1968 GMC Longbed to Shortbed Conversion Pickup Orange RWD Automatic
1968 GMC Longbed to Shortbed Conversion Sierra Custom
Vehicle DetailsTruck was an older restoration that’s been freshened up and modified. Exterior looks good (not a show truck) because it does have its flaws. Overall it’s a nice truck and it gets compliments all the time. Truck is drove a few times weekly. Truck was originally a Longbed so with that being said the frame was cut and shortened. It was done right and you wouldn’t know it was even touched. (View in pictures above). Truck has newer trim including side molding, headlight fender brows, hood cap, tailgate pieces, taillight pieces, door mirrors/arms, etc.. Newer taillights and side marker lights. Wheels are 15x8 turbine style with Mastercraft Avenger 295/50/15 tires with about 1/2 tread or so. New mag style lug nuts. Truck runs and drives good. All gauges work. Truck has newer door rubbers, window felts, and cab seals. Front bumper has a valance on it which is from a 88-98 Chevy truck. It looks and fits good. Cab does have a little wind noise. Driver door appears to have dragged after it was painted. It looks to have new door pins/bushings in it now so that issue is fixed. You can still see where paint is scraped off on door jamb area. (View in pictures above). Front left and right inner fender pieces have some rust areas (About baseball sized). Not really noticeable so it didn’t bother me. (View in pictures above). Rockers, cab corners, etc where replaced/repaired at some point. Work wasn’t top notch but they look good. Truck has newer maroon interior including; houndstooth seat, seatbelts, door panels, door pulls, carpet, kick panel carpet, lower door carpet, carpet floor mats, custom steering wheel with gmc horn button, glove box interior panel, glove box emblem, door sill plates, retro sound radio with speaker, gas tank, sending unit, New gas pedal, brake pedal pad, Dash has a couple small cracks which are in the videos posted. Windows have been professionally tinted with 20% all around. Parking brake does not work and I have not looked at it. I wouldn’t use it anyway. Truck does not have a SPID on the glovebox lid to see options that were originally on it from the factory. Motor is a 350 that runs good. It has Edelbrock valve covers, intake, carburetor, and air breather. Newer plugs, wires, and distributor. Truck has mid length stainless headers down to 3 inch pipe that is dumped over the rearend with Magnaflow mufflers. Sounds really good! Tranny is a 350 turbo that has recently had new front and rear seals, new pan with drain plug, pan gasket, filter, and fluid changed. It shifts good. Truck has newer shocks, brakes, master cylinder, booster, fuel pump, etc. Windshield washer tank is there but it’s not hooked up or working. Currently the radiator overflow hose is going into a glass 1/2 gallon bottle that is located beside the battery box in the fender area behind the passenger side marker light. Not noticeable and water has a place to recirculate to. I didn’t like the look of the overflow tank behind the front grill. Truck is always stored in my shop 24/7 and it will still be drove on occasion until it sells. Look over pictures and videos. If you have questions feel free to reach out.
