How rare is a three on the tree in a 72 Cheyenne Super?
I've seen posts saying "a 3 on the tree is rare in a Cheyenne Super" and "Why is it so hard to find a C10 with a manual transmission?"
So is there any way to find out how many 72 Cheyenne Supers came with a 3 on the tree?

Re: How rare is a three on the tree in a 72 Cheyenne Super?
Those records dont exist from GM. I would say its highly unusual to order the top trim package and no transmission option. Ive seen a few over the years. I definitely dont think it adds value, most likely detracts value instead

Re: How rare is a three on the tree in a 72 Cheyenne Super?
No numbers on optioned, as mentioned. But it's safe to say that is an uncommon combination. Automatics had been in trucks a while, with the TH350/400s around a good handful, so people had "warmed up" to the idea. So, the trend was shifting to a mostly automatic America. There still were those who didn't feel such options belonged in trucks, and those are most likely the owners who would want such a truck. Many felt power steering and power brakes had no place on a truck, as well.
