69 GMC Custom Big Block Chevy 396 454 C10

Description for GMC 1500 1969

Hello, for your consideration is my personal truck. It isn't yet perfect, but has many good qualities that make it stand out from others. For instance, it was optioned with a 396 and turbo 400, black paint with a white roof, air conditioning (not currently connected), power steering, power brakes, and gauges.I had replaced the brakes a while ago, but the booster needs to be replaced. The front suspension is tight and has a fresh alignment. The original engine and transmission were long gone when I bought the truck, but I replaced it with another big block Chevy. It is a 454 that is balanced with new pistons, new stainless valves, new Lunati Cam, lifters, springs, locks, and retainers as well as the normal items during rebuilds. I have an aluminum intake manifold with a Holley 850 double pumper and headers. The transmission was rebuilt. It is a Turbohydramitic 400 with new sprag, clutches, steels, seals, etc.. This truck performs well.This is a running and driving truck. I've used this truck for trips up to 150 mile round trips with no problems other than needing another brake booster.I was planning on installing a fuel vapor return line, but never completed it.This is a very solid truck. It has been in Texas since new. This is not a rusted out Northern truck. It still has the factory crayon markings on the firewall.
