This is a 1971 Chevrolet Cheyenne C 10 1/2 ton longbed pickup. It is probably as rustfree and original as you will find out there. It was owned forever by an elderly fellow down in Tucson,Arizona. It has been off the road and in storage for the last number of years.The last Arizona registration in the truck was 2007. So it will need a tune up, fluids,belts ,filters,hoses changed. The stock 350 engine sounds pretty good, did not see smoke and should be good to go after freshening it up.. It will also need the brakes brought back as there are none, or very little right now. Which I found out yesterday. I put some fresh gas in it, put a good battery in and turned the key. Started right up. I drove it in my lot. Put the brakes on and nothing. Pumped them a couple times and it stopped. So this is no highway machine right now. But it will take little to get it going down the roads again. This is one of those trucks you can drive as is, fix it up as you go. It will need new seat cover,carpet, arm rests , steering wheel cover and such on the interior.The door panels and the headliner are in pretty nice shape. The exhaust is a little loud so it will need some repair there. Tires are probably due.Not too mention brakes. But it really does not need too much. While the paint is original, it can probably be cleaned up enough to go as is. You only have original paint once. The body is a beauty. Really no rust. Excellent,rockers, floor,cab corners. There is a small hole on top of the driver's front sill near the gasket where they all rust. The wood in the bed is original and needs work. There is a heavy rubber mat on it. Which may help protecting the wood, but it also traps any moisture under it and rots the wood. There are some bad spots and missing pieces on the front part of the bed.Some of the side molding is off but it is in the bed..This truck came from the factory with quite a few options. Rear sliding window,HD springs,gauge package,tinted glass,AC,PS,Delco AM push button radio,Custom Sport truck, 350, HydraMatic AT.There is some kind of antique brake controller below the steering wheel. It belongs in the Smithsonian.The original owners manual in the plastic is still in the glovebox.There is a rear trailer hitch set up so pulling a small trailer would be no problem. This would be a great weekend, go to the dump, go to The Home Depot, haul the kids to the games,go around town in style truck. Or make a great shop truck.Hard to beat these old Chevys for ease of maintenance,parts supply and all around great value. Especially one as rustfree,solid and original as this one.This is no showroom truck, or even close. Just a straight honest original well maintained old Chev with plenty of life left. Truck has a straight clean Arizona title and is ready to go. Full payment must be received within 7 days of auction end. Pick up here in Presott,Arizona is encouraged. The truck will start up and drive well enough onto a car hauler so that it would not be a non op and charged as such by the transport guys. Storage till pick up is no problem.And I can help arrange overseas transport no problem.

GM cutting back on powertrain warranty citing lack of interest
Thu, Mar 12 2015Generally, when a manufacturer offers a long, high-mileage warranty, it's a sign that it stands behind its products. On top of that, it's generally a selling point for consumers, who can rest easy knowing that any catastrophic failures will be picked up by the manufacturer. Considering those facts, it does seem rather strange that General Motors is slashing the mileage warranty on model year 2016 vehicles from Chevrolet and GMC. Instead of offering consumers a 100,000-mile warranty, GM will now only offer a powertrain warranty up to 60,000 miles. The five-year warranty period, though, remains unchanged. GM will also cut the number of free services being offered to Chevy and GMC owners, as well as Buick drivers, from four to two. "Through research, we have determined that when purchasing a new vehicle, included maintenance and warranty rank low on the list of reasons why consumers consider a particular brand over another," explained a memo sent to dealers by Chevrolet VP Brian Sweeney and his GMC counterpart, Duncan Aldred, and obtained by Automotive News. "As a result, we have benchmarked our competitors, reviewed our current offerings and have concluded the following modifications to align closely with our customers' needs and expectations." While the move might seem odd, Sweeney and Aldred are right – according to Automotive News, Ford, Honda and Toyota each offer a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty. As for what the money saved by trimming the powertrain warranty will go towards, a GM spokesperson simply told AN that the company will "reinvest the savings we will realize into other retail programs," some of which have been requested by consumers. What are your thoughts? Would a 40,000-mile reduction in a new vehicle's powertrain really turn you off from buying one? Even if it matched its competitors? Is GM better off spending its money elsewhere? Have your say in Comments.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches
Thu, 20 Dec 2012General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.
NHTSA investigates 1.7 million GM SUVs for windshield wiper failures
Tue, Nov 6 2018WASHINGTON - The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Tuesday it is investigating whether General Motors should recall an additional 1.7 million sport utility vehicles due to an issue with windshield wiper failures. GM in August 2016 recalled 367,800 2013 GMC Terrain and Chevrolet Equinox SUVs in the United States to address the problem. But after receiving 249 complaints about similar problems, the federal agency said it is probing whether the recall should be expanded to include an additional 1.7 million vehicles from the 2010-2016 model years. The automaker said it is cooperating with the NHTSA review. GM said it recalled the 2013 GMC Terrain and Chevrolet Equinox SUVs "because warranty data showed a higher-than-expected failure rate," adding it has continued to monitor field data on other model years of those vehicles. GM noted that no crashes or injuries related to the issue have been reported. The Detroit-based automaker said the recalls were prompted after a GM Canada brand quality manager reported a potential safety issue relating to reports of windshield wiper failures in Canada through GM's "Speak Up For Safety," program in late 2015. The data showed significantly higher field incidents in parts of Canada, which prompted a June 2016 recall there. Over the next two months, a higher number of U.S. reports prompted a U.S. recall, the company added. In the 2016 recall, GM said the front-wiper module would be replaced with a module that has a water deflector and, if needed, dealers would fill the water management hole and drill a new small hole in a different location.(Reporting by David Shepardson, editing by G Crosse)Related Video: Government/Legal Recalls Chevrolet GM GMC SUV
