Anybody willing to go look at this for me please? I’m tempted to fly out for it. I noticed the glove box had a bubble in it and I doubt it’s original miles but still looks nice and what I’m looking for. Just seeing if anyone is local

I do not want to discourage you but I would not count on that mileage to be original. There are so many things about this truck that scream "what you are seeing is not original". I doubt that if the motor had only 40k original miles that anyone would have added an aftermarket intake manifold. And in 1971 they two-tone paint was not offered in this combination. 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.
