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.

Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy
Fri, 05 Apr 2013Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.
Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
