One of One GMC you've never heard of (its not the Palomino)

Gents, I recently learned of this one-off show truck made by General Motors for the 1956 year (one year before the Palomino) the GMC Bluegrass Runabout.

I would love to see color photos of this beauty, as I have a blue and white 56 GMC Suburban and recreating this truck would be fun!
