This era of post-war pickups can claim to be host to some of the most beautiful yet utilitarian designs of our time, and the 1950 GMC FC101 is no exception. Following the course set by Chevrolet, GMC’s pickup offering followed a clean design with a rounded bonnet and fenders, a prominent grille, and fender-mounted headlights. It was also a time that saw consumers gravitate towards more car-like features, including improved comfort and visibility. GMC responded by increasing the size of the door apertures, increasing legroom, and adding a larger glasshouse, However, ruggedness and dependability were still the names of the game in the pickup segment, and the GMC FC101 delivered in spades. Our featured car has reportedly been owned by the present keeper for the last six years.
Many consider the 1950 GMC FC101 to sport a cleaner design than its contemporary Chevrolet 3100 competitor, and that’s certainly displayed best in our featured vehicle. With an old-style GMC logo up front, a clean grille design, a two-piece windscreen, and a single external rear-view mirror, the GMC FC101 perfectly embodies the design language of the ’50s. This classic pickup rides on 16-inch steel wheels with polished lips and black centers. Inside the FC101, you’ll find a refreshingly utilitarian interior that doesn’t feature the modern conveniences of air conditioning or power steering. What it does feature, though, is a new interior that has been redone in green to match the exterior color. The cabin is also home to a aftermarket radio with MP3 functionality. You’ll find gauges for the car’s fuel level, amperage, oil pressure, and water temperature, as well as a large cream-backed dial for the speedometer that reads up to 80 mph.
Under the hood is a straight-six 228ci engine, factory rated for 96 hp. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a floor-mounted four-speed gearbox, allowing greater flexibility and control over the driving experience. All four brakes feature drums, while the steering is reportedly unassisted.

The corporate cousin of the Chevrolet Silverado range, GMC’s Sierra line-up of pickup trucks is positioned at a slightly more luxurious point than its Chevy counterpart. Currently in the fourth generation of Sierra (which is the fifth generation of Silverado), the duo got a mid-cycle refresh in 2022. Changes included a revamped front end and an updated interior design, plus some tweaks here and there. That’s what you’ll be availing yourself to with this sub-34,000-mile 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 Elevation from Pompano Beach, Florida. It’s got the Elevation Premium Package, Elevation Black Package, X31 Offroad & Protection Package and a stout Duramax diesel under the hood. So, if you want a family-friendly truck that can take you further than where the tarmac ends, this is one fine option to consider.
The Chevrolet C/K Series of pickup trucks was introduced in 1960, and is the sister of the GMC C/K Series. General Motors knew that by sharing platforms, engines and other mechanical componentry across brands, they could realize synergies and enhanced economies of scale. This is seen today, with the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra duo. Here, we have a 1970 GMC C2500 Fleetside which comes from the second generation of the Chevy/GMC C/K-Series line-up. This era ran between 1967 and 1972, with the trucks assembled in a variety of places across the country. This particular truck comes from Hemingford, Nebraska and is a two-wheel drive variant, denoted by its C moniker. Furthermore, its 2500 designation tells us that it’s a ¾-ton truck. If you’re on the lookout for a classic American truck with some capability but in great condition for showing off as well, this is the ideal candidate to pick.
The GMT400-generation GMC Sierra is remembered for its durability, clean styling, and capability, offering a blend of workhorse toughness and daily comfort. This 1995 GMC Sierra 1500 SL, finished in Dark Garnet Red Metallic over a burgundy interior, is powered by a 5.7-liter naturally aspirated V8 with throttle-body injection, paired to a 4-speed automatic transmission and selectable four-wheel drive. Showing 117,297 miles, it comes equipped with a Convenience Package, power features, and a sliding glass sunroof, making it both practical and comfortable while retaining the charm of a mid-1990s American pickup.
The famous Ford F-Series was born in 1948, as America was emerging into a post-war world of promise and prosperity. Now in the fourteenth generation, the F-Series has got to be the world’s longest-running truck series, if not one of the longest. Today, the F-150 is the most popular variant as the half-tonner, but if we look at the first generation, the range simply started with the F-1 as the half-ton variant. That’s what we have here, a 1950 Ford F-1 Restomod from Groveport, Ohio. It’s received a thorough makeover with a 350ci V8 under the hood, an automatic gearbox, a converted 12-volt electrical system and more. If you want to own a classic Ford truck that you can actually enjoy driving, this 78,000-mile machine is your best option.
This 1942 Chevrolet 3100 pickup presents a classic pre-war truck aesthetic paired with thoughtful mechanical updates for improved drivability. Finished in an attractive two-tone cream and brown exterior, this truck blends vintage character with modern usability, making it suitable for casual cruising, local shows, or weekend use. While retaining its traditional proportions and styling, this example has been upgraded beneath the surface to better accommodate contemporary driving conditions.
The SUV market today is flooded with new entrants each quarter; however, the true essence of an SUV has been lost in the quest to cram in technology and comfort. Throw it back to the good old days of SUVs, when machines like the Ford Bronco and Chevrolet K5 Blazer set the tone with rugged off-road performance, practicality, and comfort for the entire family. Present today is an American hero, and it takes shape with this 1974 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Cheyenne. With a reported 60,000 miles on its clock, this classic SUV is a machine that motivates you to hit the off-road trail in style and is a looker from every angle.
