In my book less is more when it comes to chrome and two-tone paint. While the clear on the truck above (#101) is hard to take as a purist, it does look nice.

Though not within my original thread parameters, this original paint Black/Black Custom 20 has "character". While I appreciate dressy optioned trucks this style was very much the norm.

tim, I think you remember this one , and its a super step side , in my eyes the ultimate truck

C20 Custom Deluxe in 521 - solid white (sorry, not a Cheyenne or CST, but it's gonna have to do). Nice paint. Transplanted 454. On ebay at the moment.

That SPID is in pristine condition considering the condition of the remainder of the truck.

I agree, i think the hazy lamination on it though makes me not question it. Although mine is 44 years old and clear as day.

70 CST/20 Longhorn in Hugger Orange with light gold/ivory trim.

Dad's72 · 09-19-2016, 09:54 PM

This may be a dumb question but what is the quick answer of the difference between the C10, C20, ect? I have a Cheyenne Super that was given to me by my father. I am thinking of painting it white and just put the botton wood trim back on. Dtopped 4/6 with rallys. Peanut butter interior.
I think it will look sweet. Just wondering if I'm not doing the year or model incorrect by not adding the top trim back on?

**jocko** · 09-19-2016, 10:04 PM

Dad's - you'll probably get a better answer than this by googling on this site in the upper right corner (i.e. type in your search question and click the 67-72 site, not the web), but, in a nutshell: C10/20/30 = 2WD 1/2 ton, 3/4 ton, 1 ton, respectively. If preceded by a K instead of a C, they were 4x4 models. In other words, the 10/20/30 is a rough connection to GVWR, has nothing to do with trim levels (which were Custom, Custom Deluxe, Cheyenne, and Cheyenne Super in 71/72). The upper trim to which you refer was an option for 69-72, except for the Cheyenne Super (available in 71/72 only) - which had it as standard equipment - so, your truck would have come with it from the factory. One note - the "black paint" reference in the Cheyenne Super description is for the UPPER trim (can be confusing the way it's written, for me anyway...) - the lower trim on Cheyennes and Cheyenne Supers is woodgrain. EDIT: Btw, if you're going to customize it, all bets are off, build it how you want to! Many prefer no upper trim on their trucks (I kinda like it, it's iconic to these trucks I think - but both ways look great). White with a brownish interior is a great combo. And just so you know, if brownish is what you want (peanut butter-ish), Tim at Truckseats on this site makes a saddle houndstooth seat cover that was not a factory option but looks AWESOME in these trucks and right at home. Most won't catch that it's custom at a show.

SS Tim · 09-19-2016, 10:30 PM

Short version,
CST, Cheyenne Super and Cheyenne Fleetside pickups
C10-K10 are 1/2 ton trucks with 5 or 6 lug wheels, 115" or 127"wb
C20-K20 are 3/4 ton trucks, 8 lug wheels, 127" or 133"wb
C30 are 1 ton trucks, 8 lug 133"wb

Cheyenne Supers, as part of the trim option, included the upper/belt and lower woodgrained bodyside moldings.

CST and Cheyennes, as part of the trim option included lower, woodgrained (69-72), bodyside moldings. The upper/belt moldings were optional.

IMHO without the upper trim and by adding a tan interior you are just going to make it look like a faked Super.

My recently acquired original paint Hugger orange '71 Cheyenne. Never mind the wheels and tires, they will be changed back to white wheels and hubcaps
