Owner Comments:
My name is Neal Cash, and this is
my 1981 Chevrolet Cheyenne. It is powered by an Inline 6 with 3 speed on
the tree, and 36,000 miles...it is original right down to the AM radio. It
has original floor mats, tinted windows, and the option sticker with original
owners manual is there. My great uncle purchased it new when he was 71.
He kept detailed records as he used it as a farm truck and probably depreciated
it on his taxes over the years. It was moved to his farm, and as he got
older the truck was used less and less. He is 96 and is selling the
farm...I was lucky and got the truck! I picked up the truck and drove it
700 miles from Texas to Georgia. I have begun a refresh of it.
Starting with all the basic mechanical stuff like cooling system, brakes, belts
and tune-up. I replaced the headliner and put on new tires and wheels.
I am currently doing some exterior work like buffing, cleaning and waxing.
