GMC 100 1959 Description
All original fully factory optioned 1959 GMC 100 v8 Hydramatic big back window for sale. This is one super rare truck, and was the most desirable truck in its production year as it came with all the bells and whistles. The long box made it even more sought after as potential buyers put a premium on payload when it came to trucks back then.The truck is in excellent working order, there is nothing left to do and is currently plated and being driven often. It has been mechanically restored by myself to like-new condition as I have done for all my Task Force (GM 55-59) truck projects. It’s a California truck that was brought up here three years ago so the body is in great shape with only a couple small spots of surface rust. The paint is driver quality. Truck cruises down the hwy at 65 miles an hour no problem, great gearing and rear end ratio for cruising speeds. The long wheel base makes for a very smooth ride.
This truck is perfect for anyone that is wanting to do some type of hauling work/labour with an old truck and would make an excellent company truck for advertising. Alternatively, it is also well suited for anyone looking for an old truck that would prefer the luxury amenities of that time for an easier and more comfortable ride while still maintaining the “original†feel.
-Original California black plate truck (you can have the plate)- Original V8 - Pontiac 336 Engine- Rebuilt 4 spd truck hydramatic transmission (installed July '16)- Original factory power steering (professionally rebuilt May '17), factory power brakes all working properly- Panoramic big back window- Custom cab chrome package
Work that I have recently done to it:- Refurbished interior including seat redone- New shifter arm and some new dash knobs- All weather stripping including window channels replaced- New rubber window seal with chrome trim for the big back window- New full exhaust – exhaust pipe, muffler and tail pipe- New 15†wheels and tires- Rewired throughout- New yellow pine bed- New battery- New alternator- Installed electric wipers- New radiator- Reconditioned heater
I have owned a handful of these 55-59 GM trucks and this is the best overall truck that I have come across. The rare options are valuable and make it quite unique. I am a person that has a thing for old GM Second series trucks, big back windows whenever possible and I have recently bought another so this one now has to go. Any truck that I offer for sale comes as result of not having enough space to keep any more than three vehicles at any one time.
Feel free to call to ask any questions.
