This 1972 Chevrolet K10 Cheyenne Super is a beautifully presented
frame-off-restored 4x4 that combines classic Chevrolet truck
styling with desirable equipment and a highly detailed
presentation. Finished in a striking red and white two-tone
combination, this regular-cab short-bed K10 has the stance, trim,
and appearance enthusiasts look for in a premium square-body
predecessor.
The exterior retains the truck's unmistakable early-1970s character
with a chrome egg-crate grille, chrome front and rear bumpers,
bright body-side moldings, Cheyenne Super badging, and 8-350 fender
emblems. A white cab roof and white body-side panels contrast
sharply against the deep red upper and lower sections. The
woodgrain Chevrolet tailgate panel adds another important
Cheyenne-era detail, while the pickup bed has been refinished in
matching red for a clean, cohesive appearance.
Power comes from a Chevrolet 350-cubic-inch V8 finished in
traditional Chevrolet orange and topped with a factory-style
air-cleaner assembly. The engine is paired with a TH350 three-speed
automatic transmission and a two-speed transfer case, giving the
truck genuine four-wheel-drive capability. Additional
driver-friendly equipment includes power steering, power-assisted
brakes, cold air conditioning, and functional heat.
The engine compartment presents cleanly, while the underside
reflects the frame-off restoration with a refinished frame,
suspension components, drivetrain, and bed floor. A dual exhaust
system exits beneath the rear of the truck, and steering
stabilizers are visible up front.
The truck rides on 15-inch Rally-style wheels wrapped in
33x12.50R15 BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A tires with raised white
lettering. This wheel-and-tire combination gives the K10 a properly
aggressive stance while maintaining a period-appropriate
appearance.
Inside, the cab features a custom red and black bench seat, black
carpeting, a three-spoke steering wheel, a column-mounted automatic
shifter, and a floor-mounted transfer-case selector. Woodgrain trim
extends across the instrument panel and passenger-side glovebox, as
well as the door panels, complementing the Cheyenne Super
equipment. The factory-style gauge layout and bright trim retain
the original truck character while presenting in restored
condition.
An especially valuable detail is the retained factory Service Parts
Identification plate. The plate documents equipment including the
350ci V8, power steering, Turbo-Hydramatic transmission, front
locking hubs, 3.73 rear axle ratio, heavy-duty front springs, and
Cheyenne Super equipment.
With its frame-off restoration, attractive two-tone finish, 350 V8
power, automatic transmission, cold air conditioning, documented
factory equipment, and classic K10 four-wheel-drive capability,
this 1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne Super is a highly desirable vintage
pickup that is equally suited for cruising, local shows, or
inclusion in a serious Chevrolet collection.
