Ok guys (and gals). I found a craiglist ad for a 1971 Cheyenne lwb with factory air, sliding rear window, PS, PB, rally wheels, chrome bumpers front and rear with 350/350 engine/trans. The truck is yellow/white with straight body. Seller claims original paint with "very little" rust (can't see any in photos). The exhaust needs replacing. All trim is intact, glass is good. A/C works. Asking is $3700. Do you think it worth my drive 60 miles away to take a look? What is the expected value if I do a mechanical freshening and keep it a survivor?
I've been looking several months for an unmolested original truck in my area. I want a 71 or 72 for the brakes and body style, so this one is right up my ally. I think I prefer a LWB for bed capacity (i.e. plywood).
