For Sale: 1972 GMC 1500 in Claremore, Oklahoma

Selling my fully restored 1972 GMC 1500 Super Custom with original part numbers matching the engine and transmission. As shown in the pictures, this truck is a complete body off frame restoration and is an absolutely beautiful pickup. Before the restoration process began, this truck was in fantastic condition for a '72 model with 112,000 original miles on it. There was very little rust to be found anywhere on the truck and the motor still turned over with a new battery and fuel pump.

Provided below is a detailed list of components that were replaced and/or restored on this pickup during the extensive restoration process:

• All bushings replaced.
• All nuts and bolts replaced with grade 8 hardware.
• Brand new suspension front to back including all new springs and shocks.
• Aftermarket disc brakes on the back, power brakes all around.
• Power steering.
• Rear end was rebuilt with new seals & bearings and powder coated.
• Original 350 motor was bored and stroked into a 383 producing 410 horsepower and 475 foot pounds of torque at 4700 RPM (all motor work performed by trusted K&S machine out of Tulsa, OK). 9.4:1 compression ratio;runs on 91 octane at the pump.
• All new valves/valve springs.
• Drop forged pistons, rods, and crankshaft.
• Roller rocker arms.
• 600 Holley carburetor.
• Edelbrock intake manifold.
• New increased 3" diameter driveshaft for increased torque.
• Electronic starter/distributor.
• Over-sized radiator with dual electric fans.
• Solenoid actuated exhaust cutoff.
• New 3" exhaust front to back.
• Brand new wiring system with electronic gauges.
• New upholstery, carpet, and headliner.
• All new glass front to back.
• Brand new rubber seals.
• Brand new trim, side mirrors, exterior logos, etc.
• Gatorhyde spray in bed-liner.
• Brand new cooper cobra tires and rallye style wheels.

This truck is in excellent condition inside and out and is a blast to drive. Located on the right side below the steering wheel mounted under the dash is a switch controlling the solenoid actuated exhaust cutoff. One of the many thrills of driving this truck is quietly pulling up to a red light and flipping this switch allowing the engine exhaust to exit out the side of the truck and avoid all the sound attenuation that the muffler provides. One can hardly tell a difference when the truck is at idle. However, as the light turns green and the pedal is pressed to the floor, the truck produces a roar unlike any other vehicle on the road and screams pure American horsepower as the tires try to maintain traction with the road. This truck does not have any flashy aesthetics that make it stick out from the rest of the cars on the road like a sore thumb. Rather, it was appropriately restored to capture the true essence of utilitarian style that GMC introduced with its pickup trucks in the early 70s. The mechanical integrity of this pickup is what really makes it a valuable truck to own! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or offers!
