Vehicle Description
63 GMC 1000 2WD StepSide powered by a 1969 Dodge 383 w/727 Auto..
Replaced just about everything. Just finish the body & paint. 1100
break-in miles since rebuild completed about 2 years ago. Have all
receipts Originally a 305 V-6 Standard trans, now a 383 Big Block,
Edelbrock manifold w/650 Holly, auto trans & 12 bolt POSI, Dual
custom 2 1/8' exhaust makes this truck a real monster. Willing to
let go for half of cost of parts. 1963 GMC 1000 Series Long Bed
Step Side Inside the cover of the owners manual reads: In 1971 the
305 v6 / man. trans. was removed and a 1969 Dodge 383 v8 2bbl. /
727 auto. with 48,000 miles was installed. I bought the truck in
2017 with 1979 license plates still attached. After getting it
running it was a mess. engine missed, over heated, trans slipped,
glass broken, wheel seals leaked, rear end had water and a rusted
ring gear. Get the picture? By 2018 I got serious & had engine,
trans, rear end & front end rebuilt. Most all parts came from LMC
Truck or Summit Racing. Here's a list of some work done;
