Today, the GMC Sierra 1500 is known as quite a sizeable light-duty pickup, but it started its life as a much different square-body pickup.

The Chevrolet C/K Series of pickup trucks was introduced for the 1960 model year and ran until 2002, when the Silverado series took over.

However, this isn’t just another C1500, but a fine restomod with some great modern creature comforts to make it a pleasant daily driver, as well as a showstopper.

GMC and Chevy have been making pickup trucks together for ages. In fact, this stretches way back to the Chevy Task Force series and beyond. When the popular Chevy C/K series debuted in 1960, naturally, GMC would get its own variants. The GMC 1000 was the half-ton variant, equivalent to a Chevy C10 or K10. In terms of mechanicals and styling, the models were basically indistinguishable except for badging, unlike today, where the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra have some visual differences. However, this 1966 GMC 1000 Fleetside is definitely a stand-out sort, because it’s a restomod. Packing a potent engine and some neat creature comforts, you could be the next lucky owner of this beauty. But you’d better act fast!

The GMC Yukon and its sister SUV, the Chevrolet Tahoe, have been a staple SUV in the North American region. Both SUVs focus on rugged capabilities and luxurious comfort, which are amalgamated into a complete package. The GMC Yukon was introduced in the early 90s, and a fun fact is that it was first introduced as a two-door model. Its name, Yukon, derives from the Canadian territory of Yukon, which itself is rugged and vast. As of 2024, the public has experienced five generations of the venerable SUV, with many calling the first-generation Yukon the best Yukon. Produced from 1992 to 2000, the first-generation Yukon was a star as is with this 1997 GMC Yukon GT 4x4 with a reported mileage of 182,000 miles.
Jeep is well-known for making capable off-roaders, but did you know that they also make pickup trucks?

Ford’s epic sport utility vehicle, the Bronco is one of the Blue Oval’s most desirable vehicles in North America. When it debuted in 1965, Ford had a hard time keeping up with demand.
