More pics. The truck has served its duty for my buddy and his family. They have enjoyed it and are ready to upgrade sons transportation. We will see if I end up with it or not. Such a nice driver!! My buddy had the engine rebuilt and the transmission, re conditioned the AC !! Added a new steering wheel. It’s always nice to see an old friend back home. I can’t get over this truck is ORIGINAL paint!! Hugger orange!

Re: 1972 Cheyenne original truck a true survivor!

Wish i could have found a truck like this when i bought mine... the whole reason i wanted one of these trucks was because my grand dad had one just like this. Alas, i ended up with a 72 blue and white in similar condition so i cant complain to much. I will always break my neck when i see an orange and white out and about though

Re: 1972 Cheyenne original truck a true survivor!

Job well done, on everything!!!
A family friend of my brothers has a twin to the orange pickup.
I didn’t know he owned it until 2 years ago, all original, too.
I ask him about it every time I see him, in case he ever wanted to part with it.

Re: 1972 Cheyenne original truck a true survivor!

Very nice truck and very nice find! I've been working on getting a hugger orange/white cheyenne super for years from a guy. He is finally thinking of a price so hopefully I can get it before it is too far gone.
