This 1969 GMC Truck has a very rich Flint MI. history. It was originally purchased in 1968, by local racing legend Bill Widall, a G.M.I instructor. He used the truck to haul his race trailer back and forth to Bonneville salt flags. The 350 engine did not have the power he wanted, so in 1969 the 455 engie was installed. The engine was put in at the Buick engineering garage, since Buick was one of his sponsors. The engine is a true 1970 455 stage 1, that was completely rebuilt to stge 1 specifications with less than 500 miles on it. The transmission is a 400 turbo that is completely rebuilt with shift improvements done. The truck was in dry storage since 1982 and has an all original interior with tilt, cruise, tach, am-fm 8-track, air conditioning, and everything works. The rear end in the truck is a 9 inch Ford 3:40 gear, nodular housing with a detroit locker that was installed in 1971. The truck has early Cal-Trac on the rear, rear air bags with on board compresser that still works. There are front and rear sway bars, bilstien shocks, and front disc brakes. The truck was repainted in 1974 and some of the clear is peeling on the hood. The body was heavilly undercoated when new. There is some small areas rust on the lower parts as seen in the picture, but overall a 9 out of 10 for being a solid truck. I purchsed this truck from the original owners son, and have the protcto-plate and original owners information. The truck drives like new, runs very strong, and everything works as it should. Please call with any questions (810) 516-1914. A deposit of 500.00 will be required within 24 hrs, with final payment in the form of money order or wire transfer. Buyer will be responsible for all shipping costs, and I can help with arragements. Thanks for loking.

Watch GM's new pickup crash its way to five-star NHTSA ratings
Thu, 09 Jan 2014General Motors has just scored a big win with its Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickup trucks, acing the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration New Car Assessment Program. The two full-size trucks had already netted a five-star Overall Vehicle Score in their crew-cab variants, but the new testing certifies them as five-star trucks in both regular and double-cab bodystyles, so GM's trucks offer top ratings across the board.
"Our incredibly capable trucks have been engineered to be some of the safest," Gay Kent, GM's general director of Vehicle Safety and Crashworthiness said. "We've designed the vehicle structure, strategically placed high-strength steel and developed the occupant restraint system to achieve high levels of safety performance."
The scores mark the Silverado and Sierra as the first pickups to net five-star scores since NHTSA beefed up their testing regime in 2011, a nice feather in GM's cap as it continues to slug out the pickup truck wars with crosstown rivals Ford and Ram.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
