If our increasing inventory is any indication there's no end in sight for the rise of the classic truck market. Case in point is this gorgeous '59 GMC 100. It's got the power where it counts great looks and a bed that isn't too over-dressed for its day job.Similar to its Chevrolet cousins this unique GMC packages up a unique 50's era paint scheme with the historic look of a classic pickup. Finished in a flashy yet subtle blue and white the great paint is enough to receive plenty of looks while traveling down the road. You'll notice right away that the truck has been lowered and features a set of custom rims. Finish work is quite good with good gaps all around and a handsome GMC emblem on the hood. What little chrome is on this '56 is in fantastic shape. Inside that bed you'll find a nice gray floor that is ready to haul all your luggage on long trips like the Hot Rod Power Tour. The exterior is definitely eye-catching but its also what is under the hood and in the cab that will blow you away. Pop open the doors and you'll be pleasantly surprised to find a very modern interior. The door panels are painted the same flashy blue as the exterior and features similar white accents. Moving farther inside the cab you can see that the seats have been updated to vinyl bucket seats from a late model. The driver's seat is powered and with the updated seats comes the updated safety of three point shoulder seat-belts making this one truck that is both modern and vintage at the same time. Sitting comfortably in the driver's seat you will notice grey carpet underfoot and face a modern three spoke steering wheel. The custom dash features Auto Meter white-faced gauges that look sharp sitting in the white accent panel on the blue dash. Auxiliary gauges are in the center console which also houses the custom stereo system that is an AM/FM/CD player that's iPod compatible and also features an amp and custom sound behind the passangers. With the shift light in place you will have no problem knowing when to use the floor shifter if you chose to. Needless to say this interior is one that is clean crisp and again a great combo of modern and vintage. Lift the hood and you'll find a very dressed up and very stout 305ci small block V8. According to the 14010201 casting number we know that the engine was pulled from a 1980-1984 Chevy pickup. However it never looked this good from the factory and certainly didnt provide this much punch. Our sales staff is VERY presently surprised how much power it produces. The completely rebuilt engine features an aggressive air cleaner Edelbrock performer intake manifold Edelbrock 500 CFM carburetor Edelbrock fuel pump and a hi-flow water pump. Spent gasses travel out the Hedman headers through a true dual exhaust system equipped with Flowmaster mufflers. The engine bay is extremely detailed and is ready to proudly be displayed with the hood up at your local car show or cruise in. Bolted to the sharp small block is an automatic transmission that sends power to a Dana 45 rear end equipped with 4.11 gears. All that power is supplied to the ground thanks to 15" custom rims that have been wrapped in Invader Radial G/Ts. Look at the details throughout this truck and then take another look at the price tag it's clearly a lot of truck for the money and you would be hard-pressed to find another one this clean.
