I purchased this truck in Salem, Oregon at the estate sale on behalf of the original owner.  The protecto plate is stamped Capitol Chevrolet in Salem, Oregon and build sheet is charged to Hamby Motors in Hillsboro, Oregon.  The truck was built in Fremont, CA.  It's safe to say this truck has never been East of the Rockies.  Rust free and solid as a rock!

This truck is my daily SO CAL driver.  It cruises the San Diego Freeways at 70MPH with ease.  It runs with strong oil pressure, cool engine temp, and ice cold AC. 

I'm a Naval Officer transferring to DC this month.  We rented a place on Capitol Hill with no off street parking, so I'm letting the truck go rather than park it on the street in downtown DC. 

The interior, bed, door jams, door sill plates, motor, and under hood all wear original paint.  The exterior sheet metal was re-sprayed at some point the original color.  The complete interior is original including the seat cover, carpet, headliner, dash pad, etc.  All gauges and lights work, even the AM radio sounds great.  The complete original jack assembly including the white styrofoam housing is in place next to the jacking and POSI instructions located behind the seat.  The spare tire is in place.  All the glass is original to the truck with correct date coding including the windshield.  The side windows roll up and down effortlessly.  The steering and brakes are tight.  There is no hesitation when accelerating and the motor idles very smooth.  The transfer case shifts smoothly from 2wd to 4wd and the front locking hubs rotate freely. 

Turn key ready - my daily driver.  It's not restored, yet the truck presents itself extremly well! It's a "Show and Go", and a real pleasure to drive. The entire truck inside and out is original made in USA GM CHEVROLET.

Recent work completed with receipts (last 200 miles):

Powdercoated the rims and added new BFG T/A KO Radials 30x9.50x15.  Nubs still on the tires.

AC converted to R134, and complete system serviced and charged.  Cooled down to 50 degree during service testing.

New Monroe shocks (dark blue), front end alingnment, and new steering stabalizer (shock).

New fuel pump and belts, both AC and alternator.

Complete tune up and filters, air - fuel - oil, all replaced.  All 8 cylinders registered over 110 PSI during testing.

Under 96K original miles on the truck.  It's fully documented with complete matching number drive train.  Included is the build sheet, protecto plate, owners manual in original jacket, emission control systems manual, and maintenance receipts.

They don't come up like this often.  Not many original, clean, low mileage '72 4x4 survivor Cheyennes left.  The reserve is very reasonable, this truck will sell and I hope the new owner appreciates it as much as I do.  Only selling because of transfer to DC.

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs

Sun, 01 Dec 2013



The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
