You are bidding on a 1971 Chevy Cheyenne Super C10 .  This truck was purchased with the intention of doing a full frame off restore, but after going through and inspecting/replacing all the mechanical issues of the truck (and with several projects already in the garage), it became a driver.   This truck is an original unmolested truck (aside from the engine) that is NOT a Frankenstein creation and has all the original sheet metal that came with the truck whenever it rolled off the assembly line.   This truck was purchased from the family that had owned it for a majority of its life….it has not been juggled around from owner to owner .  The Cheyenne Super is an extremely popular and sought after style of the C10 trucks as it was top of the line in late ’71 and ’72.  I am head deep in 2 other restorations and simply do not have the time or room for the truck. This truck is ready to be driven as is or is a perfect candidate for a restoration.

Engine Compartment:

-v8 305 Chevy that is extremely practical for everyday driving and gets great gas mileage.  It starts, idles & runs perfectly....very dependable and mechanically sound.

-Quadrajet 4 barrel carb

-350 Turbo Automatic Transmission that shifts great

-Erson cast aluminum valve covers

-New water pump

-Power Steering

-Power  Brakes

-Aftermarket 3 core radiator

 

Exterior:

-The body of this truck has no dings and is perfectly straight

-The truck has nice patina as is, but if you want to do a complete restore, it does have the typical rust in the lower pocket of the right front fender, around the fender on the left back driver's side, under the passenger door corner, and in front of the passenger tub in the bed  (please note pics)….all are easy to fix as plenty of companies offer replacement panels, and these issues are very typical of these trucks.  If you buy one of these trucks and these are not issues, more than likely they have already been addressed.  The inner fenders also have the traditional rust in the front. 

-Rockers, cab corners  have been replaced and are in excellent shape

-5 lug with power steering & disc front brakes

-All steering/suspension components on this truck are tight

-Undercarriage is great shape...please note pics.

-New shocks

-Front & rear bumpers look new

-Stock height

-Tires are practically new with Eagle Alloy wheels

-Hitch

 

Interior:

-Tilt steering

-The floor of the truck is very solid with no rust

-Has jute/sound mat that is in great shape

-All seals & glass are in good shape

-All gauges/electrical work

 

If you are looking for a C10 pickup, you are already aware of the potential and value of the Cheyenne Super, and understand how difficult they are becoming to locate.   Overall, this truck is extremely solid and is a very nice dependable driver as is or if you are looking for a candidate to restore, this truck provides the perfect platform to start.  If you have any questions or want other pics, please don’t hesitate to ask. Buyer is responsible for shipping/pickup of vehicle.  Serious inquires only!  A Paypal deposit of $500 is due within 48 hrs. from auctions end with balance due in cash, wire transfer, or cashier’s check from bank(check will need to be verified before truck is released)Clean/Clear title in my name with matching numbers on the original door tag ready to transfer…..

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.
