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! |

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.

Motor Trend wheels the 2015 Corvette Z06
Tue, Nov 25 2014The new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is capable of some absolutely wild metrics. Want proof? Carlos Lago from Motor Trend is here to break it all down. 60 miles per hour? 3.2 seconds. 60 to 0? 91 feet. Lateral acceleration? A staggering 1.16g, a figure that is the highest MT has ever recorded for a vehicle that isn't a race car. It's an utterly astonishing piece of work, this Z06, and just when you think it can't possibly get any more impressive, Randy Pobst hustles an auto-equipped Z06 around Road Atlanta in just 1:30. Aside from the eight-speed auto, Pobst's Z06 had the most aggressive aerodynamic package, the so-called Stage III. Take a look at the 650-horsepower Z06 in Motor Trend's latest video.
The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
