Just bought a 72

[Silvius]

Well, I picked it up yesterday and gave it a good bath today. I bought it from a guy who lost interest in finishing it out, although it is largely done. It is a Cheyenne Super LWB, but some of what made it a Super is off the truck. He repainted it a Ford color--Cayman Pearl (blue-green). The glove box label matches the VIN and equipment wise it is largely a Super, although there have been some cosmetic changes. He did give me all the Cheyenne trim in case I decide to go back to original someday.

I bought it because the 350's bottom end was recently re-done and it really seems to have a straight body. Factory air was a plus, as was the power steering and brakes. New glass and somewhat new seat. Cab corners were replaced too and it doesn't have much rust that I have found.

It needs the A/C hooked up, one of the front turn signal housings, rear bumper mounted, and a lot of tuning and tweaking. Brakes definitely need attention, so that will be the first order of business, although I have some wheels coming in too (nothing special, but they will look better than the 15x7 Rallys.)

My first truck in 1988 was a 1969 LWB, but it was pretty much worn out. I am glad to be in one of these again.

So, whatcha think?
