72 Cheyenne Super RCSB -- Buying / Pricing Help

[Mapearso]

Hello Guys,

Hoping for a little buying/pricing help. I am new to the 67-72 section but not new to the forum as I have had my 89 Silverado RCSB 2WD for 25 years now ( pics here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...449586&page=28 )

So... I came across an unrestored / unmolested 72 Cheyenne Super RCSB 2WD. I checked out the SPID -- This truck came loaded -- big block, A/C, PS, PB, auto, tilt, tach, posi. It was originally blue and white with a white bench interior and still wears most of the original paint, tho it was a southwest / desert truck so the paint has some serious "patina". It is also rust-free. It has been sitting for ??? Interior is shot, wood bed has disintegrated. Not running / no motor. (Sorry no pics, my phone just died)

Seller knows what he has and is firm at $6K. Seems high... I know it's gonna need a lot, but also I know this is a top-dollar truck when done

Any thoughts on price???
Many thanks!

No motor means no Super anymore in my book....got pictures?

Sounds like a $1500 builder to me.

6 grand lol way to much just be patient the right one will come along

If truly rust free I would say more like 4000-4500 max.
just my .02

What is RCSB? I'm assuming SB is short bed.

6K sounds a bit high.....and 'unmolested' but without a motor? that doesn't add up for me description wise.
I'd would agree with some of the above pricing starting in the $3500-$4000k range....maybe.
Again tho'....no pics, no accurate guesses.
A truck left sitting for years without a motor can need $15,000 of work in a heartbeat...probably more unless you have already have a motor and are very handy at bodywork and paint. For that money ($15k-18k) and zero labor...you can find another super nice shortbed in the $15k-18K range all day long.
Just my two bits tho'.
Keep us posted on it

I think rcsb is regular cab short bed. I would also agree that 6 grand is ridiculous. I saw a loaded Cheyenne super in Oregon the other day, it was a long bed and pretty beat, but was a runner with the original paint and decent body for around 1500 if I recall. Patience is the name of the game.

6k for a truck with no engine... I bought my super for 1500.00 (with an engine, original one at that) keep looking. You'll find a better one

Just a thought here.. No matter what you pay for that truck,( and 6000 is way to high ) for the asking price you will never get it to the level of this attached Cheyenne Super in the for sale section now.

RCSB is modern truck talk. In the pre-73 GM Truck world they are just "cabs". That money world be acceptable if it had the motor. Kinda high w/o. It can still be unmolested if just missing the motor. Unmolested relates to being unaltered from original. An original motor can be slipped back on and there ya go
