This is a 1971 Chevrolet Cheyenne C 10 1/2 ton longbed pickup. It is probably as rustfree and original as you will find out there. It was owned forever by an elderly fellow down in Tucson,Arizona. It has been off the road and in storage for the last number of years.The last Arizona registration in the truck was 2007. So it will need a tune up, fluids,belts ,filters,hoses changed. The stock 350 engine sounds pretty good, did not see smoke and should be good to go after freshening it up.. It will also need the brakes brought back as there are none, or very little right now. Which I found out yesterday. I put some fresh gas in it, put a good battery in and turned the key. Started right up. I drove it in my lot. Put the brakes on and nothing. Pumped them a couple times and it stopped. So this is no highway machine right now. But it will take little to get it going down the roads again. This is one of those trucks you can drive as is, fix it up as you go. It will need new seat cover,carpet, arm rests , steering wheel cover and such on the interior.The door panels and the headliner are in pretty nice shape. The exhaust is a little loud so it will need some repair there. Tires are probably due.Not too mention brakes. But it really does not need too much. While the paint is original, it can probably be cleaned up enough to go as is. You only have original paint once. The body is a beauty. Really no rust. Excellent,rockers, floor,cab corners. There is a small hole on top of the driver's front sill near the gasket where they all rust. The wood in the bed is original and needs work. There is a heavy rubber mat on it. Which may help protecting the wood, but it also traps any moisture under it and rots the wood. There are some bad spots and missing pieces on the front part of the bed.Some of the side molding is off but it is in the bed..This truck came from the factory with quite a few options. Rear sliding window,HD springs,gauge package,tinted glass,AC,PS,Delco AM push button radio,Custom Sport truck, 350, HydraMatic AT.There is some kind of antique brake controller below the steering wheel. It belongs in the Smithsonian.The original owners manual in the plastic is still in the glovebox.There is a rear trailer hitch set up so pulling a small trailer would be no problem. This would be a great weekend, go to the dump, go to The Home Depot, haul the kids to the games,go around town in style truck. Or make a great shop truck.Hard to beat these old Chevys for ease of maintenance,parts supply and all around great value. Especially one as rustfree,solid and original as this one.This is no showroom truck, or even close. Just a straight honest original well maintained old Chev with plenty of life left. Truck has a straight clean Arizona title and is ready to go. Full payment must be received within 7 days of auction end. Pick up here in Presott,Arizona is encouraged. The truck will start up and drive well enough onto a car hauler so that it would not be a non op and charged as such by the transport guys. Storage till pick up is no problem.And I can help arrange overseas transport no problem.

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green
Fri, 01 Mar 2013With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
