Details

This real 1972 Chevrolet C10 Super Cheyenne pickup is a great example of a rare classic truck. As the original body tag indicates this truck was born with the following options: air conditioning, front stabilizer bar, power front disc brakes, power steering, roof mounted marker lights, chrome rear bumper, Frost White and Mariner Blue exterior paint, tinted glass, front and rear shock abs, heavy-duty front springs, a 350ci V8 engine, full wheel covers, AM pushbutton radio, and the Super Cheyenne equipment package. This truck was purchased by its previous owner in 2006 from a dealer in Virginia who purchased it from the original owner who lived in North Carolina. He enjoyed this rust-free truck for six years before sending it to a professional restorer in Portland, CT for a meticulous frame-off nut-and-bolt restoration. Photos of the entire restoration are included on multiple CDs. The sheet metal is all original and the body is very straight with great gaps throughout. The truck sports its original color combination of Frost White and Mariner Blue paint which is high-quality and shines beautifully. It has all-new glass throughout including the rear sliding window. Everything on the exterior is new and the chrome bed rails with lights look great. The truck sits on new Rally wheels with Cooper tires and it has a matching spare. The inside bed is painted and has a rubber mat for protection. The exterior is complemented with an all-new interior that is the rare original color of houndstooth patterned blue. The wood trim matches the exterior wood trim. It's equipped with an Alpine stereo system, factory air conditioning, and power steering. The engine compartment is nicely detailed and home to the original matching-numbers 350ci V8 engine which was completely rebuilt with a mild cam and new-style 4-barrel Quadra-Jet carburetor and breathes through a dual exhaust system which sounds great. The engine is coupled to a 3-speed column shift manual transmission. The undercarriage is nicely detailed throughout and the frame was refinished when the body was off. Everything else underneath such as the suspension, braking system and fuel tank was restored or replaced. Some extras are included such as owner's manuals, service manual, receipts, restoration photos, paint and license plate frames.
