Survivor Project Truck: 1972 Super Cheyenne 20
Here's my dad's latest project truck its a 1972 Super Cheyenne 3/4 ton was originally a factory big block/turbo 400 truck but in 2001 it had an engine fire and the engine was removed. The truck has been sitting ever since. The SPID says California Emissions so I would guess that is where it was from and someone drove it up here to Alaska in the late 90's (1999?). Anyways its almost totally rust free and the paint is baked off of it from the sun. Has sort of a patina look right now.
![]() The grill started melting from the fire... ![]() Hood is also warped ![]() Trim piece for the door is inside ![]() The rockers where protected with some giant diamond plate running boards that I removed. ![]() Floor board on the drivers side front corner has a small hole ![]() Someone swapped the cluster at some point I think shouldn't it be woodgrain and possibly have a tach in the super cheyenne model? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The dash also got some fire damage ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Plan is to do a complete restoration and place the restored body onto a perfectly sandblasted and painted 4x4 3/4 ton 1972 frame we have already completed with a 700r4 mated to a 205 transfer case since this truck is missing the big block, and transmission and other parts.
