Barn find from the grandson of the original owner. Purchsed new from Joe Romania Chevrolet per the PROTECTO plate and other documentation. The truck has remained and has been titled in Eugene, OR since 1972.
79K original miles. Kept under a carport, it retains original paint, original interior and complete original matching # drive train. This truck has not been repainted, restored or fixed up. It's all original from the GM plant in 1972. Not even any rattle can under the hood. When is the last time you saw a 402 big block with the original manufacture date sticker on the valve cover? Or have you ever seen an original window sticker? This is the first one I've seen. I've seen lots of re-pop window stickers, but never an original.
Tailgate and chrome over brass hubcaps were in storage and are in NEW CONDITION. New take off tailgate and hubcaps from 41 years ago, don't see those every day either, simply amazing. The entire front clip including the grill, bumper, hood, paint, trim, and chrome is near showroom new condition. The carport storage and camper on the truck since new preserved the entire cab and front clip as in "time capsule".
No wear showing on the completely original interior including the seat cover, floor mat, seat belts, visors, radio, gauge cluster, door panels, arm rests, door latch plates, etc. The custom deluxe seat covers are not even available after market like the cheyenne seat covers are. Impossible to find an original custom deluxe seat cover in this condition, not to mention the original mint floor mat, arm rests, seat belts, and dash pad and other original trim parts.
Just coming out of storage, the original CARB was rebuilt, a new NOS gas tank was installed, and the motor was DYNO tuned with a new HEI upgraded distriubutor. I recently drove this truck and it's incredible. No hesitation when you floor it, tight tight steering, stops on a dime (new brakes) no leaks, very dry and clean underneath. Good 9.50 x 16.5 Michlen Radials mounted on the original GM rims. This truck is exceptional and is the best running, driving, handling 72 we have ever owned.
Every little thing works on the truck including the AM radio, dealer installed spot light, all gauges, all lights inside and out, cigarette lighter, heater, wipers, etc.
As with any vintage survivor vehicle, I would recommend going through the radiator, water pump, heater core and thermostat before driving it on a long road trip. My Dad can have this done for you if you want to fly in and drive her home. The truck is stored under cover at my folks house in Eugene OR.
Bid with confidence on this one!
Thanks for looking. Call evenings and weekends with any questions - 619-402-0224.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
