The floorand head board are 1/8" held in place by the stock holes around the edges but I replaced all the carriage bolts with polished stainless bolts . I polished each one because they didn't carry polished carriage bolts.
The sides and tailgate are 1/16" held in place with tiny SS sheet metal screws

Bob, what air conditioning system did you use? also looks like your firewall has some sort of adapter for the hose/line installation to cover the existing holes in the firewall. most I see are flat and have had filler panels welded in and smoothed.

the whole firewall was recovered in a new piece of sheetmetal
it's vintage air ,those bulk head fittings used to come with the kit this is an older build

Does this Diamond Plate go right over the old floor? Is it one piece?

Heres my baby. I'm 16 and this is my first car. Me and my dad found it with a blown motor for real cheap and couldn't resist. We bought it and swapped the blown motor with a stock 350. Original Arizona truck but the previous owner before me drove down to Boise, Idaho to pick it up and brought it back to Winnipeg. Just waiting for the snow to melt before i can drive it again!

I am a new member, great site. I have spent about six hours browsing pictures and researching VIN and option codes. I have a 1972 Cheyenne(pictures attached) and have just bought a '72 Blazer. The previous owner of the Cheyenne replaced the bumpers, mirrors, a few emblems and the headliner. I replaced the instrument bezel and put the matching woodgrain decals on the glove box door and ashtray. I know these are not original to the non-super Cheyenne, but I like the look. The truck was repainted and the seat was recovered sometime in the '80s. I think the bed rails were added as well. The truck is air conditioned and has been converted to the newer refrigerant. I am interested in buying new reproductions of the original full wheel covers, could someone suggest a source?

Welcome to the board! That is a very nice looking truck, very nice. As far as the wheel covers go you will have find some clean used or NOS, as they are not being reproduced.

I know that truck. I have seen it here in Mountain Home, AR at several local shows. Very nice pickup, and the long step bed is unusual, but very cool.

[Palf70Step]

Very nice longstep
