8, as advertised on the front
fenders. And you're looking at a year-correct big block under the
hood. So not only do we believe this is the original motor, but
also you can see they made sure to give this a highly original
setup. Everything from the air grabber to the exhaust manifolds
looks stock. And everything from the bright block pant to the nice
hoses tells you this has been given the right investments along the
way. The motor fires up readily as it inhales deeply with the
four-barrel carburetor. The V8 feeds a stout TH400 three-speed
automatic transmission its way to the 12-bolt rear end. The 1972
C10s are really sought-after because this was the final year for
the trailing arm rear suspension, which helps make these Chevys
ride smoother than most other vintage pickups. Add this power
steering, power brakes, front discs, and modern tread on those
classic redline tires, and it's easy to enjoy the roads in your
easy cruising pickup.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual, service manuals,
and maintenance records. This Chevy has been given the right mix of
investments and respect so that it can remain a terrific
representation of a true classic premium Cheyenne Super. It's so
authentic that it has even been used in a feature for Sport Truck
magazine. So you know how special it is to find a pickup with this
many desirable features. That's why you know you can't let this one
slip away. Call now!
