GMC is a division of General Motors that primarily focuses on SUVs, trucks, vans, buses, motor homes and military vehicles. Some of GMC’s vehicles were actually built by Chevrolet before being rebadged as GMC models. In the 1960s, Chevrolet’s range of C/K light-duty trucks was rebadged as the GMC 1000 (½ ton), 1500 (3/4 ton), 2500 (1 ton) and 3500 (1½ ton). This example is a 1966 GMC 1000 Series Big Window Fleetside light-duty truck that has undergone a ‘restomod’ – in that it has been restored, as well as given a modern makeover in certain areas. Coming from Texas with less than 200 miles on the clock after the rebuild, this vehicle is sure to get your pulse racing, as well as turn heads as you drive by.
Exterior and Interior
A cursory glance at the exterior of this 1966 GMC 1000 Series Big Window Fleetside will not reveal much as to what lies beneath the skin. Finished in an eye-catching red paintwork, the first thing that your eyes will pickup are the Raceline Executive 22” billet wheels wrapped in Continental rubber. You may notice the disc brakes lurking behind, appreciate the red-stained wood in the bed that matches the paintwork and the chrome detailing, as well as the ‘Custom’ and ‘V6’ badging too. Peeking inside will reveal a cabin that retains the original leather bench once again wrapped in red leather, as well as a modern Pioneer head unit and upgraded speaker system that the current owner claims “sounds phenomenal”, as well as a VintageAir AC system with its controls sitting in the center of the red-painted dash. You will then notice the custom Billet Specialties steering wheel, and sitting behind it, a Racepack electronic digital gauge cluster. By now, you must be realizing that this isn’t a regular GMC 1000. The vehicle has new carpets, as well as new glass with vent window and replaced tracks and felts.
Engine
That V6 badge? It’s a red herring. Whilst the GMC 1000 range did come with a 305ci V6 option, as well as a smattering of in-line sixes, this 1966 GMC 1000 Series Big Window Fleetside packs a LSX 440 Dart motor which is based on the Chevrolet LS7 V8 from the Corvette. The block is rated at up to 1,200 hp, as are the Holley Dominator dual sequence fuel pumps. A custom grind cam by Texas Speed is installed, as are Greg Good machined heads. Drive is to the rear wheels via an RPM 4L60 automatic transmission that is rated for up to 900hp. Disc brakes are installed all-round, and electric power steering is another upgrade under the hood. The fuel tank has been relocated beneath the bed. Finally, it’s received a custom tune by HPC, and has been dynoed at 619hp at the rear wheels.
GMC and Chevy have been making pickup trucks together for ages. In fact, this stretches way back to the Chevy Task Force series and beyond. When the popular Chevy C/K series debuted in 1960, naturally, GMC would get its own variants. The GMC 1000 was the half-ton variant, equivalent to a Chevy C10 or K10. In terms of mechanicals and styling, the models were basically indistinguishable except for badging, unlike today, where the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra have some visual differences. However, this 1966 GMC 1000 Fleetside is definitely a stand-out sort, because it’s a restomod. Packing a potent engine and some neat creature comforts, you could be the next lucky owner of this beauty. But you’d better act fast!

Classic pickup trucks have become some of the most popular foundations for custom builds, and this 1946 GMC EC101 Restomod Pickup is an excellent example of why. Retaining the timeless styling that made post-war GMC trucks iconic while incorporating modern drivability and comfort, this professionally customized pickup offers the best of both worlds. Showing approximately 3,666 miles, this truck is finished in a striking Brandywine and Black two-tone exterior over a Beige interior. Highlights include a custom paint job, Dakota Digital instrumentation, Vintage Air climate control, a reupholstered cabin, custom running boards, and a dependable V8 powertrain, creating a unique classic that is equally suited for local cruise nights and weekend drives.
This 2024 GMC Yukon Denali Ultimate H650 takes GMC’s already ultra-premium full-size SUV and elevates it into something far more exclusive through Hennessey Performance engineering. Showing 35,527 miles, this Onyx Black example combines the luxury and technology of the Denali Ultimate trim with the added performance of the Hennessey H650 package, transforming this family hauler into a 650-horsepower supercharged SUV. With a Whipple supercharger system, upgraded engine components, HPE calibration, and a throaty MagnaFlow exhaust system, this Yukon delivers the kind of straight-line performance few full-size SUVs can match while still retaining its exceptional comfort and long-distance usability. Finished in a sophisticated Onyx Black over Alpine Umber specification, this H650 offers an ideal blend of understated luxury and high-performance capability.
The Chevy Silverado and the GMC Sierra are intrinsically linked, and have been for decades. Way before the Silverado became a truck series, it was a trim line for the Chevy C/K Series of pickup trucks. Even then, the GMC Sierra was based on it, and shared many components. So, it’s pretty easy to maintain this 1989 GMC Sierra 1500 Restomod that’s up for grabs in Houston, Texas. The truck has already received a host of refreshments and upgrades, making it a turn-key classic for a discerning new owner. Whether that be a seasoned classic car collector or an enthusiastic young person yearning for less digital and more engaging automobiles to drive, we’re glad to facilitate the transfer of this truck into new hands.
