This GMC C/K 1960-1966 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1966 GMC pickup left the factory as a two-wheel drive model equipped with an inline-six engine, and it was acquired by the seller in 2017 and retrofitted with a replacement frame, a 396ci V8, a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission, and a dual-range NP205 transfer case. The truck is finished in red, and highlights of the build include a Dana 60 front axle, a 14-bolt rear axle, 17” wheels, 35” tires, ventilated disc brakes, and Fox shocks. Additional features include a Chevrolet-style grille, a full-view rear window, aftermarket instrumentation, air conditioning, a retro-style stereo, and square-weave carpeting. This GMC pickup is now offered with a commercial California title in the name of the seller’s trust that lists the truck as a 1965 model year.

The short-bed pickup body has been fitted to a replacement frame that the seller states was sourced from a 1972 Chevrolet K10. Finished in weathered red paint, it features a Chevrolet-style grille and tailgate as well as a full-view rear window, dual exhaust outlets, and a wide-side bed with wood paneling. “Custom” badging appears on the B-pillars. The doors have been repainted.

The two-spoke steering wheel fronts a horizontal 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges, while ancillary readouts are provided in a digital display. The odometer indicates 125 miles, which is said to represent the distance driven since the completion of the build.
