Did GM make a 1 ton Cheyenne? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

JimKshortstep4x4 · 05-11-2004, 07:28 AM

There is an add in a local flyer that has a 1 ton 72 Cheyenne flat bed listed for sale. My question is, did they make a 1 ton Cheyenne in 1972?

I'd go look... cause

they did.

**CPNE** · 05-11-2004, 08:54 AM

Heck yes! All trim levels and options were available on series 10-30. I know of a 1 ton rollback here that is a 71 Super.

Everybody needs a 1 ton flatbed, there is a secret society you can join too

Rod and Jeff, Thanks for the replies!

I will try to look at it if it is not sold. We were thinking of making a car hauler
out of it, (trucks too).

Jeff, I really like your truck, it is nice.

There is a '72 1 ton Cheyenne Super still in use as a tow truck here in town. Would guess it is original.

I have a 1972 1ton Cheyenne dually. Here is the option sticker.

Here's a 1-ton Cheyenne tow rig on Ebay (not mine).

Joesjunk,

I went to look at the truck this afternoon, (which is not too bad). It is a Cheyenne and I am curious about the buckets. The bucket seats themselves are similar to the Blazer seats. They mount to a frame, like the 67 setup and it has a console in the middle mounted to the frame. The console is not as high as a regular console and it looks factory. The seat frame sets on seat brackets similar to a van, but not like the Blazer's brackets.

I am wondering if this is a correct seat or did someone make it up.

I'm liking that Ebay tow-truck....looks really nice. C30's rock

**Canadian694x4** · 05-11-2004, 09:56 PM

Jim did you get pics?

GM72K10 · 05-11-2004, 10:04 PM

Ebay truck
The VIN# is CCE142S201288
Don't think that's the "correct" serial number for a one ton.

687980chevy · 05-12-2004, 02:32 AM

I think your right about the serial# Here is mine it's a 1980 C-30 but I like em all!

Jim, sent you a PM. I don't have the truck here right now or I would get you a pic of the interior.

**Joesjunk** · 05-12-2004, 01:57 PM

I forgot I had this truck here. Here is what the factory 69-72 buckets look like. (Of course with out the "cloth" redo!)

JimKshortstep4x4 · 05-12-2004, 08:34 PM

Joe,

Thanks for posting the picture. I believe that after hearing from you the seats are from a 67. If anyone is interested in the truck I will check to see if it is still available. I don't have pics but it is a real decent truck. It has a 72 small block 350 engine in it, (glove box lists a 400). It has a TH 400 in it .

The flat bed is really nice. It is a dump bed but the does not work. The cab is real decent, (AC), fenders and hood are good.
