The GMC Sonoma is a badge-engineered version of the Chevy S10 compact pickup truck. Introduced in 1981, it was initially called S-15 by GMC. However, the name Sonoma debuted for the 1991 model year, making this 1991 GMC Sonoma Special the first of its kind. As you might glean from the photos, this isn't quite a regular Sonoma, as it's got some visual and performance upgrades going on. Keep reading to discover what they are, and if this truck strikes your fancy, give us a call or shoot us a message, and we'll tell you how to get your hands on it.
There's nothing quite like a single cab with a truck bed behind it. That's what countless pickup trucks have been offering in America for decades, and it's what this 1991 GMC Sonoma Special offers, too. Decked out in gray paint, this truck's aftermarket alloy wheels are more prominent, especially when wrapped with tires that look more on-road performance-oriented. Then, when you view this truck face-on, its aftermarket hood with massive air intake and twin black stripes become apparent. We also notice that the headlamps have been upgraded on this Illinois-plated truck. The truck's bed has got a tonneau cover for security and weather protection, so you can treat it like a car or SUV in terms of cargo carriage. Meanwhile, there are widebody rear fenders for further visual drama. Yes, this truck is a sort of racing machine, and you're about to discover more. The gray cloth interior includes the original seating, dashboard, and instrument cluster. But you'll note that upgraded Auto Meter Sport Competition gauges have been added, along with a gear shift light. The large tachometer stares at you face-on as you grip a Grant G/T sport steering wheel. Finally, there's an upgraded Kenwood head unit in the center console, offering USB and AUX inputs, as well as good old FM radio capabilities.
The highest engine available for the first-generation Sonoma was a 4.3-liter V6. However, this 1991 GMC Sonoma Special has received something much more potent. Beneath its large air-dammed hood lies a familiar sight: a 350ci V8 with Edelbrock air cleaner and cam covers. Now you know why this truck looks purposeful; it's got the goods to back up its claims. Power goes to the rear wheels via an automatic transmission, as we've told you. How that power goes to the road is entirely up to you - will it be smart, snappy launches, or clouds of tire smoke?

A time capsule often refers to a vehicle that has somehow stayed completely original and closely represents how it looked when it left its factory floors.

The GMC Jimmy is the sister vehicle of the Chevrolet Blazer. Both vehicles are basically SUV variants of the Chevy C/K-series of pickup trucks, and offer a more family-friendly value proposition. Until 1976, these SUVs also came with a removable hardtop, although it wasn’t as straightforward to remove as a typical convertible top. If you’d like to own one of these iconic vehicles, check out this 1975 GMC Jimmy High Sierra 4WD that’s for sale right now in Rancho Santa Margarita, California. The vehicle has reportedly covered 58,000 miles so far.
The GMC Sierra is GMC’s take on the Chevy Silverado. Essentially the more luxurious sister of the Silverado, the fourth generation Sierra came on the market for the 2019 model year. That’s precisely what we’ve got here, a 18,802-mile 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali from Port Charlotte, Florida. This particular vehicle is in Denali specification, and comes with up-to-date servicing, the Technology Package and the Driver Assist Package II. Moreover, it’s got some interesting upgrades to make it more off-road friendly. So if you’re in search of a family hauler with immense space, cargo capacity and payload, this full-size pickup truck is your ticket to ride.
The iconic Willys Jeep is a reminder of what can happen when military vehicles are the basis of inspiration for something aimed at civilian use. When World War II ended, Willys-Overland knew that the demand for military Jeeps would die. Smartly, they realized that with some updates and adjustments, this battlefield stalwart could offer fantastic utility to aspiring Americans, particularly those engaged in agriculture. Hence, the CJ or Civilian Jeep line-up was born in 1944. It was made until 1986 across multiple iterations, each one with many updates and enhancements over the last. Today, we’ve got a 1958 Willys Jeep CJ-5 from Gulfport, Mississippi for sale. This timeless classic off-roader has received quite a few updates, making it a fine addition to any car collection.
The quirky Chevy El Camino raised quite a few eyebrows when the model made it to the market in 1959. From the front half, it was a coupe. Then, the rear half blended into a pickup truck with a full cargo bed on offer. The type was called the coupe utility. Most importantly, it didn’t have the typical body-on-frame stance of a pickup truck. For example, the passenger cabin and the truck bed flowed into each other like one smooth silhouette. That’s because the Chevy El Camino was based on car platforms. Initially, the Biscayne served as its basis, then the Chevelle and finally GM’s G-Body platform. Today, we’ve got a 1979 Chevrolet El Camino which hails from the fifth generation of this well-known nameplate. The fifth generation was, sadly, the last, terminating production in 1987, so this vehicle is quite a definitive classic to own and drive. Bearing a decent 115,638 miles, you can see that this Madisonville, Kentucky-based coupe utility has led an interesting life.
The Toyota Land Cruiser: It’s one of the top off-roaders in the world, with a rich history dating back to 1951, making it Toyota’s longest-running nameplate. For many, a Land Cruiser is the best four-by-four, full stop. Others have made similar vehicles and continue to do so, but few can touch a properly driven and purposefully upgraded Land Cruiser in the truly rough stuff of the wilderness. Plus, the Land Cruiser has a distinctive reputation for reliability that few of its rivals can even come close to. There’s a popular saying “others may take you there but a Land Cruiser will bring you home”. So, if you’re a Land Cruiser aficionado or just looking to buy a weekend off-roader, check out this 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 Restomod from Dania Beach, Florida. With a full restoration under its belt, this timeless machine has reportedly done just 185 miles since then, and packs some neat modern features too.
