Vehicle Description
Now here's a sharp classic compact pickup you don't see around too often. This 1979 Chevrolet LUV Mikado Pickup 4x4 gets its high impact exterior visuals from its luxury-level Mikado designation and it's in good shape, displaying an array of factory-applied decals against an orange backdrop that has a nice shine to it. Take a closer look, and you'll also see that its chrome bumpers look unusually fresh and its headlights are crystal clear and ready to illuminate the path ahead. The metal tiedowns and textured bed liner in back give a fitting nod to this truck's utilitarian original intent. Only a relatively small percentage of Chevy LUVs were equipped with this package and very few are still around these days, so this well-maintained specimen represents a truly rare opportunity.
As you climb inside, the first thing you'll likely notice is the deep pigmentation of the surrounding surfaces. The vinyl bench seat, and the pair of door panels it's bracketed by, are in clean shape and the accenting chrome pieces have an impressive shine to them. Judging by its unblemished, well-fitted appearance, the carpeting below was only recently installed. This classic pickup was outfitted with an aftermarket sunroof and it's a great feature, with a tight fit to keep the elements from intruding. The factory steering wheel still holds its position on the column and the dash area beyond is well-preserved, with clear gauges in the instrument cluster and a fresh pad spanning the width of the cabin.
The engine bay is nice and tidy, harboring a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine at its center. Fed by a two-barrel carburetor, this compact but capable powerplant is in good working order, propelling this classic truck with plenty of enthusiasm. The accompanying 4-speed manual transmission is in matching condition, running through its gears with no issues at all to make for a reassuringly solid driving experience. This Chevy's power brakes include a pair of discs in front to provide all the fade-resistant stopping ability you could want and, should the desire to take on tougher terrain come over you, its four-wheel drive function is no mere novelty. It's completely functional and ready to unleash additional agility via the set of locking hubs on the front wheels.

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
Fees: A documentation fee of $399 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
Availability: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
Contact: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
Inspection: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
Payment: We require a non-refundable $500 deposit due at time of offer and an additional $500 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase.. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers.
Shipping: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
Drive it Home: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility. Documents & Vehicle Titles: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN Verification: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
Mileage: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
Condition: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!
