This is a no reserve auction. Please do not send me messages asking what the reserve is. Please do not bid on my truck if you are not serious. If you and a buddy are pulling a scam by bidding my truck up and then backing out at the last minute to scare off other bidders, I will report you to Ebay for auction tampering. Please feel free to ask questions about the truck before bidding, but please don't wait until the last hours of the auction. Also, please be patient with my responses as I am usually quite busy. Up on the auction block is my 1977 Chevrolet Cheyenne truck. It is a pretty clean mostly original truck. As far as the body is concerned, it is above average for the age of the truck. I am pretty sure this truck has been in the Colorado desert it's whole life. There are no rust outs now as I have replaced both lower cab corners and both front fender lower rear sections with new patch panels from LMC truck. I also modified the inner panels to not hold dirt and debris in these areas anymore as to prevent future rust issues. Everything else is solid and rust free. I have had a few of these trucks and this by far is the most rust free one I have ever seen. Obviously it has been repainted. The paint was faded and I just decided to respray the whole thing after the rust was repaired. It has 3 fresh coats of PPG Omni factory color code GM 25 light blue metallic on it. The paint looks really good, but it does have some flaws. If you are expecting a perfect show quality paint job this probably isn't the truck for you. Mechanically it is in decent shape. I have replaced the spark plugs, ignition coil, cleaned the distributor grounds, replaced the starter, set ignition timing and adjusted the carb. The engine runs good, starts every time, runs nice and cool and has great oil pressure. The brakes have plenty of material left on both the front pads and rear shoes. All brake components seem to be in good shape other than a couple of grooves in the left front brake rotor. It cruises nice and smooth down the highway. I have disassembled, cleaned and greased the shift lever for the 4 wheel drive so it shifts into 4x4 with ease. All dash gauges, lights and accessories work except as described below in the "Problems" section. I do have the A/C compressor and brackets, but it is currently not installed.

The winner is responsible for all parts costs if they choose to use my services. I am more than happy to give a price quote on all or some of these items if you are interested prior to the auction ending. As with every auction I've ever done, I am sure there is something I have forgotten. Again, please feel free to contact me about any questions you have or if you want some more pictures. Thanks for looking and good luck.On Jun-04-13 at 13:55:16 PDT, seller added the following information: Just some additional notes here: I was showing a buddy of mine the auction on eBay, and the paint in some of the pictures of the truck almost looks purple and very strange. I have had problems with the way the pictures looked after they were uploaded before in previous auctions too. The truck is not purple and if it looks this way, try looking at it on a different computer or smart phone. Although you can't see the seat belt buckles in the interior pictures, I do have them and they are currently installed. I also forgot to mention that the winner of the auction has the choice of painting the wheels either blue or factory aluminum color to match, obviously at no extra charge. For those who are as obsessive as me about making sure the patch panels were welded in correctly, I did take photos of the repairs done to the lower fenders and cab corners and would be more than happy to send them to anyone who asks. On Jun-08-13 at 12:05:22 PDT, seller added the following information: I've had a bunch of people ask me if I think this truck will make a long distance trip to get it to their home so I decided to take it on a drive this weekend. So far I have put over a 100 miles on it and have had no problems. It cruises down the road at 65-70 mph with ease. It also hasn't burned any oil or had any other issues. The new plugs look to be burning nice too. I plan on having another 100 miles on it before the weekend is over and will try to update again before the auction is over. I didn't have a way to put the truck on a lift to get some pictures of the undercarriage, but it is in great shape. If anyone wants some pics of the bottom side of the truck, please message me and I will try to send some before the auction is over.
