My dad bought a 72 custom deluxe 10 lwb fleet new that was also dark green with a white top, 307 auto, ps pb coil rear no Ac. It was his daily driver but also pulled our bass boat on weekends. In 77 or so one of my older brothers talked him into trading it on a 73 or 74 black with red interior Cheyenne super 10 with a 454 auto loaded, leaf rear. It ran like he'll but obviously drank gas and was not as good of a truck overall as the 72 and didn't ride as well. I will see if I can find photos next time I go back home.
