1972 GMC K2500 CST - Factory 4x4 - A/C - V8, Auto Trans, Power
Brakes, Power Steering, Rare Bird!
You're looking at a rare and incredibly sharp truck finished in
it's original color combination - Dark Olive w/ a White Roof. This
truck was frame off restored some years back with the goal of being
a daily drivable classic that had just the right creature comforts!
Starting at the front end you notice the unique GMC grill giving it
four headlights versus Chevy's two. On the edge of the hood you
also see GMC badging where Chevys of this year were left blank.
Underneath that hood is a date correct 1972 GM 350c.i. which is
accompanied by all of the desired amenities! A/C, Power Steering,
and a Power brake booster. (Front Disc, Rear Drum) This was a
factory A/C truck that has been modernized with a Vintage Air kit!
Behind that V8 is a replacement TH350 Automatic Transmission backed
by the original NP205 Transfer Case which delivers power to the
front and rear(4.10P) Axles! Riding on Raceline Aluminum Wheels
with newer All Terrain Tires! (2020)
The interior of this pickup has been tastefully updated with TMI
bucket seats and center console! These seats not only utilize the
factory shoulder belts, but also feature an adjustable base and
seatback. As you look further into the cab you will notice a
3-Spoke Grant GT Steering wheel which is fixed to the factory
optioned tilt-column. This truck utilizes the factory gauge cluster
which boasts a 100-mph speedometer, and an inset of auxiliary
gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 75k miles. The original AM
radio was replaced with a RetroSound unit giving the truck modern
sound while keeping classic styling!
Additional information about this 72 GMC:
The frame was taken down to bare metal and coated with chassis
paint. The frame is straight, without heavy pitting, and shows no
signs of any repair! The floorpan of the cab was also stripped and
painted body color, no signs of any rust or rust repair found! All
cab mounts were replaced at this time along with many other
bushings/wear items. The front and rear bumpers were replaced
during restoration along with the front inner fenders. The window
felts and seals were replaced as well as the door seals and
latches. Sound deadening material was installed underneath the
rubber floor liner. This makes a world of a difference when it
comes to road noise! Now for the truck bed! The bed floor has been
coated with a bedliner material and Aluminum Diamond plate bedrail
caps have been added. Overall the truck bed shows some authentic
wear and tear, but is in great shape and can be used as intended
without fear! When considering this pick'em-up keep in mind GM
produced about 1/3 the amount of GMC's as they did Chevrolets. We
love them all, these are just a bit more special!
