real "Factory" Black 71-72 Cheyenne Longbed 1/2 ton 4x4

I have been into these trucks for over 20 years and I have never seen a "real" Black 71-72 Cheyenne longbed 1/2 ton 4x4. I would really like to see one whether it's for sale or not. I have seen 2wd short and longbeds as well as shortbed 4x4's.

Anyone ever owned one or know of a real one??

Thanks,
Ray

My friend has a 72 super 4x4 in black with clearance lights, buckets, etc all on the spid.I took a bunch of pics before we disassembled to restore.I will see if I can get a few from him .It has been disassembled for about 8 years and sitting in his shop in pieces.

The only 72 4x4 that Bill Athey has I believe is the Orange/White one. He has some nice parts and I told him he should build that truck

67/72 Junkie, that will be a nice truck your friend has when it's done.


tkeduk8r, thats a rare truck you have too. I believe years back I recall seeing a factory Black longbed 70.

No Big-block 4x4s, so the color and other details don't matter.

Big block 4x4s didn't happen until the 73-87 generation.

Sure David, I have a thing for Black trucks. I haven't ran across many over the years. Is this the one you are restoring? I would love to see a 1/2 ton longbed 4x4
