Can't agree more!
Like leddzepp said this is a nice truck but the fact remains the SPID is incorrect in many ways. As such the truck, as a whole comes into question. Since the seller is representing the truck as original an examination is called for.
The SPID is of course the wrong type, format and font.
There was once, clearly, a cover sheet with the rounded corners.
The interior trim code and description conflict the truck as currently equipped.
Bucket seats were not offered with cloth inserts.
Given that the A50 is out of order would indicate bucket seats were added.
The positraction option is also out of order and not even close to the correct 72 RPO code.
The final biggie is the paint, unfortunately the paint code is for a Dark Blue and White truck in the conventional two-tone (white roof only). Any factory deluxe two-tone (white between the side moldings) will have a paint code starting 4XX. For "original paint" there seems to be a big misrepresentation.
The remainder of the options could be original to the truck and it may very well be an original Cheyenne Super just not this dressy.
The rear bumper is clearly added, it would be on the SPID from the factory.
The rally wheels and lowerering of course are a modification and mentioned only to note being not original as is the replacement steering wheel.
To touch on earlier comments.
The tailgate handle cover is often missing from Supers and the "disc brakes" emblem on the tailgate is a 71 only feature.
If someone buys this truck I would encourage a close personal inspection. It would certainly make a very nice driver and one to be proud of. With some corrections it would present even better. But without a real, original, SPID and/or documentation this is not the "Ultimate SWB Cheyenne Super" to most people.
