You are bidding on a super-cool 1971 Chevrolet Cheyenne pickup. I am the second owner of this truck that was bought new from Lacy Harris Chevrolet in Ashdown, Arkansas (I still live 20 miles from Ashdown!). I have owned this truck for about 13 years. I bought this truck with 40,000 on it and actually used it as a hunting truck. It ran SO strong with its 350 Quadrajet set-up, I pulled a camper with it. I never did much with it, and then one day two years ago I wanted to restore this beautiful old truck. It had some wear and I did not want to spend millions of dollars on a frame-off restoration, so I began to do it pretty much myself. Other than having a local college Collision Repair class repaint it inside and out (a pretty cool job...not perfect...but really nice!) I have done the rest. Since the motor and transmission needed nothing, I have performed to the following on this PERFECTLY running truck: All new chrome (go price this!...expensive) All new hoses, belts, vacuum system All new heating system (interior vacuum, feeder hoses, etc.) All new dash pad, sill plates, etc. All new period-perfect radial tires All new Quadrajet carb rebuild (idles forever...try that with a Quadrajunk!) All new roll-in bed liner All new transmission service (shifts out perfectly) And I bet I have missed some things. I want to stress this is NOT A PERFECT TRUCK, but I can tell you where there was minor surface rust (minimal) on the fenders, doors, and inner fenders, I had it either REPLACED with new metal or metal patch. No filler here. Get out your magnet and check if you would like! Here are the things I wanted to fix, but decided to sell instead: Needs new or better steering wheel Needs new seat cover Needs windshield Needs shocks Needs armrests As you can see, not a whole lot to make this a really cool truck. A show winner? I don't know about that, but this is a no-nonsense cool Arkansas truck. In fact, I feel so good about it, you can drive it home...no matter where you are from. No kidding. This puppy runs great. Ask all the questions you want or call me at 870-582-2192. I will be happy to be up-front with you about anything. I have been keeping this truck under my shed for two years now, and it is time to go! On Feb-24-14 at 06:33:30 PST, seller added the following information: UPDATE! I wanted to mention that there were minor things that I wanted bidders to know: 1. The TEMP gauge sending unit does not work. I assume this is not a big deal. 2. Power steering works fine. It does make noise when turned fully left or right. 3. The oil pan and valve cover gaskets do seep, but no main bearing leaks or things like that. Welcome to being 43 years old. 4. I changed to electronic ignition 10 years ago, so you don't have to! (Can't stand points!) 5. It HAS been completely tuned up, including plugs, rotor, distributor cap, plug wires, carb...everything! I think this is as honest and open as I can get. This is NOT A PERFECT TRUCK but very few are this clean...in my opinion.

It is all good sheet metal so bid with confidence! SC
