Selling for my friend who is on active duty and will be gone for about 3 years and I cannot keep it at my parent's house for that long. He is open to offers and we are showing the truck (by appointment) at 6pm Tuesday and any time on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday so we can close the bidding Monday.

Engine: 350 V8 5.7L Engine - Upgraded Engine
Carburetor: Edelbrock Carburetor - New
Replica Boyd Coddington Rims and Brand New Daytona Tires
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.

Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
Nissan Leaf sets another monthly sales record, Chevy Volt remains steady
Mon, Nov 3 2014Here we go again. Another month in the books and another month of record sales by the Nissan Leaf in the US. For October, the world's best-selling pure EV sold 2,589 units, which is 29.3 percent more than October 2013. That makes it 20 times in a row that Nissan can say that last month sales were better than the same month a year before. All told, Nissan has sold 24,411 Leafs in the US this year, a new record, reflecting an overall Leaf sales rate that is up 35 percent, year-to-date. Nissan isn't stopping, either. A new TV ad, one that, "encourages consumers to kick gas" by saving money on fuel will start airing today in major markets, according to Toby Perry, director of Nissan's EV marketing. You can watch it below. As for the Chevy Volt, things remained steady last month in the face of a new model that's coming in the second half of 2015. Chevy sold 1,439 Volts last month, which is about the same as September (1,394) but down 28.8 percent from the October 2013 despite GM having its best overall US October sales this year since 2007. So far, 2014 Volt year-to-date sales are down 14.9 percent through the end of October compared to 2013. And that wraps up the flash report on monthly sales for these two long-standing plug-in vehicles in the US market. As always, we'll have our in-depth write-up of US green car sales available soon. For now, we await your comments, below. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
The best Super Bowl car commercials from the last 5 years
Wed, Jan 28 2015If you've been dipping into the Autoblog feed over the past days and weeks, you wouldn't even have to be a sports fan to know the Super Bowl is coming up. Automakers have been teasing their spots for the big game, dropping them days early, fully-formed onto the Internet and otherwise trying to amp up the multi-million-dollar outlays that they've made for air time on the biggest advertising day of the year. And, we're into it. The lead up to the Super Bowl is almost akin to a mini auto show around these parts; with automakers being amongst the most prolific advertisers on these special Sundays. The crop of ads from 2015 looks as strong as ever, but we thought we'd take a quick look back at some of our favorite spots from the last five years. Take a look at our picks – created from a very informal polling of Autoblog editors and presented in no particular order – and then tell us about your recent faves, in Comments. Chrysler, Imported From Detroit Chrysler, Eminem and a lingering pan shot of "The Fist" – it doesn't get much more Motown than 2011's Imported From Detroit. With the weight of our staffers hailing from in and around The D, it's no wonder that our memories still favor this epic Super Bowl commercial (even though the car it was shilling was crap). Imported really set the tone for later Chrysler ads, too, repeated the formula: celebrity endorsement + dramatic copy + dash of jingoism = pulled car-guy heartstrings. Mercedes-Benz, Soul teaser with Kate Upton One of our favorite Super Bowl commercials (and yours, based on the insane number of views you logged) didn't even technically air during the game. Mercedes-Benz teased its eventual spot Soul with 90-seconds worth of Kate Upton threatening to do her best Joy Harmon impression. (Teaser indeed.) It doesn't win points for cleverness, use of music, acting, or any compelling carness, but it proved that Mercedes' advertisers knew how to make a splash in the Internet Age. And, hey, it's still classier than every GoDaddy commercial. Kia, A Dream Car. For Real Life Like the Mercedes video above, the initial draw here is a pretty lady; in this case the always stunning Adriana Lima. But this Kia commercial really delivers the extra effort we expect while scarfing crabby snacks and homemades, too. First of all, Motley Crue. Second, a cowboy on a bucking rhino. Enjoy yet again.
