Here is an interesting truck, a 1968 GMC powered by a Cummins turbo diesel engine - classic styling combined with modern power and heavy-duty 4 wheel drive components: 6BT 5.9 Cummins turbodiesel with Bosch VE injection pump (no computer necessary) 5 speed manual transmission with overdrive and hydraulic clutch NP205 gear-driven transfer case Dana 60 front axle with disc brakes, lockout hubs, and 3.54 gears Dana 70 rear axle with 3.54 gears Power steering Power disc brakes The body of this truck is a 1968 GMC with a 1968 Chevrolet front clip.  It is in good overall condition, as you can see in the photos below, and was "restored" several years ago.  The body does have some body filler in places, it is not perfect, but is not rusty junk by any means.  The inside of the bed, the bottom side of the bed, and the bottom side of the cab have all been sprayed with Rhino Lining bedliner material.  All of the glass is in good condition, and the windshield is new (no rock chips, pits, wiper scratches, etc).  The doors open and close easily.  The interior of the truck, again, was "restored" several years ago.  The seat, dash pad, door panels, arm rests, visors, etc are in good shape.  A later model Chevy steering wheel has been fitted.  The metal of the dash is not perfect - I think it was bent and pulled back into shape.  It will require more work before it's worthy of new paint, but looks acceptable as it is now.  There is no radio or glovebox insert. The engine is the infamous Cummins turbodiesel, from a 1991 Dodge truck.  It runs very well and has amazing power.  It is coupled to a Getrag 5 speed manual transmission, which transfers the power to an NP205 transfer case.  The front axle is a kingpin Dana 60, and the rear is a Dana 70.  Exhaust is a pair of 5" mitre-cut chrome stacks that sound great.  A brand new 4-core radiator keeps everything cool, and the alternator is new as well.  The steering shaft has new Borgeson u-joints. This truck was built by a friend of mine.  It is basically a '68 GMC body mounted on a 1991 Dodge Cummins frame and drivetrain.  It is currently registered and driven regularly, although there are many areas of the project that are unfinished.  For example, the fuel gauge and speedometer are not operational, but the oil pressure and water temp gauges are.  There is currently no heater, but it is a factory A/C cab and the firewall has not been permanently modified (so a heater and/or A/C system could be installed easily). Overall, this is a great truck that is ready to be taken to the next level, or enjoyed as-is.  It is a truck that you can get in and drive right now without concern.  All the "important" stuff works - headlights, wipers, brake lights, turn signals, etc.  It runs down the road nicely, sounds great, and is a lot of fun.  The power steering, power disc brakes, 5 speed transmission, and powerful Cummins engine make it very easy to drive, especially compared to a stock 1968 pickup.
