I purchased this vehicle from a friend who purchased it new back in November 1979 out of Freemont California. It was a special order 1 ton 4x4 with factory a/c and took 8 months for delivery. The compressor is out of the a/c and it was not cost effective for me to replace.
The truck runs and drives like new. It has an 8,000 lb winder winch installed under the bumper, a roll bar and tool box all installed by the original owner. It also has a factory 8 track stereo and CB as well (true 80s) The owner put 35 inch BF Goodrich all terrain tires on that are in new condition.
The vehicle has had the fenders slightly clipped to handle the 35 inch tires in front as well as a few small scratches and small dings on the side molding. The interior is in exceptional condition with the exception to some sun damage on the top of door panels and one very small separation on the drivers side seam in the seat. The cover was installed when the vehicle was new but through the years there is that very small separation.
In the early 1980s Exxon mobile had a refinery explosion that created some paint damage on vehicles in the area. This truck was one that was exposed and Exxon had repainted. The truck has never been wrecked but did receive new paint job.
I purchased the truck to use as a work vehicle but decided it was to nice and rare to be beat up in the field. Hence the ebay ad for someone who has special ties to this kind of vehicle and can appreciate it's rare low miles.
Whoever purchases this vehicle can have access to the original owners contact information for any additional questions, I just don't want to bombard him with strangers calls. I do have the original bill of sale, owners manual and original plates. The vehicle has been in Bend Oregon where I reside since the early 90s. Most of the miles were put on in the 80s and the truck was garaged but never past the driveway for almost 10 years. I took the truck to the dealership to have it inspected and they were quite impressed with no mechanical recommendations. The bid for replacing the a/c was almost $1,000.00. (No Thanks)
I have tried to be as honest as possible because this is the first vehicle I have listed on Ebay and want to have a smooth transition. You can call me with any additional questions at 541 408-4088

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.

Valet mode captures joyride in red Corvette
Thu, Dec 18 2014A man in California is among the first to catch a valet behaving badly in his 2015 Corvette using a controversial built-in recording feature. Dan Cowles told KTLA 5 when he bought his dream car, a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, he opted for the Performance Data Recorder. The Corvette PDR uses a high-definition camera mounted in the windshield header, a microphone in the cabin and a GPS receiver that record and track the sports car's movements and sounds. They work together to produce a video with telemetry overlay, so you can see acceleration rates, lap times and g-forces. The system can be customized to show extensive performance data, or simply video of your drive like a traditional dash cam. It also comes with Valet Mode, which locks the glove box, disables entertainment and records video. The audio recording feature ran afoul of several state's recording consent laws, but this video has no audio, indicating the fix may have been as easy as turning off the microphone. Cowles dropped off his hot red 'Vette with the valets at the Segerstrom Center for the Performing Arts in Costa Mesa, CA. When he got his car back he checked the PDR and discovered footage of the valet taking a short, but intense, joyride in the garage. In the video, the valet finds a straightaway in a tiered parking garage and pushes the car to 50 miles per hour in five seconds before quickly stopping. He then parks the car without incident. The valet then gets out of the car and takes one more admiring look at the front. The valet company has yet to commented on the video, according to Fox News, but valets everywhere should be on notice; that little red Corvette you have your eye on may have its eyes on you.
