One Owner '72 Super at a show w/ salesman!

[LEEVON]

I went down to a local show this weekend at an event called Frisco Festival here in Rogers, AR. There was a nice '72 Cheyenne Super longbed in my favorite blue/white so of course I had to chat with the owner.

He bought the truck new in '72 about one block from where we were standing at a dealership that is long since closed. He used it on the farm, hauled livestock, hay, bricks, and whatever in the bed. In '87 he completely restored it using NOS GM parts and sent the drivetrain to Detroit to be remanufactured by GM. He's driven it 11,000 miles since then.

Cool story, but then he mentioned that the salesman had just walked by and saw his name on the bill of sale which is framed under the hood. They chatted for awhile and he left right before I got there...! I wish I could have gotten a picture of those two for the Owner (that's him on the left). Pretty cool, huh?
