What are your thoughts on 3rd generations, specifically a 1976 Chevy Sport

[callmeammo]

My mother in laws neighbor has a 1976 Chevy Sport for sale (stepside, all black, no longer has the markings but otherwise mostly original and in great condition) I'm posting in this forum becuase she told me it was a 1972 and I've been combing through this site the past couple of weeks or so getting my hopes up. I had thought I remebered it having something like houndstooth seats and was really getting excited that it could be a Cheyenne Super SWB stepside.

My question is, are the 3rd gens cool/collectible or are they just another old truck? Its weird how different I feel about the two considering how relatively similar they look. Even my wife was dissapointed.
