72 Cheyenne super tailgate handle cover

**70cst** · 05-02-2011, 08:50 PM

WOW! You are good! That didn't take long. Ok question...was this a 72 Cheyenne super tailgate handle cover a factory or dealer option? Was this part of a trim package? I have never seen one before. Just courious...

**too much stuff** · 05-02-2011, 08:53 PM

72 super is correct. I believe it was a factory piece. I have seen them on cheyennes and supers. (sierras and grandes) I think the 71s had an actual chrome handle...

**72 Super** · 05-02-2011, 08:54 PM

LOL It was a factory item used on all 72 Supers and Sierra Grande's. Can I have it

Eric, you are correct 71's had an actual chrome handle.

i remember when Mike got the part and I told him it was a factory piece.
He stabbed me in the head for trying to teach him something.

Got anything challenging? That was too easy

...Yes,factory '72-only. I have an N.O.S. chrome '71 handle. It's one of the more coveted parts in my collection. There are reproduced '72 covers out there,so beware.

I am pretty sure 72 was the only year that had that piece.
