1971 Chevy Cheyenne Pickup 61,000 Miles. Barn Kept In Arkansas on 2040-cars
You are bidding on a super-cool 1971 Chevrolet Cheyenne pickup. I am the second owner of this truck that was bought new from Lacy Harris Chevrolet in Ashdown, Arkansas (I still live 20 miles from Ashdown!). I have owned this truck for about 13 years. I bought this truck with 40,000 on it and actually used it as a hunting truck. It ran SO strong with its 350 Quadrajet set-up, I pulled a camper with it. I never did much with it, and then one day two years ago I wanted to restore this beautiful old truck. It had some wear and I did not want to spend millions of dollars on a frame-off restoration, so I began to do it pretty much myself. Other than having a local college Collision Repair class repaint it inside and out (a pretty cool job...not perfect...but really nice!) I have done the rest. Since the motor and transmission needed nothing, I have performed to the following on this PERFECTLY running truck:
All new chrome (go price this!...expensive) All new hoses, belts, vacuum system All new heating system (interior vacuum, feeder hoses, etc.) All new dash pad, sill plates, etc. All new period-perfect radial tires All new Quadrajet carb rebuild (idles forever...try that with a Quadrajunk!) All new roll-in bed liner All new transmission service (shifts out perfectly) And I bet I have missed some things. I want to stress this is NOT A PERFECT TRUCK, but I can tell you where there was minor surface rust (minimal) on the fenders, doors, and inner fenders, I had it either REPLACED with new metal or metal patch. No filler here. Get out your magnet and check if you would like! Here are the things I wanted to fix, but decided to sell instead: Needs new or better steering wheel Needs new seat cover Needs windshield Needs shocks Needs armrests As you can see, not a whole lot to make this a really cool truck. A show winner? I don't know about that, but this is a no-nonsense cool Arkansas truck. In fact, I feel so good about it, you can drive it home...no matter where you are from. No kidding. This puppy runs great. Ask all the questions you want or call me at 870-582-2192. I will be happy to be up-front with you about anything. I have been keeping this truck under my shed for two years now, and it is time to go! |

How long will the 'golden age' of performance last?
Sat, Mar 26 2016High-powered sports and luxury cars were everywhere at the New York Auto Show, prompting the obvious question for enthusiasts: How long will this golden age of performance last? Industry leaders have some time before regulations elevate the Corporate Average Fuel Economy level in 2025. Even then, they expect cars rippling with power to survive in some form. "Is it the end of an era," I don't think so," said Ola Kallenius, Daimler AG board member for Mercedes-Benz cars marketing and sales. "That performance element of individual mobility I don't think will ever go away." Kallenius, who oversaw the company's AMG division from 2010-2013, expects it to continue to grow. Last year, AMG sold a record 68,875 units around the world, an increase of 44.6 percent over 2014, with strong growth in the US, China, and Germany. Still, there's always the potential for gas to spike, and pending fuel economy regulations are looming. That could lead AMG to add electrification to its products, Kallenius said, pointing to the electric SLS as a test case. Chevy is also thinking ahead, said Al Oppenheiser, chief engineer of the Camaro. He wouldn't bite when asked about electrification for the Camaro (he did say "never say never"), but admitted in 2025 "it's going to be pretty tough to sell V8s." For now, things are rosy for muscle cars, and Chevy confidently showcased the 640-hp Camaro ZL1 in coupe and convertible form in New York. "I think that this is truly the golden age of performance," Oppenheiser said. It's hard to disagree. News & Analysis News: The 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF was a show-stopper in New York. Analysis: There was a palpable energy when this RF — for Retractable Fastback — was revealed the night before the show at a trendy off-site venue near the Hudson River. Even as a parade of SUVs and flashy luxury cars rolled out the rest of the week, the Miata remained a hot topic. The Retractable Fastback is really a clever targa top, with part of the roof stowing behind the seats, adding about 100 pounds compared to the standard convertible. It makes the car more practical and arguably more attractive. The RF continues Mazda's tradition of selling the Miata with a hardtop variant. The first and second generations offered a detachable one, and a power retractable hardtop (a $1,700 option) was available on third-gen models. Judging by its reception in New York, the RF could prove to be even more popular than its predecessors.
Chevy Volt has worst sales month since August 2011, Nissan Leaf also down
Tue, Feb 3 2015January is traditionally a time when new car shoppers take a break. For the last few years, if we isolate our focus to just the first two major plug-in cars in the US market, we see that the first month of the year was lower – often dramatically lower – than the 11 that followed. So, when you see the Chevy Volt dropped and Nissan Leaf sales figures for January 2015, don't be too surprised. The Volt sold only 542 units last month, that model's lowest since August 2011. That also represents a 41 percent drop from January 2014, and it reinforces the thought that if anyone out there is interested in a new Volt, they're going to be waiting for the new model to drop later this year. While we do expect sales to climb in February and into spring, we won't be surprised if the general Volt trend remains quiet until the second-generation arrives. On the Leaf side of the ledger, January's low sales numbers were still about twice as high as the Volt's – the Leaf sold 1,070 units last month, the lowest since February 2013 – but it did break a streak for the Japanese automaker. Usually, each month represents at least an increase over the same month a year ago, but that wasn't the case this time. In January 2014, Nissan sold 1,252 Leafs. Still, Brendan Jones, Nissan's director of electric vehicle sales and infrastructure, issued an upbeat statement: "We saw a significant increase in demand in December from Nissan Leaf customers looking to take advantage of federal and state incentives at the end of the tax year, which pulled some sales ahead. We're confident that EV sales will continue to rise over time due to increasing emission regulations and other reasons for purchase of EVs such as lower operating costs, reducing dependence on foreign energy sources, environmental concerns and a great driving experience." The numbers will tell us soon enough. News Source: General Motors, Nissan Green Chevrolet Nissan Electric Hybrid ev sales brendan jones
GM Halts Sale Of Most Chevy Cruze Models
Fri, Mar 28 2014General Motors has told dealers to stop selling some 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars. But the company won't say why. Dealers say stop-sale orders are routine and almost always made to fix a safety problem. They received the order in an e-mail Thursday, but no reason was given. The move comes as GM deals with fallout from a delayed recall of 1.6 million older small cars to fix an ignition switch problem. The company says the switches can slip out of the run position and shut down the engine. That causes loss of power steering and brakes and disables air bags. GM says the problem has been linked to 31 crashes and at least a dozen deaths. Spokesman Greg Martin says he has no details on the Cruze.
