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!
This lovely 1966 GMC 1000 Fleetside wears a red paint job which is fitting for a truck that is meant to turn heads and invite people to ask questions. Further helping its cause is a set of Raceline Executive 22-inch billet wheels shod in brand-new Continental tires. We’re informed that all the glass is new, including the vent window, and that the window tracks and felts are new too. This should tell you how meticulous this truck’s rebirth has been. Continuing our journey of discovery, we find new front and rear chrome bumpers. Capping off this beautiful exterior outlook is a new bed wood with red stain, to match the eye-catching custom paint job worn by the truck. The interior of this 1966 GMC 1000 Fleetside has been thoroughly modernized, while retaining its classic lines. The original dashboard remains, but there’s a Racepack digital gauge cluster, and a Pioneer Bluetooth-capable head unit present. Then, you have a Vintage Air air conditioning unit, new carpet, upgraded speakers and a Billet Specialties billet steering wheel. Meanwhile, the truck’s original seats remain in place.
Packing a new LSX 440ci Dart V8 that’s said to be capable of 1,200 horsepower, this 1966 GMC 1000 Fleetside isn’t exactly slow. The gearbox is a RPM 4L60 unit that can handle up to 900 horsepower. As it stands, the power output has been reportedly dyno-tested at 619 horsepower to the rear wheels, courtesy of a HPC custom tune. That’s not all, the truck has got a custom grind cam by Texas Speed, Greg Good machine heads, and Holley Dominator dual sequence fuel pumps. The fuel tank has been relocated under the bed, and there are new disc brakes for better stopping power.

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.
Today, the GMC Sierra 1500 is known as quite a sizeable light-duty pickup, but it started its life as a much different square-body pickup. The early GMC Sierra shared its platform with the Chevrolet C/K, offering a silhouette that has been embedded in American car culture. Our featured car has been extensively upgraded, but visually and under the hood. This 1986 GMC C1500 Sierra Classic features a monster of a motor powering it: a blueprinted 355ci V8 Crate engine. With a reported 21,500 miles, this stunning pickup could be a brilliant addition to anyone’s automotive arsenal.

The 90s brought some of the most iconic motors to life; the Japanese had their range of performance machines, the Europeans had their M spec and AMG machines, and over in the US, machines like the GMC Syclone stole the show. With its unassuming features and high performance, the GMC Syclone kicked off the performance truck craze that is still present today and is a hot seller for many manufacturers. Present here is this 1991 GMC Syclone that is only 1 if 2,998 total Syclones produced. This classic American performance machine is a time capsule from the '90s and is reported to be an all-original example with a documented 73,500 miles on the clock.
The Jeep CJ series can trace its roots back to the original Willy’s Jeep, the car that mobilized the American forces during the Second World War. Since then, the Jeep CJ has found its way into the hearts of many around the world, who appreciate this quintessential offroader for its rugged abilities and backyard mechanic simplicity. The CJ-7 was introduced in 1976 and would be the last “CJ” Jeep before the introduction of the Wrangler that we know today. Our featured 1978 Jeep CJ-7 is described as a restomod, with a 304ci V8 engine, and a whole host of improvements to be found under the metal — that’s in no small part thanks to the owner reportedly spending over $13,000 in aftermarket work alone!
People remember the Chevrolet El Camino for one major reason. That reason is the fact that the El Camino is a coupe utility, or ute. The front half is that of a car; the rear half is a pickup truck. However, the El Camino isn’t a rough-riding body-on-frame vehicle. The second generation, from which this 1965 Chevrolet El Camino hails, is adapted from the midsize Chevy Chevelle platform. So, you can expect a suitably car-like ride and handling characteristics, but still get a decent amount of payload capacity thanks to the vehicle’s truck bed. This 90,000-mile 1965 Chevrolet El Camino has received some refurbishment work, and notably, it’s said to have been owned by one family all its life. That makes it a wonderful classic to buy and enjoy.
Classic cars from the ’60s are hot property. But it’s not just cars that have found their way into the hearts of enthusiasts. Humble work trucks like the 1963 Chevrolet C10 are just as desirable. With values for these historic workhorses climbing year after year, it’s getting hard to find good examples of these classics. Our featured 1963 Chevrolet C10 Stepside appears to be largely original and features a 230ci engine, with a four-speed manual transmission. Whether you’re looking for a well-preserved classic truck or the perfect basis for a restomod, this C10 could be the answer you’re looking for.
