Both trucks are awesome.Who wouldn`t want this "beauty and the Beast" combo?The best of the best,a first year beast,short and simple and a final year high option beauty with plenty of "GO".The`67 is one bad stepper and lots of great work in it.Got patina?I wouldn`t touch the appearance at all.The`72 CheyenneSuper is a perfect example of the year.I can`t say I`ve ever seen an olive interior in an ochre truck.Doesn`t matter at this point if anyone likes that or not.It`s original and unique.Just shows you could get what you want back then.Set`s it off in it`s own way!
Very nice pair.If life was a poker game,you`d beat most hands out there.
When I bought the 72, I was super reluctant (didn't know any better) about the color combo. My first impression wasn't good, but then I saw it was a big block with lots of options and quickly changed my mind. The factory 402 had 105,000 miles and lasted exactly 2 weeks when the oil pump pick up fell off of it. Perfect excuse to build the 468 it has now. Thanks for the compliments guys.
