Hallmark’s Lil’ American Trucks Keepsake Ornament line of Christmas decorations has just added the 1972 Chevy C10 Cheyenne to the available lineup, bringing a famous classic truck to the Yuletide festivities at your home in miniature, die-cast form.
The 1972 Chevy C10 ornament is a miniature decoration, measuring just two inches long, or about half the length of most Hallmark vehicle ornaments, 0.67 inches high and 0.79 inches wide, while retailing for just $12.99.
Despite its small dimensions, the 1972 Chevy C10 Cheyenne ornament packs in plenty of fine detail to replicate the eye-catching looks of the original. This includes extremely crisp Cheyenne and Chevrolet badging on the exterior of the green and white truck finish. The egg-crate grille is carefully molded, while the license plates bear two key dates – 1972 in the front and 2024 at the rear.
The truck ornament is packaged in a snappy looking gift box that makes for a great present on the tree or a stuffer in a high-capacity stocking. The box can also be used to protect the ornament when it isn’t occupying on a place on a Christmas tree.
As a reminder, the Cheyenne was the “fully loaded” variant of the Chevy C10, with tech like air conditioning and a polished wood dashboard for style. Tinted glass, a tilt steering column, and other premium details rare in the 1972 model year appeared throughout the pickup. The 1972 model year included several updates from the refreshed 1971 model year, which debuted many of these features in the Bow Tie’s pickup lineup for the first time ever.
The 1972 Chevy C10 is an extremely popular model among classic truck enthusiasts thanks to its good looks, solid design, and cutting-edge-for-its-time features. Many have been restored or given a restomod to keep these classic pieces of Detroit steel rolling along America’s roads and highways.
This ornament from Hallmark lets you show your appreciation for the unique spot the 1972 Chevy C10 occupies in automotive history, along with just displaying a fine-looking piece of classic pickup design and engineering in a miniature form as you relax with family and friends over the holidays.

Geez…those proportions are way off in several spots.
