Saw this on the local Albany, NY craigslist

If anyone was interested it looks like a decent rig, maybe a bit on the expensive side though

I saw that in Atlanta on craigslist... looks like a decent truck

SS Tim · 05-12-2013, 08:28 PM

Actually the guy is in Northern Calfornia.

Big Block · 05-12-2013, 08:36 PM

Great looking orginal truck. Love to own it. Can't buy them all.

**HeloCrewChief** · 05-12-2013, 11:28 PM

I think he is in Colfax. This thing has been for sale for about 8 months and has gone up thousands since first posted. Not sure the logic in raising the price.

SS Tim · 05-13-2013, 12:01 AM

He has had a lot of things. There was a G30 4x4 ambulance van I wanted so bad...
He like many is probably doing little fix ups and also like many thinks his time and money adds 2 to 3x what he puts into it.

SCHRUMGMC · 05-13-2013, 04:23 AM

Guy must be thinking that he is sitting on a Gold mine

**special-K** · 05-13-2013, 09:08 AM

That guy's sitting on a gold mine. That looks like a great survivor with period equipment to boot! I'd pay that for it. I'd make an offer a bit lower,first,of course.

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-13-2013, 11:25 AM

I just want the warn winch bumper, I've been lookin' but haven't found one yet! They used to be like belly buttons where did they all go?

truckster · 05-13-2013, 12:04 PM

That's way more than I'd pay for it. But that doesn't mean someone's not willing to pay that.

70jimmy · 05-13-2013, 01:08 PM

I have that exact bumper if anyone is interested

Mint68 · 05-13-2013, 02:22 PM

I don't think you run across a 72 Cheyenne swb 4x4 with ac too often, especially one that hasn't been molested. I think there is quite a bit of value there, you know you're getting what it appears to be, not an assembled truck full of bondo and covered in cheap paint.

**Already Gone** · 05-13-2013, 10:36 PM

Seeing it is a Cheyenne with A/C does anyone think the 4 speed manual restricts the market and hurts the value of the truck. Personaly I think he'd have more luck at the price he is asking if the truck were automatic.

72 tigger · 05-13-2013, 10:45 PM

I feel pretty good about the 72 Cheyenne super 4x4 lwb I bought in TX a few years ago for $2500 - wasn't sure if I over paid at the time but I guess not. I know it's not a shorty but it does have factory air,buckets,tilt & AM/FM. It's a unmolested farm truck that needs a complete restoration- I'm collecting parts now.

Why would a Manual hurt the price ??

**special-K** · 05-14-2013, 08:01 AM

I think a 4spd in a higher end truck sets it off as unique and desirable. Figure most Cheyennes were automatic,so a manual is more rare and makes a mix of tough with comfort and style. I have personally ordered fully loaded trucks with manual transmission and people are always surprised to see that stick shift. When going to sell them that was a plus. There are people who can only drive an automatic,but they aren't real car people,cuz if they were truly interested they'd learn how to drive
