Really tough to give a value without pictures. What you have described is a $2,000 - $6,000 truck IMO.
Check the numbers, do they all add up? Frame VIN matches the VIN plate? SPID looks original and has the options you describe on it?
Is the paint original? If not, is the new(er) paint hiding anything?

More importantly, what are you looking for? A truck to completely customize? If so, the numbers may not matter.

it all matches originaly orange but painted maroon thanks

rust is the thing that takes so much time and $$ to fix

[Grumpy old man]

Look for frame rot or snow plow use /bent frame .What do they want for it ?

Looks good in the pics, but you don't say whether it runs and drives. With a flat tire, maybe it doesn't drive too well! A running and driving truck will make a huge difference on price.

As others have said, rust/rot can make or break it, and it really depends on what the intended use is. Resto or just drive it. If resto in planned, look for the best rust-free body you can afford. If rust/rot is visible, assume it's far worse underneath.

Wow that would be the most desirable 72 4wd if its original. Cheyenne super short boxes are few and far between

I'm assuming since you say it was orange that you've got what appears to originally have been a hugger Cheyenne Super k/10 with tach tilt etc. very nice find. By the pics the rockers are still there and I only see a little bit of rust in the wheel arch on the drivers bed side. Obviously pics only tell half the rust/rot story, but that looks to be a very nice find to me. Id buy it if I could.

Very desire able truck for sure.

But the cancer that I can see in the pictures catches my eye as to what lies unseen?

Good luck!

x 2 the supers are not too common in a 4x4

[71swb4x4]

That thing looks like it could be really rusty. But, maybe the tailgate and wheel arch are truly the only rusty places???? You will need to check the body over real well.
As others have said, you don't see many 4x4 SWB Cheyenne Supers. Can you post a picture of the SPID? My rust tolerance would increase greatly if that's a true Cheyenne Super.

id say it all depends on how bad the rust is if its not bad id say 4-5k but if panels need replaced id say around 3k

[K30cummins]

runs just been sitting for a while the tires are junk
rust really isn't that bad though been under and the cab mounts need some attention but not horrible

[71swb4x4]

Post a picture of the SPID, let's see what it really is. You might have a heck of a truck on your hands.

No rear cargo light = not an original Cheyenne cab let alone a super

As stated, SPID pics and one of the LH pillar VIN tag would help.

[SS Tim]

Look very carefully at what it was and its current condition. Not convinced it is a true Cheyenne Super from the provided pictures.
