This is the sort of two-tone offered in 1969-1970. So at the least this truck has been repainted. And the woodgrain on the glovebox is just something that someone added later on, and is definitely not a Cheyenne glovebox. I am sure others can chime in on this subject. I am not trying to beat the truck up but if you are considering a plane flight I would first look at this truck with knowledgeable eyes from a distance.
