Vehicle Description
Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 24th year in the
classic and muscle car business. GM formed the General Motors Truck
Company in 1911 by consolidating the Rapid Motor Vehicle Company
and Reliance Motor Car Company. GMC advertising has tended to focus
on commercial buyers and businesses whereas Chevrolet trucks have
been marketed more towards private owners. GMC trucks also had
their own line of highly regarded 6-cylinder engines from 1939 to
1974. This cool 1947 GMC EC-102 pickup is a great example of an
early postwar pickup that has more charm and character in a single
fender than any new truck could hope to possess. Beneath the
classic hood is the correct and probably original 228 I6 (BCN
6107326, EC A228143817), GMC's primary 6-cylinder workhorse from
1939 to 1952. Additional features include the optional 4-speed
manual transmission, optional heater (!), and 6.50-16 wide
whitewall tires on steel wheels with correct covers. There is a lot
of cool here, but my favorite aspect of this classic is the
excellent natural patina. We've had customers that ordered
manufactured patina from paint shops, although it never looks as
good as the real thing. One more classic charmer from the Texas
Hill Country's premier source for classic trucks and the team that
can make your dream a reality. Street Dreams (830-997-1950) is a
full service dealership that can assist with worldwide delivery,
insurance, and financing options.
