1972 swb cheyenne
 

I'd love to know what you experts think this truck is worth? I have the original motor, but it likely needs rebuilt. I also have a ton of new parts that I could include, but I'm wondering what the basic truck and original motor is worth as is. The white powder is baking soda that the previous owner poured all over.

A few more pictures.

Nice find, looks like the perfect truck to fix up.

Re: 1972 swb cheyenne
 

I agree, but you haven't seen my current collection of projects. The 67 is my dream truck (and color), so something needs to find a new home.

Sell the v dub ;)

1700-2500 like it is .

Re: 1972 swb cheyenne
 

No trucks in that condition around here for $2500 , I wish there were .

Re: 1972 swb cheyenne
 

I can see that this thread didn't turn out like I thought it would, so let's try this another way. I think this truck is worth $8,000 as is, throw a crate motor in it, clean up, and it's a $12,000 truck on ebay. I plan to keep it for a while, so I'm in no hurry to find it a new home.

That sounds like a great plan , I would like to find trucks that nice for cheap money but it aint gonna happen . Im looking at a short stepper in nowhere near that condition at $3000 and Im going for it when I can . Its a 6 cylinder 3 on the tree 70 with some rust issues so to me yours is way ahead of the one Im looking at .

Deals can still be found, but it's not as easy as it once was. I'm sure in another 20 years, the current prices will seem cheap.

Re: 1972 swb cheyenne
 

I'm not looking to sell it, just wanted to confirm what I was thinking. I paid very close to $8k for the truck. The previous owner was very aware of what he had and it's current value.

Re: 1972 swb cheyenne
 

How is the sheet metal? Any rust? I see the passenger door has been replaced as it's not a 72. Also, I've never seen a Cheyenne without the cargo light.

She has a tiny hole in the drivers rocker, but other than that she's really solid. I'm thrilled with my find, but I'm not sure what to do with my 67 now. I don't need two c10s.

Hard to get a "what's it worth" on the board these days. You are probably very close in your own valuation & maybe more to the right person.

Re: 1972 swb cheyenne
 

After being distracted by other projects most of the year, I'm finally getting some work down on this truck. The gm crate motor is almost ready to fire and I just finished the 4/6 early drop.

Re: 1972 swb cheyenne
 

You’ve been busy. Looks great.

Re: 1972 swb cheyenne
 

Good looking truck

Re: 1972 swb cheyenne
 

Wow, that truck really cleaned up nicely. I'd say you're pushing the $12k value and maybe even $15k to the right person.
