1968 GMC 1500 series truck. Short wide bed. Straight 6 cylinder, 250 engine with three on the tree transmission. Runs and drives great.
This is a fun little truck. It does have its issues, just like all of them do, but they are nothing that keep it from being a cool little driver. It starts, runs, steers and stops as it should. It does ride a little rough, it has been lowered and GMC trucks are leaf sprung, they don't ride as well as Chevy C10 trucks do with the coil spring set up in the rear. The little 250 just putts down the road with no problems. It will never win any speed contests but the whole time you are driving it, you have a big grin on your face. The transmission shifts smoothly, no slop or binding on the linkage. It is unmolested under the hood. The factory air cleaner is intact with all hoses still attatched. Points type distributor fires right up and does not miss a beat.
The interior is all there, of course one of the previous owners hacked a hole in the dash for a cd player but there is a cover panel over it. The seat is just that, a seat. it will need recovering and a little padding replaced. Seatbelts are intact. Windows roll up and down, wipers, turn signals, headlights,, even the horn, they all work. It does need a windshiled. There is a small rust through on the drivers floorboard near the door opening. Nothing major.
Overall, the body is in good shape. It has had a bedside replaced at one time. The tailgate is intact, opens and shuts as it should. Bed floor is in real nice condition. There is a nasty looking dent behind the drivers door. It does not affect the door opening and closing but would really look better if it were fixed. The cab supports are good, the area above windshield is good, the doors are a lot better than most of these old trucks.
We went for the shop truck look with the red painted wheels. The tires are driver condition, I would want new ones if I were going to be driving this truck all the time and for any long trips. Please do not classify this truck as a Rat Rod,, it has the right grille, seats floorboards and dash. It is just a cool old hot rod style truck.
Is it a show truck? No. Is it loaded with luxury options and power accessories? No. Is it a cool old truck you can afford and drive while you fix or change the things you want? EXACTLY... Manual steering, manual drums, hand crank windows,, this is a real truck. You can buy this, throw your shop logo on it and have a neat little parts chaser.

2016 Green Truck of the Year, Commercial Green Car of the Year finalists
Sat, Oct 24 2015Not only are commercial-grade haulers getting more green love lately, they're getting more different kinds of green love. The 2016 Green Truck of the Year, the second time the award has been handed out, is being decided by judges from Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show. This year the award is joined by the new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year, which crowns one of the little vans increasingly used by small business as cargo and delivery vehicles. The Green Truck of the Year finalists are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax (pictured), Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. The first three of those were on last year's list, but since they are completely new or upgraded for 2016 - Ford with its all-aluminum body, the General Motors twins with the new diesel Duramax engine - they qualify for entry again. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel won last year. The Commercial Green Car finalists are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. You can read more details in the presser below, and the awards will be announced in San Antonio sometime during the show from November 19-22. San Antonio Auto & Truck Show Announces 2016 Green Truck of the Year and Commercial Green Car of the Year Finalists SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show have announced finalists for the 2016 Green Truck of the Year™ and 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ awards. The Green Truck of the Year™ nominees are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax, Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. Vying for the all-new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. "Over the past few decades, new car models have benefitted from design and technology improvements that have brought higher fuel efficiency and greater levels of environmental compatibility," said Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com Editor and Publisher Ron Cogan. "With models like these ten deserving finalists, we're witnessing the pickup and light commercial vehicle field enjoying the same attention." The new Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award is part of an expanded awards program presented at this year's 2015 San Antonio Auto & Truck Show.
Chevrolet considering midsize crossover to slot between Traverse and Equinox
Mon, Jan 9 2017Crossovers are the new hotness, and automakers are looking to cash in by offering a size and shape for every customer. With Chevrolet's debut of the new 2018 Traverse in Detroit, which grew ever so slightly compared to the first-generation model, there is now a midsize-crossover-sized hole between the three-row Traverse and the compact Equinox. When asked about that obvious space, a Chevrolet spokesperson told us the company is looking into the possibility of expanding its crossover lineup. It should be a relatively simple thing to do, since all it would take is reskinning and rechristening the GMC Acadia with a bow tie, and we all know how much GM loves platform sharing. Although they're now different sizes, the new Acadia and Traverse still use the same platform; the Acadia is now on a short-wheelbase version of the C1XX while the Traverse uses long-wheelbase C1XX parts. A short-wheelbase Chevy built on the C1XX likely would be differentiated visually from both the Acadia and the larger Traverse. It may seem like flooding the lineup with more and more models would cannibalize sales of existing ones, but Chevrolet said it would rather have customers stay within the brand rather than going to another automaker. There have been whispers that some form of the Blazer name (possibly TrailBlazer) may make a return on a midsizer, but if it does don't expect an old-school body-on-frame SUV like the old one. In the end, if Chevy builds it, customers will come. Related Video:
Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1
Mon, 13 Jan 2014
The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
