1968 GMC 1500

Battle Creek

The Story

I bought the truck in Mississippi back in 2016. Since then, I’ve done a full frame-off restoration to get it where it is today.

Under the hood, I upgraded the engine to a 355 small block Chevy, paired with a 700R4 transmission. I also added power steering, power brakes, and a 3.73 posi rear end to make it drive a lot better. On the inside, I kept it clean and comfortable with TMI seats and a new set of Classic Instruments gauges.

It’s been a lot of work going through the whole truck from the frame up, but now it's finished and ready to drive.
