1972 Chevrolet C10

This wasn\'t the typical work truck; it came loaded from the factory! It\'s the top of the line Cheyenne Super trim in and out and also came with air conditioning, power steering, power disc brakes, auto trans and it\'s a short bed! Documented by its original glove box sticker. This one has lived a clean life, it\'s a survivor that\'s been restored as needed. Rust free Alabama truck was owned by the same family it\'s entire life! Admired for its timeless design, robust performance, and versatility, making it a cherished classic truck among enthusiasts. The 1972 model year is particularly popular among collectors due to it being the last year of production for this body style. Unusual amount of luxury anybody packed into a 1972 pickup!

EXTERIOR: A short bed loaded up with top of the line trim! This truck is said to be repainted only once and looks marvelous in its factory blue color. The paint was applied with great attention to detail and laid out evenly. It was then polished to a consistent and reflective finish. All the body panels are nicely aligned with good gaps, doors still shut like new. Decked out with chrome bumpers, grill, and deluxe moldings with woodgrain inserts. It also has dual mirrors, original antenna, and a cargo light. The trim is looking good, shiny, and straight. The doors close like a new vehicle. The windshield and rear glass are crystal clear; rubber seals are soft. It is rolling on factory style 15 inch rally wheels with chrome rings. They are wrapped in like new Michelin tires that are size 235/75R15. No disappointments at all with this exterior!

INTERIOR: The deluxe interior is also decked out including woodgrain trim, houndstooth upholstery, deluxe wheel, and a headliner. It appears to be mostly original and well cared for. Unabused, just the right amount of patina. The original sticker listing the options is still on the inside of the glovebox. Down on the floor the carpet was replaced and protected with a 1 piece floor mat. It still has its blue seatbelts. The metal still has nice blue paint. Door panels are great originals, houndstooth seats look good too. The dash area is great original condition, especially the steering wheel. Overhead is the optional headliner and the visors, both in excellent shape. Also, a working interior light. The original radio is still in place along with the addition of an 8-track player complete with a Johnny Cash tape!

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It\'s decked out under this hood too! Rare factory air conditioning, power steering and power brakes! It\'s all clean, proper, and stock. At the heart of it is it\'s original 350 motor with a 4 barrel carb. Stock manifolds, valve covers, air cleaner, even the heat riser tube! The a/c works, carb looks restored, alternator still has a sticker on it, squirters are hooked up. The underside of the hood and firewall are painted body color and the fender wells have been neatly painted satin black. What a nice looking engine compartment we have here!

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Very desirable short bed pickup, it looks better and fits in the garage. The inside of the bed looks like the family used it to haul cotton balls, it\'s straight! Inside and the back of the tailgate are painted body color and have the same finish as the exterior. The tailgate functions like it should.

UNDERSIDE: Looks like clean, rust free, original metal! The underside has received a thorough detail and looks great. It has also been maintained as needed and is currently in fantastic condition. The front steering and suspension components look fresh and have been neatly painted satin black. Rear suspension also looks really good with fresh black paint and upgraded coilover shocks. It is equipped with front power disc brakes and rear drums, e-brake is hooked up. The full dual exhaust system has been totally replaced and has Flowmaster mufflers and shiny polished stainless tips that exit under the rear bumper. Looking up at the motor I see fresh Chevy orange and a fresh starter. The Turbo 350 automatic transmission has been serviced and looks clean. It has its original dated 12 bolt rear end that also has been freshened up with black paint.

SERVICE: Our team of professional mechanics has completed a thorough inspection of this truck and serviced the a/c system: replaced the blower motor, compressor, POA valve and charged the system. We also lubed the window tracks, serviced the trans with a filter kit and new fluid, installed a manifold gasket and exhaust collector gaskets.

You can find shortbeds with all the goodies custom added, if you want factory stock loaded with all the goodies it becomes much more difficult. Unlike most pickup trucks this one family owned survivor has been pampered its entire life! It has been nicely repainted, painstakingly maintained, and looks absolutely fantastic. It\'s begging to be back on the road where it belongs, turning heads and getting compliments. Ch
