Description

This is the one my friends. This is where the best of American 60's truck design meets awesome modern muscle performance, meets a bit of rat rod flavor with 60's style and some low rider respect. I'm a long time hot rod enthusiast and I built the quintessential everything truck andsadly, Ihaveto make space and I have to sell it.


This 1966 GMC short bed pickup truck came out of Montana and I had itprofessionally built at G-Man Automotive by Gonzalo himself here in LA and totally redid themechanicalswith a fresh brand new 355 Chevy crate engine w warranty from GMand literally only about 100miles on it, a newly rebuilt R7 4 speed transmission w overdrive in 4th of course, a 10 bolt posi-traction rear end so you can lay two trails of rubber and keep it straight when you stomp on i, and air bags on all 4 corners w front and rear operating separately with onboard compressor and switches.


When I planned this truck build, I wanted it super badass for me, but still be safe and drivable so my wife would be comfortable in it too. Thats why I put in new power steering, along with new power brakes with new disc brakes in front for stopping safety.


What's a killer build without the luxuries? So I had classic air conditioning installed that blows nice and cold. Don't worry about overheating because I had an aluminum racing radiator installed to keep it cool even on hot days with the AC running.


To make it look right I did the perfect sized wide white wall tires that tuck nicely when you drop it, and they are on some new primered steel rallye rimsthat you can paint any color you like,and finished withchrome smoothie hubcaps.


And my favorite part is that with all of that funstuff, youwould never knowwhat's under that iconic 60's american metal,because I kept the body bone stock, and the interior bone stock,and Ieven keptthe silver Montana rear step bumper with tow hitch in back to get that legit Farmtruck look.


Ofcourse if you hear it running, you know its got balls, with I believe new Magnaflow mufflers, which are the perfectvolume, where its legal,and just the right amount of chevy growl, with that 350 chevyold school sound, but its not loud inthe cab at all.


The paint is great for a truck, and there's no rust or bubbles or patina in it, a couple dings here and there as it is a truck. I love the original paint combo withthe pearlized white on the cab which snaps withthe wide white walls for that real 60's look. This is how it came to me,and its awesome and classicand vintage how may of them were delivered back in the day. If you wanted to rock it out with polishing compoundand then wax, it would be sick. I've been too lazy and just done Zip Wax car washes! lol.


I also have some othertoys I have not installed like a speaker box for behindthe seat and some fun knock off hub caps that look cool,and acouple other smallaccessories.


It’s the best of everything from today with the super old school look.These trucks are so popular now, and everyone wants one, but 80% of them arejust old trucks with sexy patina, cut springs/leaves, drive like crap,and are still superexpensive. This one haseverything done right,professionally built, and ready to rod.


I don't know what else you could put on this truck. The bed even has rhino coating on it. I didn't build this for profit, I built it to be awesome, and now here's your opportunity to make her yours.
