1972 GMC Sierra clean, and a recently rebuilt, strong running 454 V8, lots of choice options, and handsome two-tone paint and comfortable A/C interior make it a whole lot nicer than your average pickup.

We're seeing more and more of these trucks getting complete makeovers, and someone obviously spend a good chunk of change getting this one into tip-top shape. Fortunately, by the looks of things this long bed needed very little surgery to look this good, and the paint has a great shine that looks just right on the vintage pickup. Medium Bronze and White are period-perfect colors that fit this truck better than any other combination I could imagine, and the smooth, lustrous finish has few imperfections to speak of. Sure, it's a driver, like any vintage truck with this kind of hardware should be, but it looks just right whether pulling up at Home Depot or at your favorite restaurant for a night out on the town. They builders did things right and it's obvious that most of the trim was removed for the respray, polished up, and reinstalled to add to its well-dressed look. The long bed and regular cab are arguably the best combination for a truck that might still do some work on weekends, and it gives the truck great proportions and a purposeful look. And speaking of hauling, the bed is well preserved, with very little evidence of having been a work truck in its past, and it's protected by a color-matched spray-in bedliner - so don't be afraid to put it to work now and then.

The interior is basic, as you might expect, but there are several new upgrades and choice factory options that make it a great place in which to spend some time. The bench seat carries a Saddle vinyl seat cover that's so nice it looks like it was just installed yesterday, same goes for the matching dash pad, the flanking door panels with Western scroll trim, the vinyl headliner above, and the plush carpet below that insulate the cabin from the elements. The factory instrument panel continues the color scheme, filled with an array of factory gauges that keep an eye on the big block under the hood, while the two-spoke GM steering wheel is in such great shape you'll wonder how this truck was even driven into our showroom (white gloves maybe?). The original radio was swapped in favor of a retro-style AM/FM/AUX stereo that fits neatly into the correct factory dash slot, and the options list rounds out with seatbelts, power brakes and steering, and a factory A/C system that's been upgraded with modern fittings to blow ice cold air throughout the cabin.


Under the hood is a big 454 cubic inch V8, swapped in from a 1988 Chevrolet Suburban and fully rebuilt around 500 miles ago according to the seller. It looks the part with fresh Chevy Orange paint on the valve covers and block itself, a proper snorkeled air cleaner, and a full array new hoses and tune-up parts. Augmented with an off-road Comp Cam inside, along with an Edelbrock aluminum intake and Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor, means that there's plenty of power on tap and a big torque curve, so you'll have no trouble moving this big truck around. Power steering and power front disc brakes are just what the doctor ordered for a truck this size, and the fresh dual exhaust system underneath sounds great breathing through a set of Xlerator mufflers. The undercarriage is clean and neatly coated with satin black paint, with fresh yellow shocks at all corners that help set the ride height. A TH400 3-speed automatic transmission shifts smoothly via the column shifter inside the cabin, and it's more than capable of handling all that power as it spins heavy-duty rear end out back. 8-lug Ion alloy wheels add flash without sacrificing toughness, and they're all wrapped in 245/75/16 truck radials with plenty of grip.
