Crafted by someone who clearly "took the parts and put 'em
together," this 1939 GMC Pickup stands as a masterpiece of
automotive imagination. Multi-colored patina adorns the exterior
with layers of texture and authentic aging that rat rod aficionados
crave. Detailed pinstriping adorns the metal grill and headlight
buckets, while custom touches like the sawblade sunvisor, external
door hinges, and exhaust stacks punctuate its rebellious character.
The chopped and channeled cab sits atop 15" wheels wrapped in
195/65R15 Road Tour rubber up front and wide 295/55R15 Mickey
Thompson tires in the rear-a combination that gives this pickup a
menacing stance that demands attention.
Brown vinyl and hair-covered bucket seats equipped with five-point
harnesses anchor the purposefully unrefined interior. An ammo box
cleverly serves as the center console while a grenade functions as
the shift knob-just two of many ingenious modifications throughout
the cabin. Welded vice grips operate as door latches alongside a
worn deep dish steering wheel. Gauges mounted in a repurposed
taillight bucket and dummy gauges fixed to the center panel
demonstrate mechanical artistry. The sticker-covered headliner adds
the final touch to a space that perfectly balances chaotic
creativity with functional design.
Marine-sourced Chevy 350 V8 provides the muscle for this rolling
collage of automotive parts. Aluminum Edelbrock intake manifold
feeds a matching 4-barrel carburetor while rebuilt Dart heads and a
mild cam improve breathing capabilities. Long tube headers connect
to dual exhaust stacks producing an unmistakable growl. A TH350
3-speed automatic transmission featuring a shift kit transfers
power to the Ford 9-inch rear end with authority. Front disc brakes
and suspension consisting of an I-beam setup with mono leaf springs
and shocks work together with the solid axle rear arrangement to
deliver a properly nostalgic driving sensation.
