Vehicle Description
You might call this the dream truck. So many people have a vintage
truck stored in their barns or garages for years with dreams of
"someday" building or restoring it. Or the project gets started,
but stalls somewhere in the middle. The ultimate dream would be to
have a great old truck that drives and has all the convenience and
performance of a new truck. This 1951 GMC Panel truck is a dream
come true. The drivetrain is as modern as they come with a 5.3
liter LS V8 providing the power. It's even dressed up for show with
custom aluminum panels and - count 'em - eight mini air filters.
The smooth-shifting F60 automatic has overdrive for economical
highway operation. The interior is a real highlight of this build.
The gray leather looks like that of a new high-end vehicle, and it
features such modern amenities as back-up camera, tilt wheel, air
conditioning, and a touch screen sound system that's ready for
satellite radio and navigation. Power steering and power disc
brakes add to the confident feeling of the truck. There's even a
tribute to the "field of dreams." Custom artwork on the side panels
is of such quality that you can identify the make and the year of
all the old trucks out in the yard and out of service. You don't
need to spend years waiting for your dream truck to get built. It's
waiting for you now at Maxmotive.
