Cheyenne Super is a trim option!

"...all the makings of a super truck with tach, tilt, a/c..."
These are all options independent of trim and have no bearing other than a loaded up truck is more likely to be a Cheyenne or a Super than a rebadged stripper.

"Has all the super badges(fender,glove box, wood grain door panel inserts..."
The Super badge was added below the stock Cheyenne badge and woodgrain door trim was included at the Cheyenne trim level too.
Does it have the glove box chrome/wodgrained insert? Does it have the woodgrained cluster bezel? Does it have a headliner and cargo lamp? Does it have holes for the gas tank cover carpet?

"...off course the tack and tilt are long gone."
Do you know that it had a tach or tilt as factory? Again these could be found at any trim level too.

"...does not having the SPID keep the value down for resale..."
If you can't document it as a Super then it is suspect. It's resale value is dependent on the buyer. As long as people will spend money for fakes there is a market.

As a K20 it it is far more likely to be a Cheyenne than a Super but certainly possible. A build sheet would be a "find" in this case, is it a "Z" truck?
If you want I can look at what you have as far as pictures or links and give you my opinion. PM your email.
