Save this 72 big block Cheyenne Super Longhorn being parted!
I hope I don't offend anyone by posting this, but from the photos it seems like too nice and rare of a truck to part out! Someone in Washington state or west coast in general make an offer on the whole truck and save it!!!

Re: Save this 72 big block Cheyenne Super Longhorn being parted!
it's a longhorn, the bed is too long and ugly. Part it out, us shortbed guys need the parts. Sorry, longhorn lovers

If he parts it out then someone can fix one of those hobby trucks by converting it to a real truck! :-)

Short beds are for girls... Longer the better.

Re: Save this 72 big block Cheyenne Super Longhorn being parted!
No such thing as "too nice" Good parts come from nice trucks. If nobody parted out nice trucks there wouldn't be anything good to buy.

Re: Save this 72 big block Cheyenne Super Longhorn being parted!
I recently bought a 70 custom 20 Longhorn with 78k miles to use parts off of to build a Swb truck but now I am having second thoughts.

I'd trade my dog (well, maybe not) for a big block short bed Sierra Grande, but I have an appreciation for serious trucks as well. By "serious" I mean fullsize bed, truck mirrors, cab lights, and so on. There's a lot to be said for the sport mirror, sport bumper, shortbed trucks but its not the epitome of style that everyone universally needs to shoot for. For me, while I'd still like to have one, having a bucket-seat short-bed truck makes for a crappy sports car. So I'd rather have a real sports car and a real truck, and of course my definition of "real" is completely personal.

Re: Save this 72 big block Cheyenne Super Longhorn being parted!
BTW, I'm only kidding. Don't want to offend anyone... I originally made that image to help decide which bed style I wanted, so I was clearly considering them all.

Re: Save this 72 big block Cheyenne Super Longhorn being parted!
A while hack someone posted a thread wanting photos of 8 lug Swb trucks. This is as close to any real trucks like that that I have ever seen. IMO, A truck like that in real life would be the "worst" of both worlds, not the best. It would ride too rough!

It does suck to see it being parted but it is his truck and thats what he wants to do with it.
