1972 Chevrolet C-10 Cheyenne Super Description
Beautiful paint, big block power, and a custom A/C interior headline this 1972 Chevrolet C10 Cheyenne Super. But as you keep digging into all the details you'll keep seeing all the investments that make this you dream classic pickup.
Two-tone has always been a distinctive style on vintage pickups. But the way this one radiates in the sunlight instantly signals you have a truck of distinction. It also helps that the timeless red and white combo is part of a modern clearcoat application that loves to radiate in the sunlight. The paint was applied about 8 years ago, but the whole truck received a frame-off restoration in 2015. It also helps that you have mirror-like chrome bumpers and upgraded 18-inch Ridler wheels to add to this full shining package. But there's more here than just upgrades. This there was a nice investment in vintage style, too. You see this attention to detail along the sides. Not only does the premium Cheyenne Super wood-like trim looks bright and distinctive, but it appears like an almost unbroken line on this quality body. And this vintage premium design touch continues on the tailgate, too. But if it's real wood you want, just look at all that glossy lumber in the truck bed.
The interior follows the same theme of a premium presentation that never loses its vintage appeal. For example, not only does the exterior red return inside, but also the classic wood applique inserts of the exterior trim are continued on the inserts for door panels and dash. It creates a fresh and uniform look inside and out. All of this goes with the upgraded wood-rimmed steering wheel. The dash has the classic look, and so you may have to do a double-take to spot handy modern upgrades like the R134a air conditioning and the retro-style AM/FM digital tuner with iPod input. While the full gauge package with tach gets you ready for something special under the hood, we really know you already got the performance tingle from the moment you spotted the seat with the sporty houndstooth cloth inserts.
While the interior and exterior are terrific, the engine bay may just win awards all on its own. The smooth inner fenders and firewall funnel all your attention to the big block in the middle. A tidy setup and plenty of polished components tell you that appearance was on their mind when they investmented in the motor. There's also a ton of substance behind the style. This 427 cubic-inch V8 has a large Holley double-pumper 780 CFM four-barrel carburetor, aluminum intake, and Hooker headers that add even more power while contributing to the rumble of the dual exhaust. Don't just listen to the thunder of those pipes; follow its path in the undercarriage photos. There you'll see how fresh the suspension looks from the quality restoration. Plus, there's a TH400 three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes w/discs up front for easy driving. And don't forget that '72 was the final year for the sought-after trailing arm rear suspension!
This is an awesome-looking truck with an awesome amount of power. And you get to enjoy it all from A/C comfort. So don't let your ideal C10 slip away. Call now!
