Vehicle Description
This 1968 GMC C1500 has a sleek two-tone, awesome wood, a
houndstooth A/C interior, a crate V8, and more. It all makes for
solid investments that get you an intoxicating mix of vintage and
modern.
Minty green sandwiched in-between a creamy white gives this one an
instant classic style. But also take some time to appreciate the
details of this one. For example, the reason why a modern paint
application looks so good on this pickup is that it has some
timeless curves. The squared-off hood melts into a rounded fender
line that runs the full profile of this pickup. And you see this so
well because there has been a solid investment in this truck to
erase any workman roots. Heightening its attractiveness is plenty
of mirror-like brightwork on the grille, bumpers, and stylish
full-length trim. And we just love the glossy real wood in the
truck bed. But this one likes to announce it's more than just
vintage. A set of CPP drop spindles give this a sporty stance.
Plus, while American Racing Torq Thrust wheels are iconic, the big
20-inch size is pure modern flair.
The interior continues to give you vintage style with
well-integrated modern upgrades. For example, the houndstooth cloth
inserts in the seats are a great classic GM piece, but the whole
seat has the fresh feeling of a proper investment. Plush carpeting,
a smooth dash pad, and plenty of the exterior green on the metal
components complete the classic truck look. What you'll also love
are all the right well-integrated upgrades. This includes a
retro-style AM/FM digital tuner with Bluetooth and cold-blowing
R134a air conditioning. And while you have the classic dual-spoke
steering wheel, it's now on a tilt column to give you a nice view
of the full gauge package.
The engine bay has proper GM 350 cubic-inch V8 power. You can tell
there were more big investments under the hood simply because no
truck celebrating nearly half a century should look this tidy and
fresh all on its own. There's quite a stock-style look everywhere
from the color of the block to the detailed air grabber. But you
can also spot worthwhile upgrades. It's a fresher crate V8 that
also includes an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, spacer,
Edelbrock Performer EPS intake, and HEI ignition. There's an
updated DJM suspension, and so this one rides with confidence going
down the road. Plus, a rebuilt three-speed automatic transmission,
power steering, power brakes w/front discs, and grippy low-profile
tires keep it a great cruiser.
This GMC has been given all the right investments to be the truck
you've always wanted. And since it's turn-key ready right now, you
need to call today!
