Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

A "Super" is what the "Cheyenne Super" is referred to as. The Super consists of the Cheyenne package, plus woodgrain on the dash, a houndstooth cloth seat, and a SUPER emblem below the Cheyenne fender emblems.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

actually, the woodgrain is on the cheyenne package and in the super... the super adds a bit of bright work on the tailgate latch(fleet side only) upper and lower trim (again, fleet side bed only) full guages (tach still optional) and cloth seats.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

didn't they also have a chrome tailgate handel?

Didn`t only the`72 CheyenneSupers have the stainless tailgate latch cover?Only CheyenneSupers had woodgrain dash pieces.The CheyenneSuper included upper side moulding on solid paint trucks.All others only had it with deluxe two-tone.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

Cheyenne/ Cheyenne Super started in 71 even though it will still be listed sometimes as a CST on the option sheet. Woodgrain is only on the doorpanels on the Cheyenne. I (think) the 71 Cheyenne Super had a chromed handle and the 72 had the cover.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

we just pulled a super in to the yard that didn't even have ac

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

Yup,as mentioned in post #3.
The definition of a Super Truck:

When planet Cheyenne reached it`s peril,one of their young was sent to earth to save us from the same doom brought about by evil and corruption.
This youth grew up and displayed super natural powers.Aside from outlasting Fords and Dodges while looking hanesome,it could leap tall buildings with a single bound,had x-ray vision,and the stregth of 10 trucks.
LOOK!!...It`s a bird,it`s a plane,no....IT`S SUPERTRUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't forget about the headliner trim ring. That is about the best give away that a truck is a cheyenne super. my black one had no power brakes, no a.c., but did have wood grain and pwr steering, gauges, but no tach. The seat was vinyl scroll, but I don't know if it was original with a cloth seat.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

I double checked about the woodgrain on the dash... you're right. Only on the super.
The headliner trim was installed on all CST (mid 69 and up) or cheyenne or super trucks.
Those 3 options (actually only 2 options if you go by RPO codes) was the ONLY way to get a factory headliner... and always with trim.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

You could get the regular cheyenne as a solid with the upper chrome but it was listed as option- had a blue 72 with upper chrome. Super package was introduced in April 71 and included houndstooth interior (cloth seats bench only- buckets had vinyl) full wheel covers, bright tailgate latch, wood grained interior treatment, upper and lower trim and special badges (super) other than that anything else was up for grabs- people have the misconception that all had ac, tilt, tach and big block- many were actually small block trucks and have magically transformed into the mythical big block all original truck.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

and the acc guages too.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

The full wheel covers were an option even on the supers.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

but DID come with chrome hub caps though.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

with the exception of the custom camper, all the option packages were mostly just trim stuff.
I saw an inline 250, 3 speed on the column 72 cheyenne super for sale here in town a few years ago. manual steering, radio delete, no A/C... pretty much a stripper with trim.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

My '56 Bel Air came with absolutely no options except Bel Air trim. No radio, standard heater (as opposed to deluxe heater), no pwr brakes, no pwr steering, straight six with 3 on the tree, nothing extra. Back then it was all about the trim options, not the powertrain and extras.

My 69 has headliner but my 72 cst dlx does not?

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

A Custom/10 Deluxe and a CST/10 are two different packages.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

A stripper with trim.Hmmm..................(picture Homer Simpson with a donut)

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

custom delux is bottom of the line in 72, lowest package avalible. only CST/Cheyenne/cheyenne supers had them


*EDIT* I think I see the part that has you a little confused, you called it a cst dlx... it's a custom delux... CST is Custom Sport Truck. Which that option ended in the truck line with the 70 model anyways.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

[QUOTE=Longhorn Man;2354295]custom delux is bottom of the line in 72, lowest package avalible.

In 72, custom was the lowest package available I think.

Re: Please define what is a SUPER trucK?
 

We should just list all the models through the years to end the jumbledness.It`s even got Long Manhorn mixed up:lol:.
CustomDeluxe started in`71 as the mid-grade and a forth level was added...CheyenneSuper.Custom became the base in`71 when C/10(etc)was dropped.
See how I do...
67-70:C/10,Custom/10,CST/10...(yeah yeah,CustomCamper.CustomCamper/10 name plate added in`69 as an option)
71/72:Custom/10,CustomDeluxe/10,Cheyenne/10,CheyenneSuper/10,and CheyenneSuperDuper/100...(yeah yeah,Highlander promotion package on CustomDeluxe late`72)
