CL Find Custom Truck?
I saw this 1970 GMC on CL this morning and it does not seem right. The first thing I notice is the paint job it looks like a dodge from the 80's. The guy also says that it has a 400 from a Pontiac. I know that the earlier trucks could have Pontiac motors in them but did they have them as late as 1970?

Re: CL Find Custom Truck?
I'm pretty sure the engine has been changed. Paint is definitely custom. Everyone has a plan. His truck, he can do what he likes. We all do that.

Re: CL Find Custom Truck?
I figured the engine was changed. I was wondering if it was at all possible.

Before I painted my brother's GMC I had a lot of people ask who's old dodge it was. Its the square front end and cross bar grill.
