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.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
