Richard, that ochre Longhorn has always been one of my favorites on here. What a cool truck - Cheyenne Super C30 Longhorn with buckets, AM/FM, big block, tach posi... Wow.

I did manage to find a picture of the orange/white one from the day I brought it home. It had cheyenne 30 badges on the fenders but the title decoded to a 20

Another real nice one Richard. That camper shell is awesome - very few of the Longhorn-length toppers just lying around these days. Thanks for sharing.

I need to do something with it soon. The outer shell is in great shape but the wooden inner structure needs rebuild.

Re: Post a real Cheyenne Super only (aka the defiinitive Cheyenne Super thread)!
Curious as to the exterior mirrors on this truck, as are not part of the Cheyenne Super Package. They must be optional but aren't showing on the spid and certainly look like they are original to the truck. Is that your truck Eric ?

Re: Post a real Cheyenne Super only (aka the defiinitive Cheyenne Super thread)!
This truck would have had the standard “sport” mirrors (no mirror option is listed) The ones on it have been added

Re: Post a real Cheyenne Super only (aka the defiinitive Cheyenne Super thread)!
Here is my 72 CS “The Beave”. (Oregon State colors 😀.) The prior owner painted it orange and white. Originally green and white. You can see the original colors where the paint is pealing. . . .
Originally sold in Phoenix, spent time in Los Angeles. I have the warranty card. The original owner was a pilot, still has a window sticker. I bought it in Oregon about 15 years ago. It’s fairly original. The engine was replaced, I can see where someone bolted in a roll bar in the bed (probably one of those cheap chrome ones) and it has “Hickey Enterprises” front and rear diff covers. Bonus!!! The front differential looks to be from a square body, has the integrated stabilizer bracket welded to the diff. It don’t think Chevy did that until 73. The guy I bought from said there was a suspension lift on it, he returned it back to stock. The rockers and cab corners look original but are in need of some attention. The interior is green with brown carpet. The person I bought it from said the carpet is original to the truck. Another interesting aspect is where the paint is pealing from the upper cab it looks like original green underneath instead of white. Who knows. The inside of the box is still green, what’s left of the paint. Someone must had one of those small “cranes” bolted in the right rear corner. Four holes and a bend from too much weight. Most everything is worn out but after sitting for months it always fires after about cranking it 20-25 seconds with a lot of blue smoke from the leaky valve guided. It clears after 30 seconds or so! As you can see I use it to pull my dirt bikes. It never complains. . .

There’s that truck I’ve been waiting to see, as well as the rest of the gang from the show. Very very nice.

I don't have a "real Cheyenne Super" (wrong year for it), but you can post pics of orange and white trucks anytime you want! When I worked at the Chevy dealers, I called that paint scheme "creamsicle", after the ice cream.

Re: Post a real Cheyenne Super only (aka the defiinitive Cheyenne Super thread)!
I was checking this truck out
Looks legit What stuck out to me was the Below eyeline mirrors In WHITE Spid code says D29 Is that the correct code for below eyeline in white ? I didn’t even know a super could come with white mirrors All other Supers I’ve had, listed DG4 Thought’s ? |

Re: Post a real Cheyenne Super only (aka the defiinitive Cheyenne Super thread)!
Eric, those are squarebody mirror heads, so not original to the truck.
But, to your question, D29 on the SPID you posted is indeed for white Below Eyeline mirrors (and DG4 is for stainless - but both were options on any trim level) - so a po made an attempt at originality, just with the wrong era mirror heads. Sport mirrors were standard, so whichever mirror was "optioned" - that's what they got. The truck you posted above would have had white BELs from the factory. I've had one Cheyenne with white BELs (below) - I agree they aren't very common on Supers (or any non-base trim level, for that matter), most folks opted for the DG4s.
