1971 1/2 ton long bed Chevrolet Custom/10 Survivor.
Very low option example with rare 250 inline 6 cylinder / 350 turbo automatic transmissioncombination.
Sold new in Oakland CA with original protecto-plate included. Never left California.
Built in Fremont CA with remnants of the original build sheet included and laminated.
Original owners manual andservice parts identification (SPID) glove box option code decal.
Extremely straight and solid example. Only one noteworthy spot of rust on inside driver side rocker, and an unfortunate area of battery decay in passenger front lower fender (documented in pictures below).
Completely serviced and turnkey ready.
Everything works as it should with the only exception being the original radio is in-op (haven't looked into why).
Runs, drives, stops and steers beautifully. Easily a daily driver with no excuses. No excessive wind noise, freeway wander, over or under steer, etc, very tight.Runs and drives more like a 10 year old vehicle than 40 year old vehicle with surprisingly good power & great gas mileage at the same time.
Truck is an absolute joy to drive, and needs nothing. Very complete and original.
55,012 miles is believed to be original. Truck obviously wasn't used all that much.
Remarkable all original and complete interior with no repop items disguising this trucks true past. Excellent glass. Crack free dash. Original seat, steering wheeland floor mat still even hanging in there with far less wear than you would expect. Excellent visors, door panels, arm rests, rear view mirror and good unmolested originalpaint throughout.
New battery, new radiator, new brakes (greased ball joints, lubricated brake parts, new brake master cylinder), new wheel cylinders, rebuilt carb, replaced intake/exhaust manifold gaskets, new fluids, new belts, new filters, new gas cap, new radiator cap, new heater core, new spark plugs, new ignition coil and condenser &new thermostat. Also, drained fuel tank &installed new fuel sending unit.
Underside/ suspension clean, solid and rust free as the rest of the truck.
Really hard truck to duplicate outstanding original patina. Original first year disc brakes sticker still present on the tailgate. Doors open and close with effortless ease. Windows function the same. Blinkers, headlights, tail lights, dome light, heater, horn, wipers, side marker lights, defrost, etc, all function as they should.
October is here, don't let this pumpkin get away!
