This 1950 GMC 5-Window Pickup is a beautifully executed, high-end
pro-built restomod that blends timeless American design with modern
GM performance, braking, and drivability. The result is a truck
that respects its heritage while delivering the refinement,
confidence, and capability of a contemporary build.
Finished in Mazda Soul Red Crystal, the exterior presents with a
deep, liquid metallic finish that carries a true candy-apple depth
in the sunlight. The paintwork and overall finish quality are
immediately apparent, showing excellent gloss, depth, and attention
to detail. The classic GMC lines remain intact, complemented by
original grille and mirrors that help preserve its authentic
character.
Power comes from GM's Connect & Cruise matched system pairing a
6.2L LT1 crate V8 with an 8L90E 8-speed automatic transmission,
delivering smooth OEM-level drivability and effortless highway
cruising. Wilwood performance brakes provide strong, modern
stopping power to match the upgraded performance, giving the truck
confident and controlled road manners. Supporting components
including a Champion aluminum radiator and SPAL electric cooling
fan ensure reliable thermal management.
Exhaust is handled through custom 1 3/4-inch headers into a
2.5-inch stainless system finished with a Borla XR1 muffler,
offering a refined but purposeful tone. The stance is set by
18-inch front and 20-inch rear U.S. Mags Mad Max US354 billet
wheels wrapped in Nitto performance tires, giving the truck a
confident and well-balanced presence.
Additional details include LED headlights and taillights, a custom
wood bed, and front and rear bumpers sourced from LMC Truck, all
integrated cleanly into the build. With just 636 miles since
completion, it presents in outstanding, lightly used condition
throughout.
Overall, this is a beautifully finished GMC that shows
exceptionally well in person. The craftsmanship is consistent
across every detail, resulting in a cohesive, high-quality restomod
that blends classic design with modern performance, braking, and
reliability in a very refined package.
