Runs Excellent. Many items replaced such as starter, fuel pump, oil pump, hoses, radiator, and he has documentation for many of the items. That is pictured as well.
This is a great truck for the person that wants to lift or lower it. It is stock suspension currently.
I try to assess any item for what I notice are very good things about the item and any flaws or errors. I would recommend you take a look and test drive it as soon as possible. It fires up quick and t sounds like a fire breathing monster!
My friend is open to offers. If the bid reaches a certain amount, I will stop selling it in other markets so please make sure to bid as early and often as needed - or Just Make an Offer! Email me with questions via eBay or text me at 951-238-0162. Ask for Kase.
Pros:
Rebuilt and swapped 350 engine! 600 miles on the new engine and about 52,000 miles overall on the vehicle.
New Edelbrock Carburetor!
New fuel, water, and oil pumps! All gauges work (except fuel gauge).
New starter! All lights and signal lights working great and windshield wipers working great too.
New replica Boyd Coddington style wheels
New Daytona tires with maximum tread life
Power Steering! GREAT Brake System!
Great glass! Seats Three and all original seat belts.
98% dent and scratch free!!!
No Smog Needed and Clean Title
Original CA Blue Plates!!!!!!!!
Runs Excellent! Numerous documents including engine replacement papers, and Pep Boys services for other items.
This is now a Classic Truck and a rare Cheyenne find. It no longer has the areas for the trim so it is a smooth body - dent free and mostly scratch free as well. Original bed was left unpainted.
Cons:
Paint: Not great. The person that did it was careless and appeared to have done it hastily and not in the correct conditions. However, the body is mainly scratch and dent free which is amazing! Whoever did the body work - great job. No kudos to the painter however.
Driver door locking mechanism is not great. Needs an extra step.
Windows roll up fine but then rolling down all the way is an issue. Sometimes they get stuck about 1/2 way down. You can easily access the inside of the door by removing the panel but I have not had time to take a look and see.
Tranny: Original but old. Please keep that in mind. It was not replaced like engine and carb, pumps and starter and all the other items. Will need a service periodically. Shifts Great.
Suspension: Does make a pop on the passenger side. I checked it out and the tie rods need replacement but if you get it lowered or raised, those are included in the parts package and will be replaced regardless. It drives and turns fine however and the power steering is great but it will make a pop occasionally.
Interior: Old - could use a carpet kit, seat cover, and dashboard cover. All are about $110 online per item. Very cheap and makes it very easy to fix up and look good again.
A/C and Heater: Not working/Disabled.
CD Player: None. There are 6x9 speakers in the panels but no CD player.
One Fuel Tank: Since the owner was preparing to lower it and beef it up, only one tank on the passenger side is enabled. The driver side fuel tank is disabled. I have fueled it up and it is kind of low to the ground. It takes some getting used to in regards of where to hold the nozzle, but it hold about 9-10 gallons just fine.
My personal opinion: It will take about $600 to $1,500 to get her looking like a champ. Some of the issues are issues that are not pertinent to its utility but if you want the $15,000 valuation, you will need to put in some extra work. If I had the money, I would buy it - unfortunately, I do not... If you want to have me do the replacement, you would need you to buy the parts and we can work on a deal for labor.
Again - No Reserve!!! Submit your Offers and we will review them! If you want, come down and check her out! It is awesome and the sale proceeds will go to a good person!
Good Luck Bidding. Sale is As-Is and we have tried to list all the proficient and deficient items that we have noticed in the test drive and while taking pictures. This is a used vehicle that is 40 years old. Please keep that in mind.
We prefer Pick-Up. However, you will need to arrange for shipping. Truck needs to be picked up in its current location.

Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out
Thu, 29 Apr 2010Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.
Junkyard Gem: 1986 Chevrolet Sprint Plus
Fri, Jun 16 2023General Motors sold second- and third-generation Suzuki Cultuses with Geo or Chevrolet Metro badging in the United States from 1989 through 2001 model years, and we've all seen plenty of those cars on the street over the years. The first-generation Cultus was sold here as well, with Chevrolet Sprint badges, and I've found a rare example of the Sprint five-door hatchback in a Northern California car graveyard. The Chevy Sprint first appeared on the West Coast as a 1985 model, then became available everywhere in the United States for the 1986 through 1988 model years (in Canada, it was sold as the Pontiac Firefly). It was available here as a hatchback with three or five doors; for 1986 only, the five-door was badged as the Sprint Plus. Soon enough, The General would be selling many more Asian-built cars with Detroit badges here. Isuzu I-Marks were sold as Chevrolet/Geo Spectrums starting in the 1986 model year, while Daewoo provided the Pontiac LeMans two years later. Under the hood, a 1.0-liter three-cylinder rated at 48 horsepower. The five-door Sprint cost $5,580 in 1986, which was $200 more than the three-door (those prices would be $15,445 and $14,891 in 2023 dollars). I've documented seven discarded Sprints prior to this one (including an extremely rare Turbo Sprint), and all of them were three-doors; we can assume that price was the most important factor for Sprint buyers. Gasoline prices were crashing hard during the middle 1980s, but memories of gas lines and odd-even-day fuel rationing from 1979 remained strong. What cars competed with the '86 Sprint on sticker price? Well, there was no way to undercut the hilariously affordable (and terrible) Yugo GV, which cost $3,990. The much bigger (but still pretty bad) Hyundai Excel listed at $4,995, while Toyota would sell you a sturdy (but zero-fun) Tercel starting at $5,448. Even the wretched Chevy Chevette — yes, it was still available in 1986 — cost $5,645. The original buyer of this car was willing to shell out an extra $395 to get an automatic instead of the base five-speed manual. That's about $1,093 in today's money. This car must have been slow. By the end, the doors were held shut with duct tape, but it still stayed alive until age 37. 53 miles per gallon on the highway! It does everything. The camels of the highway.
Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4
Wed, 29 May 2013Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
