Welcome to the forum. Man that truck looks sweet. Wouldn't think it would be too hard to get a little better match on that hood. Minor detail. You know the guys are gonna want more pics....

again, that's really nice looking

Welcome from Central Florida also. Great color combo.

Hobbit · 11-07-2013, 07:23 PM

is this a Cheyenne seat or lower trim level did some Cheyennes have rubber floor mats.

SuperC10Tex · 11-07-2013, 07:33 PM

Welcome to the Forum!! Open up your glovebox and snap a picture of the SPID, it is blue and white attached to the inside of the glovebox....that shows all the info on your new truck. Post it here and we can give you more info!! Good looking truck!

gvw5400 · 11-07-2013, 07:51 PM

Welcome from the Colorado rocky mtns. Your truck looks good, and I agree that a better color match on the hood / bonnet would be great. Looks like a great truck to build into YOUR truck! Have fun and again Welcome. All the best, Dirk

**leddzepp** · 11-07-2013, 07:54 PM

Nice truck! You have the best color combo ever offered, lol.

Katrina/10 · 11-08-2013, 01:01 PM

Thanks, I was wondering where that was! Truck looks good.

72heritage · 11-08-2013, 01:38 PM

Welcome Hobbit,awesome find!!! Didnt know it was possible to find a truck in this condition on the Island with sea salt and all that.By the way im from Quebec.So what are your plans for it?

sublime1996525 · 11-08-2013, 01:42 PM

Looks like a good find. Welcome!

knomadd · 11-08-2013, 02:29 PM

from Texas!

According to your SPID, that is a true Cheyenne Super, but not the original seat. It says "parchment trim", assuming I read it right, the text is hard to read. That means, to me, you'd have a lot more white on the inside than just the door panels.

Nice truck though. Hard to find with only 47,000 original miles.

Mr Chevorlet · 11-08-2013, 02:34 PM

Very nice truck and welcome also.

re1 · 11-08-2013, 02:53 PM

Welcome and Nice truck !

Back in the day not all truck owners liked having fabric seats and carpet floors so maybe a previous owner swapped them out.

Hobbit · 11-09-2013, 03:30 PM

72 heritage any thing of that age on PEI would be rusted out.So I bought this truck a month ago outside Nashville Tennessee and then had it flat decked to my Uncle's cabin in Newport Tn where it sits in his garage until next spring.Not sure if i will drive it home or have it trucked to the border.I have to find some parts before i get it home.

72heritage · 11-09-2013, 04:03 PM

Ok nice. Wow this is a long trip! To bad we are so far apart cause i have tons of part at home,2 trucks. Im looking for a third one right now hehe. The two i have are very rusted and don't know if i will rebuild them.
