1946 Chevrolet Other Pickups

6 cylinder

Rebuilt, Rebuildable & Reconstructed

Up for auction a rare GMC 1/2 ton pick up truck. I believe in driving the trucks I restore so I built this truck with this in mind. This truck was built using a Chevy S10 frame and has the 4.3 Vortech engine with a 5 speed manual transmission. All the sheet metal bed, cab, fenders, etc.. except the front bed panel (which i replaced) are original. The truck has 15" rally wheels with 3" beauty rings and original late 60s era derby hub caps. The cab inside floor and under the cab and under the fenders have been painted with P.O.R.15. The cab and bed were epoxied primed. And the fenders were painted with Z Chrome rust defender before painting. The truck is painted in a firethorn red gold metallic flake. The paint job is not perfect but is nice and the truck does turn heads. I tried to keep the truck as original looking as possible but also keeping comfort in mind. The cowl vent works and the windshield cranks open. There is the original style headlight switch. I used a S10 instrument cluster but also used the original style instrument cluster bezel. The seats are black leather power seats the diver seat being a 8 position power seat. The steering column is a S10 column and the blinkers, and high low beam are controlled by the blinker arm. The windshield wipers are single speed and controlled by a toggle switch in the dash. The interior light is also controlled by a toggle switch on the dash. The driver and passenger door glass are original to the truck. the windshield and back glas have been replaced. All the handles except the window crank handle are original to the truck. The steering wheel is a custom grant 13.5 inch wheel. All the rubber seals have been replaced. The bed has oak boards that me and my dad planned and finished from rough cut oak slats my neighbor cut in his saw mill. The bed strips and angles are polished stainless steel. The bed chains are also stainless steel as are the bed bolts The brakes on the truck has been replaced and the truck drives and stops great. I used the original S10 fuel tank and wiring harness. The truck is a lot of fun to drive and is a real head turner everyone loves to see it coming down the road and folks will keep you hemmed up at the store or gas pump wanting to look at the truck. The truck does have power steering and power brakes. The front is disc brakes and the back sre drum brakes The engine is a 4.3 6 cylinder and I put a TBi injected intake on it. I did not install a heater or A/C in the truck. There is a working compressor on the truck engine and there are heater hose hook ups on the engine. I decided not to install a/c because the swing out windshield and cowl vent let in plenty of air. And it stays warm here in Alabama up til November and sometimes into December. The windshield wipers work great but I dont drive the truck in the rain so they aren't used much. I also installed a new Thrush vintage sound muffler and exhaust pipes on the truck. The front grille is NOT chrome it is painted. As i stated earier in the listing the truck was built to cruise around in. It is was NOT built to be a trailor queen or to take out of the garage once a month for the car show. If you want a show truck, buy this one and put a couple more thousand and time into it My wife uploaded a video of the truck click on the link to watch the truck running . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3IUCwkislg&feature=youtu.be If you have 0 feed back contact me before placing a bid or it will be cancelled THANKS BUT IM NOT INTERESTED IN TRADING.
